Hear that rooster crowing, "Come on, get up, get up!"?  Well, if he doesn't get you up and going, then maybe this pancake recipe will do the trick!
Farmer Boy "Rise & Shine Pancakes"
Ingredients:
  • 2 Cups of biscuit mix (homemade or store bought)
  • 1/4 Cup of quick Oats
  • 2 eggs
  • 3/4 Cup of whole milk
  • 4 Tablespoons of sugar (divided)
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons of corn starch
  • 3/4 Cup of orange juice
Directions: In a sauce pan, combine 2 Tablespoons of sugar, the corn starch, and the orange juice.  Bring to a boil, stirring.  Remove from the heat and cool, till it is lukewarm.
In a bowl, add the milk and eggs to the dry mix and oats, stir to mix.
When the orange juice mixture is cool, add it to the batter.  Let this rest for about 15 minutes, while you prepare the optional syrup.

Optional syrup ingredients:
  • 1/2 Cup of butter
  • 1/3 Cup of honey
  • 2 Tablespoons of frozen Orange Juice concentrate (thawed)
Directions: In a microwave bowl, or a sauce pan on the stove, combine the ingredients and bring to a boil.

On a hot griddle, pour out the batter, by 1/4 cup at a time, and cook the pancakes.
Serve hot cakes, topped with a pad of butter and your choice of syrup. 

This lip-smackin' breakfast should get you goin'!  And even if you live in the city, you'll feel like you live on the farm and hear that rooster crowing!
