Rainbow Pancakes

CIMG2974

  • 1 1/2 c all purpose flour
  • 3 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tbsp white sugar
  • 1 1/2 c milk
  • 2 eggs
  • 3 tbsp butter, melted

Combine all dry ingredients, then mix in milk, eggs and melted butter until smooth. Split the batter up between several smaller bowls and add different food coloring to each bowl of batter; mix. Just keep adding food coloring and mixing until you get the desired shade, then cook on the griddle. I like to make these pancakes REALLY small so that my kids can have a rainbow stack of pancakes, and I know they’ll eat it all. 🙂

  • 1 c Flour
  • 1/4 c Powdered Sugar
  • 1/4 tsp Salt
  • 1 1/4-1 1/2 c Milk
  • 2 Eggs
  • 3 tbsp Butter or Margarine melted
  • 1 tsp Vanilla

Mix all ingredients and beat until smooth. Heat a lightly greased skillet and add a small ladle-full of batter, spreading around the pan. Cook until lightly browned and brown on the other side. Repeat until the batter is gone.

Serve with your favorite canned pie filling, lemon juice sprinkled with a little sugar,  cranberry sauce or just whatever (we find that these crepes are just TOO sweet with maple syrup).

Pumpkin Pancakes

  • 2 c Flour
  • 3/8 c Brown Sugar
  • 2 tsp Baking Powder
  • 1 tsp Baking Soda
  • 1 tsp Pumpkin Pie Spice
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 1 1/2 c Milk
  • 1 c Pumpkin (mashed)
  • 1 Egg
  • 2 tbsp Vegetable Oil
  • 2 tbsp Vinegar

Combine flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, pumpkin pie spice, and salt. In a separate bowl mix together the milk, pumpkin, egg, oil and vinegar. Stir flour mixture into the pumpkin mixture just enough to combine.

Heat a lightly oiled griddle, or frying pan over medium heat. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake and brown on both sides.

We love these pancakes. They aren’t too fluffy and they have just a light pumpkin taste, not too overwhelming.

Put milk and wheat in blender and blend on the hightest speed for 4-5 minutes, or until the batter is smooth. Add eggs, oil, baking powder, honey and salt, and blend on low. Bake on hot griddle.

  • 1 c All-Purpose Flour
  • 1 tbsp Sugar
  • 2 tsp Baking Powder
  • 1/4 tsp Salt
  • 1 Egg
  • 1 c Milk
  • 2 tbsp Vegetable oil
  • 2 ripe Bananas (mashed)
  • 1/2 c Finely chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)

Combine flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. In a separate bowl, mix together egg, milk, vegetable oil, and bananas. Stir the flour mixture into the banana mixture (batter will be slightly lumpy).

Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium heat. Pour or scoop about 1/4 c mixture per pancake onto the griddle and cook until pancakes are golden brown on both sides. Serve hot.

These pancakes were so good that we found you don’t need syrup or anything on them. Yum.
