I Kept Seeing Trader Joe’s Pancake Bread So I Stopped Fighting The Urge To Try It And Here’s What It’s...
Hi, I'm Christopher and I have a serious sweet tooth. Recently, I saw that Trader Joe's was selling something called "Pancake Bread" and it really stuck with me.
Every time I'd go in Trader Joe's, I'd make eye contact with the pancake bread and spend 10 minutes hovering over it like a parent admiring their newborn baby in its crib.

I was hesitant to buy it because I knew that I have zero self control, so if I liked the pancake bread, I'd have to resist buying it every time I was in a Trader Joe's moving forward, and frankly I didn't trust myself to do that.

I kept asking cashiers if they'd tried it and having them describe its taste for me. I'm realizing now, as I typed out that sentence, just how weird it is.

Anyway, one day a cashier told me he believed it might be seasonal, which meant I couldn't get addicted because it'd be going away someday! So, I bought the pancake bread and of course I took pictures of it in portrait mode because it's so beautiful.
When you label something pancake bread, the bar is set so, so, SO high. Like, impossibly high to meet. I tried to lower expectations before eating this, just to be fair.

The time had finally come — pancake bread and I met and here were my thoughts:

This is addictive. You can cut yourself one slice but just know you'll be going back for more.
It's dense. Delicious and dense.
The best way I can describe this is a pancake-themed coffee cake. In fact, I had it with a cup of joe and it was a beautiful collaboration in my mouth.
On a scale of 1—10, I give this a STRONG 8 and I recommend trying it, particularly if you're a lover of baked goods.
