Try "Brinner" with Krusteaz!


Fun fact: In a national survey, Krusteaz found that nine out of ten (91 percent) Americans say they eat breakfast for dinner, with 56 percent doing so once a month or more often. For families, the trend is even more prevalent as 67 percent of respondents with children in the household say they have breakfast for dinner once a month or more.



My kids love pancakes and I for the life of me seem to have a issue making them, I think its because you need patience which when trying to feed 5 screaming kids I sometimes lack. Krusteaz came to me with a proposition, trying breakfast for dinner.


Krusteaz sent me some pancake mix for me to enjoy a nice breakfast for dinner along with some squeeze bottles so I could get creative. Being this is my obligation I decided I would try once again to make pancakes. I started with using Krusteaz Light & Fluffy Buttermilk pancake mix, which you can also purchase in 8 different flavors like pumpkin, chocolate chip, and what I will now be on a hunt for apple cinnamon and more.

Since I for the life of me cannot master a pancake I was unable to use the squeeze bottle, because my mix was to thick. I did however put my own personal spin on the Krusteaz Light & Fluffy Buttermilk pancakes I added Vanilla Extract along with purple food coloring. I find it fun to add color to that which is white just to change things up.


I mixed it all up although I must say, it was a little clumpy not horrible but a little, I then proceeded to pour out my mix onto the griddle pan. Wow I finally made pancakes that were not burnt and cooked all the way through! I was so proud of myself. My kids all gathered at the table, and each enjoyed 3 purple pancakes for dinner.


I love having breakfast for dinner it is one of my most favorite meals and I hope we can make it a family tradition  to have a breakfast night once a week. My husband, myself and the girls miss out on breakfast often, because my husband goes into work at 5am, my daughters sleep til noon almost and I am not quite ready for breakfast at 7. My sons get breakfast at school.


Breakfast is truly the best meal for you in any time of day and it taste great. Krusteaz pancake mixes come in so many great flavors who knows what you will discover. Did you know Krusteaz also makes Waffle mixes, and even Muffin mixes to mix up your breakfast? Krusteaz would love to challenge everyone to enjoy breakfast for dinner at least once a week through the month of September.
