Every year my family has a tradition for Christmas. After opening our christmas presents my dad makes red and green pancakes for breakfast.
Here is a great recipe for homemade pancakes. It was passed down to my mom from my Great-Grandma King, my mom passed it down to me, and now I am sharing it with you!
Homemade pancakes
1 c. flour
2 tblsp sugar
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 egg - beaten
1 c. milk
1 tsp vanilla
Mix the dry ingredients together first, then add in the rest of the ingredients. This recipe will make about 10-12 pancakes, but if you are cooking for a BIG family like mine, you're at least going to need to double it!
I hope you like this recipe. It is my favorite pancake. If you want to change the color all you have to do is add your favorite food coloring. We have pink pancakes for Valentine's day, tie dye pancakes for Easter, and green booger pancakes just for fun!
Another fun idea we tried today was pouring the pancake mix into cookie cutters to make fun shapes. They take a little longer, but my baby brother loved eating a Christmas tree!
Feel free to share your favorite pancake recipe too.
Remember, you're never too little for big ideas!
So cute! My girls will love this!
