Hybrid Pancake Breads

Trader Joe's New Pancake Bread is a Cross Between Two Breakfast Favorites

Trader Joe's is brining two of the most beloved breakfast staples together to form an innovative new product called Pancake Bread. If you're someone who loves the taste of pancakes, but can't be bothered to whip up a fresh batch during the week, this bread is a game-changer.

Trader Joe's describes its new Pancake Bread creation as "a twist on a buttermilk short stack, baked into a sweet, moist loaf." In other words, the bread boasts the moist and crumbly texture of coffee cake, but the flavor of a stack of fluffy buttermilk pancakes slathered in maple syrup.

Though it's unclear if Pancake Bread is a limited-edition item, it is clear that consumers are already waiting to get their hands on a loaf of their own.
