Fun with colours

I recently came across a booked called OMG Pancakes. This guy takes pancake batter and turns it into art. I thought I’d try expanding on the pancake letters using some of this guy’s ideas and doing some of my own. I showed the book to my 3 year old and asked him what kind of pancakes he wanted. Of course he said “Astro Boy pancakes” which isn’t in the book. Since we only have 2 squeeze bottles I couldn’t go all out but I did do the red boots and face (which he was thrilled with).

I made more for him after he wolfed down his Astro Boy.

My 19 month old enjoyed eating his special pancakes too.

My husband was surprised when I made a special plate for him too. He thought special pancakes were only for kids!

Then I thought it would make a really creative proposal, so I did that too. LOL

Colourful pancakes can be such a wonderful way to play with your food and will brighten even the dullest winter day. You don’t even need to make shapes, just let your creativity flow!

Tip: These work better with the Cottage Cheese Pancakes than regular pancake batter, simply because of the need of the squeeze bottles. But, you can cut the opening of the squeeze bottles a little larger and it would probably come out fine.
