Blue Cornmeal Pancakes

Mancakes

This is the ultimate savory breakfast compilation: "Sweet/savory hybrids can be tricky sometimes but I think this worked beautifully. We are talking about bacon, cheese, and onions after all, so it wasn't that big of a shock," says Chef John. "The way the chipotle-spiced maple syrup brought everything together was a risk well rewarded."

Pumpkin Cornmeal Pancakes

Add sweet, fall flavor to your cornmeal pancakes with the help of brown sugar, cinnamon, cloves, vanilla extract, and canned pumpkin. Reviewer Bea Alcaraz has a unique alternative to maple syrup that pairs well with this recipe: Try cutting up a banana and letting it simmer in a skillet with a little butter. Smear it on top of the pancakes and serve.
