Cook a big breakfast for their kiddo's first day of school?? I'm making my boys eggs, bacon, and some pancakes. Don't worry, the syrup is sugar free. Lol.

I usually don't make them a big breakfast. We do big breakfasts on the weekends.

This is pretty much what I cook every morning.  Though we don't eat wheat so our pancakes are made from eggs, peanut butter, and smashed bananas.  My daughter is enrolled in a virtual school so I'm not rushed in the mornings.

Not before school. Only on the weekends. I have one child that doesn't eat eggs. Two of my kids start school tomorrow. The third is going into kindergarten and starts on the 21st. The other two or in 1st grade and 7th grade.

That sounds really good! Did you get the recipe somewhere or just come up with it? I'd love to try them.

We usually do big breakfasts on Saturdays if we don't have anywhere to be. Sometimes on Sundays. But for the first day of school it just depends on what they want. They usually just want the norm.

I found the recipe when googling wheat free pancakes one day.  Here is the recipe that I found.

"Preheat your pan on low, slowly melting a dollop of butter

 

2 mashed bananas

2 eggs

1 teaspoon baking powder

2 tablespoons of peanutbutter

1 tablespoon cinnamon

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 teaspoon nutmeg

1 teaspoon allspice

 

Beat the eggs until frothy in a separate bowl, then add all ingredients to the mashed bananas. Voila! Delicious gluten free pancake batter. Try not to eat it raw, I dare you.

 

I have found that these cook best when cooked just below medium heat. I cook them at a 4 on my stove. They work best if you make small pancakes as they are quite delicate and easy to break when flipping if they are too big."

my son has been talking about riding the bus for months and it comes so early that if I cooked breakfast he wouldn't get to ride the bus unless he is up at 5 am.

I only do big breakfasts on weekends as well.

I do stock up on things they like, waffles, cinnamon french toast, cereal, breakfast drinks...so they can get as much sleep as possible.

I would be happy to- my kids don't like to eat before about 9 o'clock, and the only breakfast foods my older kids will eat so far are sausage, fruit and cereal. I tried feeding it to them today at 8 and they wouldn't eat, so before school? Only if they woke up really early some day... And of course, if they decide they like different foods, I'd feed it to them.

(they will probably eat a yogurt and maybe a banana)
