I’m not even good at Tetris pancakes!

This is a pretty accurate depiction of how I play Tetris on my computer too. I’m usually okay until about level 3, then my brain starts to overheat. Luckily when you make tetris pancakes, if you get frustrated you can just eat up the block and make new ones Allie like the colors, but was [...]

A Salute to our Vets on Memorial Day – American Flag Pancakes!

Happy Memorial day everyone! Here’s a patriotic pancake for ya. I really tried to get all 50 stars in there, but pancake batter is a bit unforgiving when you’re trying to do detail work.

Happy Birthday Pac-Man!

Happy (belated) birthday Pac-Man! Can’t believe you’re 30…I’m starting to feel old. I had to spend about 15 minutes explaining to Allie who Pac-Man is, and then she still doesn’t understand why he eats ghosts. If I had a bigger griddle I think I could make the whole game layout

The Biplane Pancake

This one was pretty tricky, but not as hard as the ferris wheel. I made all the parts by cooking them really slowly to get as much of the moisture out of them as I could. When you cook a pancake for about 15 minutes, it gets crispy on the outside and stays pretty tasty [...]

I assume this is what pancakes are like in Japan

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!

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 [...]

Pancakes are officially manly.

Who knew that pancakes were so manly enough to be in Esquire? Thanks to Eric Gillin @esquire magazine and his “Eat like a Man” blog for featuring our pancakes, that is awesome. Hopefully my wife will think that I’m a little cooler now that I hang around with Esquire. An excerpt from the article: If [...]
