Breakfast, however, can be a tricky meal to provide for men as they often prefer something heartier and meatier than french toast and strawberries.  Luckily, I found this little Father’s Day treat from Food Network that I’m certain will please the Dad in your life, not to mention any kids who may be hoping to share a few bites of Dad’s breakfast in bed.

In my opinion, Breakfast Burgers are the perfect Father’s Day surprise and can be made easily using simple ingredients you probably already have in your refrigerator.  Get the recipe and get started!  This Father’s Day, show your appreciation for the guy who helps make life possible by letting him enjoy a delicious Breakfast Burger in bed.

Celebrate Father’s Day – Give Dad Breakfast in Bed

Thursday, June 18th, 2015

exps115185_SD1999448B02_25_4b_WEBI once read that Mother’s Day is the biggest day of the year for the restaurant business.  Everyone loves to celebrate Mom, and rightfully so.  But that statistic always leaves me wondering what about Dad?  Doesn’t Dad deserve a delicious meal?  Maybe restaurants aren’t packed on Father’s Day because ultimately Dad winds up paying the check, which isn’t really much of a gift.  I don’t know, but whatever the case Father’s Day deserves a little a attention, don’t you think?

The good news about Dads is typically they aren’t all that picky about food.  Most Dads just love to eat, especially if they don’t have to cook… or pay.  Most Dads also love to relax, which is why I thought this recipe was a great idea.  Although often associated with Mother’s Day, I think this year would be a great time to give Dad a little taste of breakfast in bed.

This Taste of Home recipe for Cinnamon Pancakes is not only delicious, it’s also easy, even for kids who want to help out in the kitchen.  Taking only 15 minutes to prep and 5 minutes to cook, Dad won’t have a long wait and little helpers won’t burn out too quickly.  Using a regular pancake mix of your choice, the recipe calls for a few little tweaks to make this breakfast extra special.  Using cookie cutters to spell out something sweet for Dad or making other shapes such as hearts or stars is another great way to tell Dad just how much you love and appreciate all he does.  Even if you want to go for a simpler, more traditional round shape, these cinnamon pancakes with a brown sugar, butter and vanilla syrup are sure to be a big hit.

This Father’s Day, let Dad sleep in… and then wake him with a big surprise!  Fry up some bacon, brew some coffee and give Dad a delicious breakfast that lets him know how much you love him.  This may not be the healthiest recipe we’ve ever recommended, but I personally think it’s one of the happiest!  Give Dad a Father’s Day to remember!
