3 Recipes for Mother’s Day Weekend

Mother’s Day is a day of letting mom know how much we appreciate her. We’re sharing 3 easy recipes that the rest of the family can prepare, giving mom a break.

Charcuterie boards are all the rage right now, and we can see why! Treat mom to breakfast in bed with a simple breakfast board stacked with pancakes, bacon, and all her favorite fruit to start Mother’s Day off right.

Breakfast Charcuterie Board

Ingredients:

• 1 cup Kodiak Cakes Grizzly Size Buttermilk Powder Cake Mix (#2942)
• 3/4 cup water
• 1 pack Daily’s Hardwood Smoked Honey Cured Thick Cut Bacon (#8463)
• Log Cabin Original Syrup (#1590)
• Fresh fruit of your choice – raspberries, blackberries, blueberries, pineapples, peaches, apples, mango, or pineapple
• 6 Tbsp Kirkland Salted Sweet Cream Butter (#1723)

Instructions:

1. First, start by preheating your oven to 400F. Line a Crestware Baking Sheet (#4020) with a piece of AP Parchment Paper (#1153). Lay the bacon out, and bake for 18-20 minutes or until it’s crispy to your liking, flipping halfway. Remove from the oven and transfer to a paper towel-lined baking sheet.
2. Meanwhile, prepare the pancakes. Stir the pancake mix and water until the batter is combined (Do Not Overbeat). Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto a heated and greased pan or griddle. Cook On Medium-High Heat, or 375F, until bubbles form on the top. Flip and continue to cook until golden brown.
3. To assemble the board, lay the pancakes in an S shape across the board from one corner to the opposite. Add syrup to a small bowl, and set it on the board. Fill the remaining extra space with fruit, bacon, and butter slices. Enjoy!
