You know, comfort food isn’t just for dinner. A late breakfast full of delectable items served on a Saturday or Sunday morning, is, to me, the definition of comfort food. And, no recipe is more at home for an amazing brunch, or a late morning “adult” breakfast than my Bourbon Pecan Pancakes recipe.
Pancakes with Flavor!
Look, I love pancakes. I love blueberry ones, plain ones, maple syrup ones, golden syrup ones, and just about any other rendition for a pancake you can come up with. Heck, in Amsterdam I even had them with ham and cheese, and they were awesome! This recipe is more of a take on a brunch pancake as opposed to an everyday breakfast one. There is just enough bourbon in the recipe to give it that subtle, oak-ey, “hint of bourbon,” but not enough to overwhelm.
Pecan Syrup is the Star!
This year I have been packaging a lot of new products, with a lot more to come out soon! If you haven’t tried my pickles and olives, you really need to- they’re awesome! But, one of my very favorite products is my Pecan Syrup! You can use it on ribs, as an addition to a BBQ sauce, or a really delicious pancake syrup!

Bourbon Pecan Pancakes Recipe
- Author: Melissa Cookston
Description
These bourbon pecan pancakes will make the perfect “adult” brunch item or late breakfast with a loved one. I used my Pecan Syrup to give them an amazing finish!
Ingredients
2 cups AP flour
1/4 cup sugar
4 tsp baking powder
pinch of salt
2 cups buttermilk
1/4 cup melted butter, plus more for cooking
2 large eggs, mixed
2 TBS your favorite bourbon (if you want more bourbon flavor, add an extra TBS)
My Pecan Syrup, or your favorite pancake syrup.
Instructions
Mix all dry ingredients together. In a separate bowl, mix wet ingredients together
Pour the wet into the dry and mix until incorporated, but don’t over mix. Let sit 3-4 minutes before cooking. Spoon 2-3 TBS of batter into a medium hot skillet with butter. Cook until bubbles stop appearing on top, and about 1/2 are broken, about 2-3 minutes. Flip over and cook for an additional minute. Serve pancakes with more butter, powdered sugar, and Pecan Syrup.
