What is National Flapjack Day?
National Flapjack Day is celebrated on March 7th with piping hot flavor and goodness. The day honors the robust, wholesome cakes we've been baking for generations. Recipes passed down from grandmother to son and mother to daughter are still giving smiles to families around the country.
Flapjacks were a staple of pioneers trying to find new lives on the frontier. Flajacks provided the fuel they needed to get through the often strenuous trails, brimming with nutrients and energy.
We're reminded of mornings in grandma's kitchen when the coffee was fresh. Fresh blueberries and real maple syrup were topped on them by fresh blueberries and real maple syrup. Maybe today you'll add pecans or walnuts, thick-sliced bananas, and your favorite nut butter. Fresh whipped cream makes flapjacks seem extra special, as well.
No matter where you go, the taste and smell of hot off-the-griddle flapjacks never goes wrong. They'll get you up for a day of hiking, playing, exploring, and celebrating, as well.
