One of the famous American breakfasts is oatmeal or muesli (raw oat with grains, fruits or nuts). However, if you’re not a big fan of oats, go for pancakes instead! Homemade thick pancakes with syrup and blueberries or strawberries are just so hard to resist. You may also top your pancakes with a few rashers of bacon.
