Cranberry and Macadamia Nut Pancake Recipe with White Chocolate Chips

Last Updated on December 18, 2020 by Diane Hoffmaster

Last week, my husband was out of town. As a result of his absence, I adopted the ‘eat whatever the heck we want for dinner’ rule.  I just hate going through a lot of work for a big dinner when it is just me and the kids eating!  One night, I decided we were doing breakfast for dinner and out of sheer laziness I grabbed for the box of premade pancake mix in the pantry.  Only to find it almost completely empty.  Great.  Now I need to find a pancake recipe that is quick and easy.  I also wanted to find one that added in fruit and nuts to alleviate my guilt over feeding them pancakes for dinner.  I whipped up a pancake recipe in just minutes that was creative and tasty!  This easy pancake recipe has cranberries, macadamia nuts, and white chocolate chips  and the kids were thrilled with our breakfast for dinner night!
