Brown Sugar Pancakes

For the pancakes:
In a large bowl, add flour, baking powder, and brown sugar and whisk together until well mixed. Add in eggs, buttermilk, melted butter and vanilla extract and whisk until batter just comes together. Leave the lumps there. No need for a smooth batter.

Heat a griddle or non stick skillet over medium heat and melt extra butter. Pour about 1/4 of a cup of batter onto the griddle surface in a circular pattern and allow to sit until bubbles form and the bottom is golden brown and crisp.

Flip over the pancake and cook until golden brown and crisp on the other side. Remove the pancake and place in a warm oven (about 225ºF) and repeat the process until all pancakes are done.

For the bacon maple butter:
Add butter and maple syrup to a microwave safe container and melt together. Add some of the bacon bits to the syrup and leave the rest for garnish.

Lay pancakes on your plate and add bacon bits to the top pancake in your stack. Pour syrup mixture over pancakes and enjoy.
