Create fun Jack-O-Lantern pancakes for a Halloween breakfast treat that kids will love.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon white sugar
  • 1 1/4 cups milk
  • 1 egg
  • 3 tablespoons melted butter
  • Orange food coloring
  • Chocolate chips
  • Whipped cream for topping (optional)
  • Maple syrup for serving

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
  2. Make a well in the center and pour in the milk, egg, and melted butter. Mix until smooth.
  3. Stir in enough orange food coloring to achieve a vibrant pumpkin color.
  4. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium-high heat.
  5. For each pancake, pour approximately 1/4 cup of batter onto the griddle.
  6. As bubbles appear on the surface, use a spatula to carefully flip the pancake.
  7. Cook for another minute or two until golden brown.
  8. Repeat with the remaining batter.
  9. Once cooked, arrange chocolate chips on the pancakes to create jack-o’-lantern faces – two for eyes, one for a nose, and a few for a mouth.
  10. Serve warm with whipped cream and maple syrup if desired.

Notes

  • Adjust the amount of food coloring to reach your desired shade of orange.
  • Ensure your griddle is at the right temperature to prevent burning.
  • Get the kids involved in decorating the jack-o’-lantern faces!
