These pancakes are thick, sweet, and fruit-filled. Valentines Day is just around the corner and these guys are perfect for a celebratory brunch, or for any time of year! Check 'em out💓

The ingredients in this recipe are pretty simple, but they all play an important role. For example, I used cornstarch as a thickener, which I think made this batch so much better than the last. Thick, fluffy pancakes are the best! Another example is maple syrup. Using syrup adds a lot more sweetness than using just vanilla would.

The combination of these pancakes and vanilla coconut milk ice cream is insanely good! It almost tastes like Strawberry Shortcake, which is something that you need to try if you haven't already. I topped this with So Delicious ice cream by the way.🍨
