Blue-Beer-y Pancakes

What could make delicious blueberry pancakes made with craft beer even more tempting? Bacon of course! The Smart Kitchen brings us blue-beer-y pancakes with bacon!

Prep Time: 15 minutes | Yield: 4

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups multigrain pancake mix

1 bottle wheat beer of your choice

2 Tbsp applesauce

Berries (blueberry, strawberry, raspberry, or blackberry depending on the beer you chose)

4 strips cooked bacon

Directions

To make these pancakes, mix together batter and make pancakes as directed on the package, substituting apple sauce for oil and wheat beer for water.
Adding bacon to the batter is totally optional—but encouraged.
Add berries before flipping (just when the batter starts to bubble, and before the bubbles start to pop).
Serve pancakes with syrup, whip cream, butter or yogurt.

IPA Pineapple Teriyaki Skewers

IPA pineapple teriyaki is a fragrant, flavor-loaded sauce with versatile end uses. In this dish from Chef Chris Perrine, it is applied as a glaze over shrimp and fresh pineapple skewers. The same sauce can serve as a dip for grilled veggies, can be drizzled over seared fish & rice bowls or used as a marinade for pork, beef or chicken. The specific flavor profile of the IPA is to the discretion of the recipe preparer.
