"Flippers" Are Your New Favorite Breakfast Food
When I was a little girl, my mom would make "flippers" for my friends and I at sleepovers. Flippers were the biggest hit of my mom's many breakfast creations. To this day, people still ask her for the recipe. Whenever I come home from college, my mom and I remember old times and make these together for breakfast.
So, what exactly are "flippers"? These crispy, pillow-like disks are handmade with canned biscuit dough, fried and topped with whatever your heart desires. Remember elephant ears from the fair? Flippers are similar, but 10 times better. Growing up, I topped flippers with powdered sugar, cinnamon sugar, or my personal favorite, a drizzle of maple syrup. Absolute perfection.
Crunchy on the outside and soft in the middle, flippers give waffles and pancakes a run for their money.
Hungry yet? Try them for yourself using my mom's special recipe. I have to warn you, flippers are extremely addictive and may cause cravings to consume more. Prepare to take your breakfast experience to a whole new level!
