Pancake toast

Pancake Toast is a fun twist on classic pancakes. Below I provide you with the recipe to prepare these delicious snacks that combine the softness of pancakes with the convenience of toast. Since we’re on the subject of international cuisine with an Italian touch, you could use Italian hazelnut cream or good chestnut honey as toppings!
