This breakfast cake is a favorite of Andrew’s & it’s really simple to make so I don’t mind baking it in the mornings. Let me post a warning though, it is made with Buttermilk so do not accidentally drink the buttermilk! I bought buttermilk a few days ago specifically to bake this and while it sat in my fridge for a day or two before I was ready to use it, I accidentally poured a small glass of it and took a big drink! Needless to say, it was not milk like I had been anticipating in my mouth. If you like buttermilk then I’m sorry to offend you, but I spit it out all over my kitchen floor. I just couldn’t make it to the sink, it had to get out of my mouth right then before I had a mental breakdown! Okay, so it wasn’t exactly that bad, but i really did spit it out everywhere!
