Ingredients
1 pkg of your favorite bacon
1 CorEats Pancake & Waffle Mix
¾ cup milk*
3 eggs
¼ cup oil**
1 tsp vanilla, optional
*Use your favorite dairy or non-dairy
**We recommend coconut or avocado oil, but any will do, including your favorite dairy or non-dairy butter.
Instructions
For the Bacon:
1. Preheat your oven to 400°F. Line a baking tray with parchment paper, placing the bacon side-by-side on the tray.
2. Cook the bacon for 10-20 minutes or until it's reached your desired level of crispiness. Make sure to check on it after about 10 minutes, as some ovens cook faster. Remove the tray from the oven and transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate.
3. It’s best to keep an eye on the bacon past the 10-minute mark to ensure it’s cooked to your personal preference. Cooking times vary greatly based on your oven: Some bake for 18 minutes, while others have burnt bacon after 15. your cooking time should fall between 10 to 20 minutes.
Tip: If you're rendering the bacon fat, line a fine mesh sieve with a paper towel. Then place the sieve over a glass storage container and pour the bacon fat from the sheet tray into the sieve. Cover the glass storage container and place it in the refrigerator for future cooking needs.
For the Pancake Batter:
1. Once your bacon is fully cooked and set aside, you will want to prepare your pancake batter. Empty the contents of your CorEats Pancake & Waffle Mix into a medium bowl. Add your milk, eggs, oil, and vanilla (if using) and whisk until well combined. Set aside.
2. Heat your skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Once fully heated, add oil or butter.
3. Dip bacon strips onto pancake batter to generously coat and turn onto a hot griddle. Cook for 1-2 minutes on each side, OR until the batter bubbles and is lightly browned. Continue until all bacon strips have been prepared. Remove from heat and serve!
Notes
*Any remaining batter can be made into pancakes using your already-warmed skillet or griddle!
*You may choose to drizzle with maple syrup, sprinkle with powdered sugar, or just enjoy them as they are!
