Chocolate Chip and Banana Pancakes

 

Holy sweet breakfast!  In case you haven't figured it out, Aaron and I are huge food fans.  Shocking, I know.  One of our favorite people to watch on TV is Tyler Florence.  He cooks that hearty-comfort food that we love so much.  My mother-in-law recently bought us one of his cook books that we had been eyeing for our anniversary.  The name of the book is Tyler Florence Family Meal and has some Ah-mazing recipes.  It is a highly recommended recipe book and this is our first recipe we tried!
