I asked about this and it turned out to be a little less interesting than what I had imagined. I resolved that sometime this weekend I would bring into existence what I had in mind.</p> <p>This morning it happened.</p> <p>I started with this pancake recipe from <a href="http://veganyumyum.com/2008/02/easy-weekend-pancakes/" title="Vegan Pancakes" target="_blank">VeganYumYum</a>. I made about 8 of those and then I added a bunch more soy milk to thin out the batter. With the thin batter I made the bowl-sized pancakes, plus a few more small ones to put on top.</p> <p>Then assembly started:</p> <p><img alt="image" src="http://media.tumblr.com/83a48af41a886ecd028341dd7afef774/tumblr_inline_mhnqcnVHAm1qz4rgp.jpg"/></p> <ul><li><span>I started with the thin bowl-sized pancakes and lined the bottom of the bowls with that.</span></li> </ul><p><img alt="image" src="http://media.tumblr.com/75bb5d5c2130e5aac5884ab1da860b13/tumblr_inline_mhnqeiogvI1qz4rgp.jpg"/></p> <ul><li><span>Next came a layer of bananas and strawberries.</span></li> </ul><p><img alt="image" src="http://media.tumblr.com/52d43658d83fb1a8d9af7b16c7ff229c/tumblr_inline_mhnqgzirto1qz4rgp.jpg"/></p> <ul><li>Third was a layer made up of a few of the thicker pancakes with peanut butter on top of them. </li> </ul><p><img alt="image" src="http://media.tumblr.com/2040e6201c48295fc4147d4a9142c524/tumblr_inline_mhnqroNlmW1qz4rgp.jpg"/></p> <p></p> <ul><li><span>On top of that went a layer of blueberries and strawberries.</span></li> </ul><p><img alt="image" src="http://media.tumblr.com/d20bd00807d7a5a11ae4f7870e800981/tumblr_inline_mhnqtoanl01qz4rgp.jpg"/></p> <ul><li><span>This was followed by a layer of small pancakes</span></li> </ul><p><img alt="image" src="http://media.tumblr.com/6dd6b8b53e9aa9a9f4c3f1612eee4f31/tumblr_inline_mhnqstuPjv1qz4rgp.jpg"/></p> <ul><li><span>And the whole thing was topped off with maple syrup.</span></li> </ul><p><span>For a first effort, everything turned out ok.</span></p>http://blog.whitneyajones.com/post/42205640229http://blog.whitneyajones.com/post/42205640229Sun, 03 Feb 2013 13:59:00 -0500foodveganbreakfastpancakesBrooklynvegetarian<p>[These are numbered so I can keep track, they aren&#8217;t ranked]</p> <ul><li>1.
