Family Favorites Breakfast Recipes

• Ebelskiver — From Denmark comes these delightful pancakes. There are many flavor combinations, and they can even be "filled" with your favorite filling or preserves. These are made in a special cast iron skillet with golf ball-size indentations in it. The skillet may be purchased in many hardware or kitchenware stores.
• Golden Eagle Pancakes
• Huevos Rancheros (Rancher's Eggs) — Huevos rancheros, "rancher's eggs," is a popular breakfast dish consisting of eggs served in the style of the traditional large mid-morning fare on rural Mexican farms. The basic dish is composed of fried eggs served on lightly fried corn tortillas topped with salsa.
• Red or Green Chilaquiles — As with many Mexican dishes, regional and family variations are quite common. Usually, chilaquiles are eaten at breakfast or brunch. This makes them a popular recipe to use leftover tortillas and salsas.
• Sweet Pancakes with Jelly — This is a recipe from my German grandfather. He had a huge vineyard at his house where he also kept bees (the honeycomb honey was fantastic). So grape jelly was always the jelly we used on these pancakes, along with plenty of real butter.
• The Very Best Waffles — Cornstarch is the secret for crispy waffles. Cornstarch guarantees that your waffles will be crisp on the outside and tender on the inside.
