Is it a hearty breakfast or a sweet treat? Trick question — the Piggy Pancakes at Cincinnati brunch champion Sleepy Bee are both. A little bit of salty and a lot of sweet, Sleepy Bee adds bacon right into the batter and then tops off the pancakes with whipped cream and candied pecans. You can get the pancakes made two different ways: as super fluffy buttermilk pancakes or as the gluten-free bee cake, which is made from bee-pollinated flowers. For some extra protein, add an egg, thick-cut bacon, sausage or goetta (including vegan goetta!) to your order. sleepybeecafe.com.
