Pancakes, waffles and flapjacks have been staples on America’s breakfast tables since, well, ever since there were breakfast tables. They’re simple, delicious, filling and a great way to start the day. But not much has changed over time from your grandma’s recipe. That is until our friends at Kodiak Cakes came up with a better batter. A 100% whole wheat, protein packed, non-GMO mix that is loaded with vitamins, antioxidants and other good stuff to fuel your body.

So we had an idea. What if instead of mixing their power mix with water or milk, we added a can of RISE Nitro Oat Milk Mocha? A little extra energy and some smooth, delicious chocolatey taste. And then, what if we topped our creation with paleo/semisweet chocolate chips? What better way make staying home just a little more enjoyable?

Drumroll please. More drumroll. Ok, you can stop now. The result is freaking awesome. You may never want to start your day any other way. And our apologies to grandmas everywhere. Your pancakes were wonderful but it’s time to move on.
