Fluffy Pancakes with Nutella and Strawberry-Banana Salsa – Perfect for a special breakfast or a lazy weekend brunch. Spread the Happy! #spreadthehappy

My family looks forward to breakfast on the weekend – it means no cereal or oatmeal for them! The weekend is really the only time I make breakfast – unless we have breakfast for dinner! That doesn’t happen very often though.

Did you know, International Pancake Tuesday is coming up?! (Mark your calendars – it’s Tuesday, 2/17). I love Nutella® (who doesn’t?!) – and it just so happens to be my favorite pancake topping! It makes me want to “Spread the Happy” on everything! I thought it would be yummy to combine the two – Pancakes + Nutella = LOVE! Of course, fresh fruit makes the perfect topping for pancakes this special! No syrup needed – really! You won’t even miss it! Make this for International Pancake Tuesday, a weekend breakfast – or even for dinner! Whatever you do, just make it! 😉

• Nutella® (pronounced “new-tell-uh”) is a tasty, unique spread made from the combination
  of roasted hazelnuts, skim milk and a hint of cocoa. 
• Nutella® has no artificial colors or
  preservatives.Nutella® hazelnut spread does not contain peanuts or peanut ingredients. There is no risk
  of cross contamination with peanuts in the facility in which Nutella® is manufactured. 
•  Nutella® hazelnut spread does not contain any ingredients derived from gluten-containing
  cereals: wheat, barley, rye, oats or triticale. There is also no risk of cross contamination
  with any gluten ingredients. 
•  Nutella® hazelnut spread is kosher.For Nutella® hazelnut spread sold in the U.S., the whey included in the product comes
  from milk, but animal rennet is not used to obtain the whey. 
•  Since cocoa is an ingredient in Nutella® hazelnut spread, there is a trace of caffeine in a
  two tablespoon serving.
