I love breakfast food!  A few weeks ago we decided to dedicate a whole day to food!  We started with breakfast.  We made blueberry pancakes, pumpkin pancakes (with a few chocolate chips and pecans), and maple and pepper bacon and of course, fresh coffee.  It was delicious!  (We ended the day with an African dish, but you will have to ask Ben about that one!)

To make the bacon we lined a baking sheet with foil and placed the bacon on top.  We put a generous amount of fresh pepper on top.  Then drizzled some maple syrup (the real stuff would have been best, but we were out) on top.  Then we baked it for about 10 minutes, flipped the bacon, added some more pepper and then baked until it reached the perfect crispiness.  It was amazingly simple and tasty.  Clean up was a breeze too.  We just dumped the foil in the trash and rinsed the pan.

Here are some shots of our breakfast feast!
