Mason jars are quite possibly the South’s favorite containers. They are ideal vessels for drinking sweet tea (or bourbon), making adorable crafts, and even cooking breakfast, including one of our favorite morning pick—pancakes. These Mason jar pancake recipes are the most delicious way to start the day. With pancake mix in a jar, all you have to do is add water, eggs, and/or milk, and you’ve got breakfast. Other Mason jar recipes for pancakes literally cook in the jar, and some are so easy that they cook in the microwave. These pancakes in a jar will make cute holiday hostess gifts, stocking stuffers, and gifts for neighbors. Put all of the ingredients for these Mason jar breakfast recipes in the jar, tie with a bow, and voila—the least expensive (but still thoughtful) gift you can give.
