The Ingredients
Here’s what you’ll need to make Bacon Pancake Dippers (the exact measurements and full recipe instructions are below in the easy-to-print recipe card):
Pancake mix – we like Bisquick, but use any pancake mix you like. Be sure to check the box to see what ingredients you need to make the pancakes. You will want to make enough batter for 16 pancakes since there are usually 16 slices of bacon in one pound.
Bacon – you’ll need one pound or 16 slices of bacon. Cook the bacon however you like before you make the pancake sticks.
Maple syrup – any maple syrup you like will be perfect for dipping.
How to Make Bacon Pancake Dippers
Cook the bacon using your preferred method until the bacon is crisp. Set aside to cool. Prepare the pancake mix according to the package instructions.
Heat a griddle over medium heat. Ladle the pancake mix onto the griddle in the same width and length as one slice of bacon. Immediately lay one slice of bacon onto the pancake, then drizzle 1-2 teaspoons of additional pancake batter over the bacon, but do not entirely cover the strip of bacon.
Cook the pancake until golden brown on one side, then flip and continue to cook until the pancake is fully set. Remove from the griddle then repeat this process with the remaining pancake batter and bacon.
Serve the bacon pancakes with maple syrup for dipping.
How to Store Leftover Pancakes
Keep the leftover bacon pancakes in an airtight food storage container. Refrigerate for up to three days. Individual portions can be reheated in the microwave.
