If you've ever had pancakes for dinner or pizza for breakfast, then this pancake pizza recipe is just for you.
The pancake pizza recipe is the brainchild of Steph from plainchicken.com. Basically, the recipe is a sugarless pancake batter that features cut up pizza toppings. The particular recipe calls for sausage, pepperoni and mushrooms, but there's no reason you couldn't substitute your own favorite toppings like green peppers, ham, or anchovies.
Once you've cooked up the batter in a standard frying pan, the flapjack stack needs only a drizzling of pizza sauce (either store bought or homemade) instead of maple syrup. On the other hand, if you're feeling adventurous, you could try the pancake pizza with maple syrup.
