Village Inn Pancakes are a delicious breakfast food that is easy to make. They can be served with syrup, fruit, whipped cream, chocolate chips or any other topping you would like. Pancake batter can also be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to three days. This recipe comes from an old Village Inn cookbook I found at my parents’ house when they moved out of state years ago.
The original was handwritten by my great aunt Dorothy who used to work there as a waitress before she had children and never went back after her kids were born because she wanted them to have more than what she did growing up. Nowadays this pancake recipe is one of the things I miss most about my family’s home state!
Today I am going to share with you a village inn pancake recipe that is extremely delicious and easy. The Village Inn is a family-friendly restaurant serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner. It’s tucked away in the corner of your neighbourhood with its own little parking lot that you’ll never have to worry about getting lost trying to find. The waitresses are always friendly and accommodating which makes for an amazing customer service experience. I recommend this place if you’re looking for something quick but the quality or just want a break from cooking up a storm at home!
