Lil’ Buckaroo Flapjacks

If you want your little Buckaroos to grow up big and strong enough to

 rastle a wild pony or two…

serve ‘em up a stack of these healthy flapjacks
with fixins like

bacon, hash browns and maple syrup

then put on them western duds and head on down to the
Calgary Stampede Grounds

for some rides and the Grand Stand Show

♥

{ I’m working up a recipe for a gluten-free pancakes.. it’s just not perfected quite yet! }

Your photos are enticing.

Sadle ‘em up cowgirl!! Loving the idea of big fat pancakes for breakfast

Chica AndaluzaJuly 11, 2012 - 8:02 am

I was going to say Yeehaaa but Val beat me to it. Hey, I´m going to say it anyway…yeehaaa! Love pancakes, really should make some again soon :)

sfbell09July 11, 2012 - 8:21 am

That looks awesome. And I even have a little buckaroo to try it out on!

ChgoJohnJuly 11, 2012 - 8:23 am

Cowboy boots, flapjacks, Buckaroos, and a “Yes’m”. My but you’ve taken this stampede thing to heart — or is CTV running a Bonanza marathon?
Your blueberry flapjacks sound terrific, Barb, and I really need to make myself some. Whether for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, flapjacks are a great meal and I don’t serve them often enough. But, if Alberta Barb says to make ‘em, I reckon I oughta. :)

susielindauJuly 11, 2012 - 8:24 am

Yeeeeeeha! Love those buckaroo pancakes! Great choice for today’s blog party! The guests will need something to stick to their ribs after dancing and mingling all day!

KristyJuly 11, 2012 - 8:49 am

My lil’ buckaroos would love these flapjacks! And I think I’ll call them flapjacks too. They’ll get a kick out of that. :)

Just A SmidgenJuly 11, 2012 - 8:51 am

Hahaha.. I remember Bonanza!! Who was my favorite.. Hmm.. Not Hoss.. I think it was Little Joe because he reminded me of my dad:D I think I’m Stampede crazy because I haven’t been around for it for so long.. It’s like everything old is new again! You get on up here and we’ll show ya’ll around and make ya some flapjacks!!

Just A SmidgenJuly 11, 2012 - 8:51 am

I’ll send em right on up to you.. You’ve got the best instructional dance video:D

niasunsetJuly 11, 2012 - 8:53 am

WOW!

susielindauJuly 11, 2012 - 9:00 am

Hahaha! I am glad you liked the silly video!
Mmmmm! I knew those pancakes would be delicious!

vbholmesJuly 11, 2012 - 9:01 am

Being a “pancake” lover (Easterner), I’ll have to try these. Thanks for the recipe, they sound great.

Just A SmidgenJuly 11, 2012 - 9:02 am

I did!! You are a great dancer:D

Mad DogJuly 11, 2012 - 9:08 am

I was born on pancake day (Shrove Tuesday). Those’ll keep your Lil’ Buckaroos going!

susielindauJuly 11, 2012 - 9:10 am

Thanks! I am truly embracing my dorkiness! I may join my 20-year-old daughter (who is on CU’s dance team) and attend a new pop dance class. I guess they teach pole dancing too! Hahaha! I don’t think my arms are strong enough for that, but can you imagine that video?? Hahaha!

Stacy GreenJuly 11, 2012 - 9:12 am

Delicious. Love pancakes and I’m always looking for a great recipe. Visiting from Susie’s blog:)

Even thought I don’t make them enough I love pancakes. Good luck with developing the gluten free version. ;)

Coleen PatrickJuly 11, 2012 - 1:05 pm

Yum! Looking forward to the gluten free recipe :) I love pancakes, especially on a Sunday morning!

foodblogandthedogJuly 11, 2012 - 1:41 pm

Weird! See flapjacks are like granola bars where I come from but these sound so delish I’m gonna try a vegan version with oat milk and flaxmeal egg replacement. I have blueberries so breakfast tomorrow sorted, thanks!!

Choc Chip UruJuly 11, 2012 - 2:29 pm

So totally good looking my friend, these pancakes look gorgeous! I love their name :D

Cheers

CourtneyJuly 11, 2012 - 2:41 pm

Both of my guys love pancakes, so I’m thinking I need to give these a go.

jbw0123July 11, 2012 - 3:08 pm

OOO those look good. BEAUTIFUL blog. Thank you to Susie for sending me here.

Eva TaylorJuly 11, 2012 - 3:14 pm

Looks like the perfect recipe for all the energy you need to get through Stampede, Smidge! And perhaps a beer or ten.

SarahJuly 11, 2012 - 5:06 pm

Oh my! These look so yummy Smidge. And I just love your plate! Sounds like you’re having a wonderful time with the events this week. Yay!

Rufus' Food and Spirits GuideJuly 11, 2012 - 5:16 pm

MichelleJuly 11, 2012 - 6:15 pm

I’m loving this Stampede theme!

Carolyn ChanJuly 11, 2012 - 6:42 pm

They look delicious! Pancakes are one of my favourite things to wake up to :)

hotlyspicedJuly 11, 2012 - 8:37 pm

What gorgeous flapjacks. They’re making me feel very hungry. I would love a stack of these right now with the lemon zest, blueberries and maple syrup – delicious! xx

Just A SmidgenJuly 11, 2012 - 9:02 pm

Well.. you’re just the luckiest!!! You should be allowed to have pancakes every day then!

Just A SmidgenJuly 11, 2012 - 9:02 pm

Just A SmidgenJuly 11, 2012 - 9:14 pm

Different places have different names for the same dish:D That’s awesome and occasionally confusing;) Good luck with the vegan version.. let me know how it goes!!

Just A SmidgenJuly 11, 2012 - 9:38 pm

Hahaha… yeehaa!! Right back at ya’!! xx

Yes.. the beer.. someone’s gotta do it, it might as well be me? :D

TandyJuly 12, 2012 - 12:40 am

oh yummy! A perfect breakfast Smidge :0

Three Well BeingsJuly 12, 2012 - 12:59 am

These sound wonderful! I love buckwheat, and I think the addition of spelt would make these really special. One of my favorites is ‘breakfast for dinner’ and these would fit into that plan just beautifully! They look so good in your photo! :-) Debra

MiskyJuly 12, 2012 - 3:55 am

Very healthy! These will be good for Mr Misky. Thanks!

michellesgloriouseats2012July 12, 2012 - 7:05 am

newsy1July 12, 2012 - 8:47 pm

Nothing like breakfast with a theme. Makes it taste much better. I just popped in from Susie’s blog party.

spreeJuly 13, 2012 - 8:12 am

I’ve just restled me up some ponies and could use me a good tall stack of them flapjacks, missy! Thank you…that’s a mighty fine recipe! xoxo

Just A SmidgenJuly 14, 2012 - 10:29 am

Hahaha.. Thanks, spree.. I’ll try to find me some ponies for ya’ll and we’ll go on a little trail ride…

girlinafoodfrenzyJuly 19, 2012 - 7:03 pm

Thanks Sarah.. I love collecting “flow” blue plates:D

Barbara Bamber | justasmidgenJuly 19, 2012 - 11:10 pm

We used to have breakfast for dinner regularly at home when I was a little girl. Nothing could make me happier!

vivekaJuly 23, 2012 - 11:19 pm

Not very good on making pancakes, but this I have to try someday .. same with Wendy’s ricotta pancakes. This looks so good.

ChristinaJuly 27, 2012 - 3:43 pm

I love that these have spelt and buckwheat flour! That means they are healthy for me, right? ;)
