the Story Behind These Pancakes: on the First Morning of Our Recent Once-in-a-Lifetime Trip to Hawaii, Dd and I Enjoyed the Best Pancakes Ever! We Had a Great Vacation, Then Went Back on Our Last Day and Again Enjoyed Those Awesome Banana Macadamia Nut Pancakes from Tip Top Bakery & Cafe. This Recipe Is My Way Preserving Our Memories of a Wonderful Vacation Together in Kauai. |

the Recipe, Which I Created Expressly For the Rsc#12 Contest, Was Inspired by Those Banana Mac Pancakes. the Actual Kauai Pancakes Could Be Ordered With Any Combination of Bananas, Pineapple, and Macadamia Nuts. I Left the Mac Nuts Out of My Recipe in Order to Keep It Accessible to All, but Do Feel Free to Add Some Fairly Fine Chopped Macadamia Nuts to Your Pancakes For a Real Taste of the Islands. |

at Tip Top the Yummy Pancakes Are Served With Vanilla Syrup and Guava Preserves. Their Coffee Was Also Great While Mine Is Pretty Bad. in Order to Really Duplicate the Hawaiian Breakfast Experience, Something Would Have to Be Done About That! |
