It all begins with peanut butter.
Don’t most things start with peanut butter? Lunches as a kid, first days of school, breakfast every morning…
Maybe it’s just me.
But sometimes, I think my life revolves around peanut butter (and chocolate, of course). Not that I’m complaining.
I used the recipe for whole wheat chocolate peanut butter pancakes, left out the chocolate, and then smothered the pancakes with melted peanut butter and a jam topping.
I love smothering.
Peanut Butter Pancakes
serves 3-4
2 cups whole wheat pastry flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
2 eggs, well beaten
2 cups milk
2 tablespoons canola oil
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon cinnamon
3 tablespoons peanut butter, melted + additional for drizzling
Stir together dry ingredients. Add eggs, milk, vanilla and oil. Stir until dry ingredients are moistened. Stir in peanut butter. Cook on preheated pan until bubbles form and edges start to dry. Flip and cook until lightly browned.
Top with additional melted peanut butter and jelly.
Jelly Topping
1/4 cup strawberries
1/4 cup blueberries
1/4 cup jam of choice
1-2 tablespoons water
1-2 tablespoons maple syrup
In a small saucepan, combine blueberries, strawberries and water over low heat. Mash the berries and add jam, stirring until mixture becomes mostly liquid and warm. Stir in syrup. Drizzle over pancakes.
Favorite peanut butter and jelly combo?

I am so making these when I go home for my dad…he loves PB&J, especially goobers ; )
Oh my word…the shots of the ooey gooey peanut butter are MONEY. I want to stick my tongue under the PB waterfall in the first one.
Truth is, I don’t really love jelly that much, but give me PB an anything and I’m happy!
Girl, you’re going to kill me.
That is a stack of heaven right there! I could really put PB&J on just about anything.
I do adore them in oats!
WOW! and my BF and I thought we were the only folks in the world who melted peanut butter and put it on our pancakes!! I like to make 3 small ones for myself and spread my homemdae raspberry jam in the middle of them and then pour the peanut butter on top! It’s sooo good!!
I have a 5k saturday morning but Sunday you bet your booty I’ll be making these! Thanks for sharing!! YUMM!!
That sounds delish… like layered pb and j!
These look AMAZING!!! Cannot wait to try them. Pure genius.
Yum!! My favoriteeee pancakes are whole-wheat chocolate chip with melted peanut butter on top! But definitely going to have to give this a try next time : )
Drooooollll. Those look amazing!!
These look absolutely perfect. I love pancakes. I love peanut butter. I love jam. I love this recipe.
This looks absolutely heavenly! *bookmarked*
Holy cow! YUM! There are no other words to describe this!
Ohmygaaa that peanut butter looks like it’s practically dripping onto my computer screen. I almost licked it. Yummm. Never had PB on my pancakes. Not sure why cause I love the stuff! Oh right, because I don’t make pancakes. Well, maybe once a year
I love PB on pancakes!!!!! I hardly ever even use maple syrup anymore b/c PB is so yummy when it gets all melty!! Such a great combo!!
SICK . . . and by that I mean delicious.
growing up, that is how we ate pancakes! never with syrup, always with PB&J. thanks for the trip down memory lane. also, as i just caught up on 9 posts:
1. thanks for the pumpkin pie spice recipe. do you realize how expensive that stuff is pre made?

4. those buffalo chicken cups and the stuffing recipe.. both starred! YUM!

My goodness! I just got really excited when I saw this and I’m not even that into PB HAHA. Unbelievable! [chels]
All I can say is yum. I LOVE PB&J…in any form. You make the 5 year old staple look so…well…pretty!
And I missed out on the commenting yesterday so I’ll give my two cents now,(I wonder why it’s two???Hmmm why not three…anyways…) I LOVED when you were blogging about your life while you were on vacation! You have such a fun personality! Can’t wait to read more!
Thank you so much! That is exactly how I am hoping to start blogging now.
Okay, WOW. that looks like my kind of breakfast!! I love all things peanut butter & jelly!
Uh….yum.
That’s all I have to say. I have to go clean up the drool on my desk now.
Peanut butter makes the world go round! LOL
Oh your Honorable Culinary Highness,
I bow down to thee and your ingenuity. PLease, accept my bow of worship.
But seriously, freaking good idea. I would just add crunchy bits of bacon into the pancake batter, and some fresh bananas for an Elvis twist.
GAHHH your KILLIN me (smalls) hehe
love that!!
Total food porn, love it. PB is my favorite topping, filling, by the spoonful you name it. These pancakes make me smile big ’cause I know they taste great! xo
We tried this but prefer PB and syrup. It is a go-to stick-to-the-ribs favorite during the winter
Good thing my boyfriend is allergic to peanuts and I cannot have peanut butter in the house… because I would NOT be able to stop eating these!! This sounds amazing!
this terrific idea couldn’t be depicted more beautifully. i’m personally a fan of peanut butter and maple syrup on my pancakes, but i’ll definitely give this a go!
Wow..I’m eating and these are making me hungrier.
Wow these look amazing.. not a good idea to look at this before lunchtime! Haha. Can’t wait to try these out.
what a fun idea for pancakes!
I have died and gone to food heaven…yum!
These look delicious! I have just started using wheat flour and am looking for new recipes. I will definitely try these.
These are sooooo amazing!!! Won’t ever use syrup again. I do believe I have to let my belt out a notch after eating these, I couldn’t stop!!!!!
I am so glad you liked them!
This looks DELISH! Personally, i like to eat my pancakes with peanut butter and applesauce, YUM!
OH EM GEE. I just found your blog. This looks killer….must make….
What a great idea! Everyone loves PB, and how fun to kick off the day with pancakes with a twist! Sounds amazing.
Great idea! I made a version of these this morning. Except instead of the jelly topping, I drizzled honey over them. Yum!
Off to make em
YUM! 100th comment, yay!
hi Jessica!
Just made this for my hubby today. I even put them on my blog.
Thanks for a yummy recipe, the pb was a great idea!!! I just melted butter and pb for the topping and he added a touch of honey. (he is not a jam/jelly guy) and he was lovin’ them! Thanks again, sweetie!
Hi Polly! I am so glad you liked the pancakes.
I just checked them out and they look perfect!
I…. I am drooling. So bad. Holy hell… I want these…. I LOVE the taste of melted peanut butter. Oh my god… I must make these VERY soon!
For whatever reason, a lot of people are predicting/projecting the series against the Astros.

I was looking for a fun recipe to celebrate National Pancake Day with, and this was a home run! They came out amazzzzing! I had a add a little more flour than called for to make the consistency right, but that was probably b/c I used Skim milk. These were delish. I want to try every single thing on your website. I just love the way you make such fun food combinations. I told my husband to get prepared for some awesome meals/ desserts because I found a secret website
