So, this months challenge was to create a recipe using tea! I am absolutely obsessed with Cuppa Chocolate teas! Although slightly more expensive, they have an amazing taste and are worth it in my opinion! So I knew I was going to use this tea in a recipe but wasn’t exactly sure how. Then, one morning I was drinking my tea while eating pancakes and thought……”Wow, this might give my pancakes an amazing flavor!” I couldn’t have been more right! The flavors of the tea gave a great depth of flavor to the pancakes! I am excited to try other flavors next! But in the mean time, I hope you enjoy this recipe and the many others below!
