Tres Leches Breakfast for Dinner

We love Tres Leches Cake at our house, so when I spotted Tres Leches Pancakes, I knew we absolutely had to try them. It took a couple of tries on the menu to get to it, but we didn't give up.

The Tres Leches Pancakes are everything we loved about the cake in a tasty breakfast--which we ate for dinner. Instead of the pancake recipe, I decided to just make pancakes from my regular pancake mix. We all love the Krusteaz pancakes, and I was running a little short on time by the time I got the three milks combined and starting to thicken a little.

We topped our pancakes with the three-milk syrup and then plenty of fresh strawberries. Strawberries are a perfect way to cut through the sweet creaminess of regular the regular cake, and they worked so deliciously on the pancakes too. When you serve your pancakes, I recommend putting a little of the milk syrup down first so that the pancakes can start soaking up the milk mixture right away. Then use a heavy hand over the top, add sliced strawberries, and you're all set for an amazing breakfast bite that's perfect for any time of day.

I love having breakfast for dinner! In my household, it is always a treat to have breakfast for dinner. It is a fun, low-key dinner. I am not a big morning fan so I do not always wake up in time to have breakfast. Having it at night just seems special.
I really like this recipe and want to try it out with my staff! I am a hall director and my staff of RAs loves breakfast. I was thinking of doing a breakfast next weekend for them and I want to try this out!
