Fig Pesto in a pancake?

Yes.

And to top it off, it’s not just any ol’ pesto. ..it’s a delicious combination of fig and Gorgonzola in a fabulous flavored pesto created by Pestos With Panache, which is an amazing brand of delicious pesto’s made with incredible ingredients such as dark chocolate, ancho chile, pumpkin, blueberry, strawberry and much more.

So, what did I do with this fine pesto?

Well, with this brutal Artic chill in the air, there’s nothing cozier than waking up from under my warm covers, slipin’ on my fuzzy slippers and waking up to a warm plate of pancakes…with a fig n’ pesto spin.

And, as always gluten-free.

Of course.

So, go ahead. Curl up in your fuzzy slippers and maybe even stay in bed an extra lil’ bit.  Get cozy, get comfy, get ready for a delicious breakfast and a fabulous morning.

Brew a cup of hot tea.

Turn on a bit o’ holiday music.

Jingle around your kitchen.

Smile.

Because Santa is coming…

And whip up some pesto pancakes.

I assure you…these babies will start your day on the right foot.

One bite at a time.

Mmmmmm.

Enjoy!

Keep warm and enjoy your weekend, foodies!
