Two breakfast basics combine in this ultimate on-the-go recipe!

Let’s face it, mornings can be busy and we don’t always have the time to stand over the stove and whip up a nutritious and delicious breakfast! This recipe solves that problem by layering Birch Benders original pancakes in a jar with yogurt, granola, blueberries and almonds to create a pancake parfait that will leave you feeling full and satisfied.

The great thing about this meal-in-a-jar is that you can prep the pancakes ahead of time. Simply add the directed amount of water to Birch Benders original pancake mix, stir, cook and pop the finished pancakes in the freezer. When ready to use, all you have to do is defrost them in the microwave or toaster oven, let them cool and layer with the remaining ingredients. If you have time to make the pancakes in the morning, just make sure they cool completely before adding them to the jar.

This recipe is also customizable, so get creative and try a different Birch Benders pancake mix from the breakfast aisle at Heinen’s, or switch up the yogurt flavor and fruit. The options are truly endless!
