With Thanksgiving just around the corner, Allie decided this week that turkey pancakes were in order. Not just any turkey shape would do though, this had to look just like the turkey from her pop-up Thanksgiving book. Great. Overall I think he turned out pretty good, as far as Turkey pancakes are concerned. I used [...]

Boo! Halloween Pancakes!
Boo! It’s that time of year to make some Halloween pancakes! Here are a couple easy ones, I think I’ll attempt something a little more complex this weekend. The ghost is really easy to make, the trick is to flip it over as soon as possible so that it stays white. You can cook it [...]
Pancakes are better with honey- the Beehive pancake!
This one is super easy to make, you just have to make some circles and some “C” shapes for the door. Stack ‘em up and you’re done!
Fall’s hottest fashion: Pancakes!
Fall’s hottest fashions—Pancake earrings and bracelets. Allie was helping me make pancakes the other day and I told her to take off her dress-up bracelets so that they didn’t fall into the batter. She wasn’t super happy about that, so we quickly came up with a solution: Pancake bracelets! Of course, nothing goes better with [...]
3D Dinosaur Bones Pancake
During our recent trip to New York we visited the Museum of Natural History. We got to see some really cool dinosaur skeletons. Allie thought they were pretty cool, so I thought I’d see if I could recreate one in pancake form. Here’s what I started with (I made all the shapes first then put [...]

After many weeks of Allie’s relentless begging, I finally made her a unicorn. The reason it took so long is because I am horrible at drawing horses, so I had to think it through to get it right. Allie chose the hair color too, very punk rock.

We made a birdhouse!
Most fathers would have to go to Home Depot and buy some wood and nails to make a birdhouse for their kids. Not me. A little pancake batter and a hot griddle is all I need. Sure, birds can’t actually live in it and it wouldn’t last more than 5 minutes outside, but at least [...]
Summer’s hottest fashion – Pancake Sunglasses
I’m back! Sorry for the hiatus, we’ve been camping on the weekends lately so I haven’t had a lot of time to do Saturday pancakes in the kitchen. Anyway, we decided to make some awesome pancake glasses this morning, breakfast is always more fun when you can wear it. Note: add butter and syrup AFTER [...]
Summertime is here!
Summer is officially here…I know because anything over 70 degrees and I start to panic. To “celebrate” the summer season, I decided to make a watermelon pancake! Note: using real watermelon in pancake batter does NOT color it. It only makes a huge mess and wastes otherwise good pancake batter For this one I used [...]
