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
♥

Mmmm…looks delicious!
Yeehaa!
I’m gonna cook me up some! 🙂
Seriously wish I was with you sharing in all of this this week.

Your photos are enticing.
Sadle ’em up cowgirl!! Loving the idea of big fat pancakes for breakfast
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 🙂
Hahaha… yeehaa!! Right back at ya’!! xx
That looks awesome. And I even have a little buckaroo to try it out on!
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. 🙂
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!!
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!
I’ll send em right on up to you.. You’ve got the best instructional dance video:D
Hahaha! I am glad you liked the silly video!
Mmmmm! I knew those pancakes would be delicious!
I did!! You are a great dancer:D
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!
My lil’ buckaroos would love these flapjacks! And I think I’ll call them flapjacks too. They’ll get a kick out of that. 🙂
WOW!
Being a “pancake” lover (Easterner), I’ll have to try these. Thanks for the recipe, they sound great.
Hahaha.. we’re Westerners.. and love ’em too:D
I was born on pancake day (Shrove Tuesday). Those’ll keep your Lil’ Buckaroos going!
Well.. you’re just the luckiest!!! You should be allowed to have pancakes every day then!
Delicious. Love pancakes and I’m always looking for a great recipe. Visiting from Susie’s blog:)
I found your blog as well:D Happy to be following you, Stacy!!
I stopped over from Susie’s blog because I can’t turn away from a post about food! Great recipe!
I’m following you now as well.. your pups are adorable!!
Stopped over from Susie’s blog!
Oh, wow, am I glad I found you! This is wonderful! Love pancakes.
You’re quite the prolific author!! I’m happy to be a new follower:D
Great Post – you could eat these anytime of the day – BONUS! Have a Beautiful Day:)
You too xx
Even thought I don’t make them enough I love pancakes. Good luck with developing the gluten free version. 😉
I’ll need luck.. the batch I tried were dreadful, so I gave up.. for the time being!
Yum! Looking forward to the gluten free recipe 🙂 I love pancakes, especially on a Sunday morning!
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!!
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!!
So totally good looking my friend, these pancakes look gorgeous! I love their name 😀
Cheers
Choc Chip Uru
Thanks CCU 😀
Both of my guys love pancakes, so I’m thinking I need to give these a go.
OOO those look good. BEAUTIFUL blog. Thank you to Susie for sending me here.
Thanks.. happily following you now:D
Looks like the perfect recipe for all the energy you need to get through Stampede, Smidge! And perhaps a beer or ten.
Yes.. the beer.. someone’s gotta do it, it might as well be me? 😀
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!
Thanks Sarah.. I love collecting “flow” blue plates:D
Those sounds fantastic! Very hearty.
I’m loving this Stampede theme!
They look delicious! Pancakes are one of my favourite things to wake up to 🙂
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
oh yummy! A perfect breakfast Smidge :0
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
We used to have breakfast for dinner regularly at home when I was a little girl. Nothing could make me happier!
Very healthy! These will be good for Mr Misky. Thanks!
Great post! Love the idea and the pics!

Yee haw! How is that line dancing coming along? Have fun flipping those Flapjacks. They sound healthy and yummy.
you are really a champion blogger. great work and always a lovely comment stream Cheers!
Yum! Sounds like you’re enjoying the festivities! Have fun! 🙂
Nothing like breakfast with a theme. Makes it taste much better. I just popped in from Susie’s blog party.
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
Hahaha.. Thanks, spree.. I’ll try to find me some ponies for ya’ll and we’ll go on a little trail ride…
I see you like these with all the trimmings too, big smiles here! 🙂
Not very good on making pancakes, but this I have to try someday .. same with Wendy’s ricotta pancakes. This looks so good.
I love that these have spelt and buckwheat flour! That means they are healthy for me, right? 😉
