Father’s Day Pancakes!


Here’s a few ideas for making dad some special father’s day pancakes. First up, we have the golf pancakes. The trick to this one is to cook the golf club until it gets crispy on the outside, so that it can stand up.

Next, you want to create the putting green. Use a lot of batter so that the pancake is thick enough for you to insert the golf club into while it’s still on the griddle. This pancake is a no-flip pancake, so you should cook it on low heat for a long time to make sure it’s cooked all the way through. You could also finish it in the oven at 275 degrees for a few minutes.

Add a little syrup and you’re all set!

Next up – what father’s day wouldn’t be complete without an ugly tie?

These are pretty easy, you can make a bunch of them with left over colored batter. The more colors you use, the uglier they get :)

Finally, we have one of the best dad’s ever: Homer Simpson. You just have to make sure to drool a little and say “mmmmmmmm….pancakes…..” in a Homer voice as you eat it.

    Woah! Nice job. I like the tie the most but Homer Simpson seems like the hardest to make!

    I like the ties the most! I didn’t actually get the golf one at first… but very clever all the same :)

    Happy Father’s day jim! I discovered your pancakes just today and was wondering if you could maybe try having the punisher skull on the pancake!

    Wow! That Homer replica is better than most could do with a pencil and paper!

    I must constantly snap out of it and realize how amazing your art is particularly with food (and not just any food, but batter) as your medium!

    These are awesome. I thought I was so clever with my Williams-Sonoma pancake forms. Ha! You’ve made breakfast (or brinner) into art.

    Beyond amazing and fun!

    I saw your video on youtube and now I want to do those things to my father. You’re amazing, creative and one of the coolest dads . Have a happy day, Jim.

    Very cool! I must admit at first glance I thought the golf pancakes were green eggs and ham!

    Love it! Homer Simpson = epic! Love love love!

    I love the Homer pancake! Well done Jim.

    You are extremely creative, and I am a die hard Simpsons fan, i am glad you made Homer. I’m surprise he didn’t eat himself.

    You’re so creative Jim! And may I say, your daughter is one sweet little doll!

    Hey! Really really like your pancake art works! There are so fabulous! And you’re such a nice papa =D
    Best wishes to you and your family!

    They’re all adorable, but not half as adorable as the little girl! I’ve always wanted a blonde blue-eyed child, but given that I’m Asian, that’s impossible. So Jim, may I adopt your little girl? : ) Kidding!

    Love it. Saw you on Rachael Ray and am in awe of your creativity. Ever thought of posting step by step instructions for those of us not as artistically inclined?
