Peanut Butter and Jelly Pancakes.
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.

That looks AMAZING! We are HUGE peanut butter lovers in our house!
wow – those look fantastic! Of course I love anything with peanut butter…
Why did I never think of this before? You are a genius! This looks amazing!
OH MY GOD. My mom has restricted me from peanut butter because she thinks I’m eating it too fast. Hmm. Otherwise NOTHING would stop me from making these pancakes.
The best things in life definitely start with peanut butter :-)
Oatmeal! Those pancakes = heaven!
Those pancakes just became my favorite PBJ combination…. wowza.
you have seriously got to be kidding me???
I am so glad to see a new recipe posted today (after your post yesterday)! I love anything PB&J, and these pancakes look incredible! I love the fresh fruit and maple syrup/jam combo…I can’t wait to make these! Thanks for sharing your passion for great food (and life) with us, Jessica!

i am always in full support of something that starts with peanut butter! i wonder if i could add melted peanut butter to my kodiak mix….
Wowsers… talk about creative! I think my kids would flip! :)
Amazing. The pic of the peanut butter being drizzled got me!!! ;)
You know what I like :-)
Total swoon… these pancakes look fantastic! Definitely making these soon. I especially love your homemade berry jelly! I recently made jam-filled pb & banana muffins, and made flourless pb & j thumbprint cookies a while back. Clearly I adore the pb & j combo ;).
why do you do this to me? sigh. off to make pancakes…
I think I just moaned a little bit.
I love a good PB&J combo…
On toast of course, with some banana slices.
I also like making a PB&J “grilled cheese,” minus the cheese part.
The PB totally melts and it is fabulous!
I love them grilled too. So melty and delicious.
Peanut butter IN the pancakes and ON TOP of the pancakes!? Lady – we love.
I love PB on pancakes; I don’t know why I’ve never thought of adding jelly. So smart — looks DELISH!
Look at that melty amazingness. What a great breakfast. Nut butter- protein packed, delicious.
Those looks delicious!!!! I’ve pb and jelly breakfast muffins before and they were pretty fab toO!
Every one of my days starts with pb! :D I have it with my oats every morning.
Never have been a fan of peanut butter and jelly – my brother used to make a grilled peanut butter and jelly and it would ooze out whenever he took a bite.
That being said, your pancakes look amazing!
Those pancakes look insane! Especially the peanut butter dripping down on them – yum! I love to sandwich peanut butter and jelly between graham crackers for a tasty snack :)
That sounds so good!
leave out the jam (I know, I am the Only Person On Earth that doesn’t love pb and j…) and these would be fabulous to me…
in fact, that chocolate you left out? you can go ahead and put it on top with the pb… oh and a side of bacon.
;)
Bacon on the SIDE?! Let’s just go ahead and put it IN the ‘cakes!
I’m more of a peanut butter and honey fan, but that doesn’t stop me from thinking that these look amazing!
I am a huge peanut butter and honey fan too!
heck yes. so good.
When I was young my mom used to make peanut butter waffles. Melted peanut butter is like heaven on Earth. We topped ours with maple syrup instead of jelly. Wow that was one intense breakfast. The jelly topping looks delish. Love that its homemade.
I have a to try this sombo with jelly :)
Woah, I’ve died and gone to elementary school heaven! Where were these when my mom was packing my lunchbox?!
Hm, I think the title of this post should be “orgasmic pb and j.” It just looks THAT good.
These look great! I am a firm believer that you don’t need syrup to have amazing pancakes!
Speechless. Gimme gimme.
Oh my!!! These look insane!!! Almost like dessert!!!
Mmm, you know which way pb&j is (besides above, and classic sandwiches) – on saltine crackers!
I am actually making your PB&J muffins right now!
You’ve got to be kidding me?! This is the best looking breakfast! And yes, everything always starts with peanut butter!!!
I’ve been seeing a lot of PB & J inspired things lately so I think it might be a sign for me to create something similar. Your pancakes look so good and sweet, I want it as a dessert!
Erm, yes please! These look delicious!!
I want to bathe in that melted peanut butter!
Nothing beats PB & J! These look amazing!!! Off to see your FB giveaway! :)
I think it’s impossible to go wrong with peanut butter and jelly–bar cookies, sandwiches, or pancakes!
Thanks for sharing your recipe :)
couldn’t find you on fb :(
YUM! …is all I can say. I haven’t had breakfsat yet and this looks SO GOOD!!
Drool. I love peanut butter and blackberry jelly…on/in anything or straight out of the jar! :)
Mmmm, ooey gooey deliciousness!
This sounds wonderful! I haven’t made pancakes in a couple of weeks, maybe I’ll try them out tomorrow morning! And I’m with you, my life also revolves around p.b. and chocolate, ahaha.
Oh my gosh, completely drooling over my screen at the moment, looks so good!
