Well, the AT-AT was such a hit that I decided to do another favorite, the Millennium Falcon This one was a bit easier than the AT-AT, but the landing gear gave me a hard time. For the first attempt I think this came out pretty good though. I should probably add a small Chewie though, [...]

Star Wars Pancakes!
by admin on 20. Sep, 2011 in Articles, Pancake Photos, Pancake Videos
I finally made one of my favorite things from when I was little, the “AT-AT” from Star Wars. This was not easy, but well worth it It took a little more planning than usual, since four-legged pancake creations seem to be the most difficult to engineer. Here’s the super-scientific blueprints I started from: I ended [...]
Practicing for Valentine’s day
by admin on 07. Feb, 2011 in Articles, Pancake Videos
I decided to test out some ideas for Valentine’s Day pancakes, but all I could come up with is an arrow through a heart. The heart is colored with strawberry jam, and the arrow uses cocoa powder.
Mmmmmm…..bacon & eggs
by Jim on 18. May, 2010 in Pancake Photos, Pancake Videos
This pancake is for all the mornings when I really want bacon and eggs but we never seem to have them in the fridge. Luckily, we have plenty of pancake ingredients in this house I’m glad I recorded this one, Allie had a couple good comments. Apparently calling bacon fat “fat” isn’t nice. And oh [...]
I assume this is what pancakes are like in Japan
by Jim on 16. May, 2010 in Articles, Pancake Photos, Pancake Videos
Gotta thank Steve from my facebook page for this idea! I think it came out pretty good and Allie ate the whole thing. She was either starving or they were good, we’ll never know. I wanted to make sushi pancakes like you would make real sushi, so everything needed to be thin enough to wrap [...]
Difficulty level: 11 – Ferris Wheel Pancake!
by Jim on 15. May, 2010 in Pancake Photos, Pancake Videos
I think this was the hardest pancake so far. Amber suggested it from the Jim’s Pancakes Facebook page and I thought it would be a nice challenge. Well, an hour later and with most of my fingers burned I’m calling it a success. I’ll post the video of it here after I load it to [...]
Easy to make Giraffe Pancake
by Jim on 01. May, 2010 in Pancake Photos, Pancake Videos
This guy was pretty easy to make. I just drew the outline and his spots first, then let them cook for a couple minutes. Add a little yellow batter and boom: Giraffe pancake. As usual, Allie was supervising my work and giving encouragement. Later on I asked her what other kinds of pancakes she wanted [...]
First attempt at pancake civil engineering
by Jim on 24. Apr, 2010 in Pancake Photos, Pancake Videos
Thought I’d give myself a little challenge today, so I decided to test out the load-bearing qualities of pancake batter. The project was more successful than I had anticipated, minus the minor burns from trying to assemble the structure on a hot griddle. If you over-cook the pieces, they become pretty stable, almost like balsa [...]
“Tank”, the pancake turtle
by Jim on 19. Apr, 2010 in Pancake Photos, Pancake Videos
By popular demand- I made a turtle. For some reason I thought I was going to be able to mold the shell into a lifelike three-dimensional shape, and then reality set it. Pancakes like to stay flat I guess. Undeterred, I decided to use brute force and just squished the pancake into the shape I [...]
