Making Easter Themed Pancakes

It’s always fun to do something special for a holiday. Either it is an activity or in this case food. In 2016, I decided to make Easter-themed pancakes. I based it on the resurrection egg collection. The eggs had something in them to represent something from the Easter story in the Bible. 

For 2021 Easter, I decided to re-do that. When I first made them, they didn’t turn out too great. But I can’t say they turned out amazing this year either. Both times were fun, but it’s definitely hard to shape something with pancake batter.

First time I used a spoon, but this year I used a piping bag with a slanted tip. It worked much better, but I think it would be better with a different tip.

If you want to do something like this, here are some tips:

• Use a piping bag with a small tip. It’s easier to move and make different shapes

• Use a thicker batter, so you have more control of how much batter comes out

• If you prefer chocolate chip pancakes, you could use chocolate syrup to take its place

• Or if you don’t have chocolate syrup, you could melt a few chocolate chips and spread it around the pancakes

Here’s the recipe I used:

Ingredients

1 egg

1 cup all-purpose flour

3/4 cup milk

2 Tbsp oil ( I use melted coconut oil or butter)

3 tsp baking powder

1/4 tsp salt

Instructions:

Beat the eggs till fluffy, then add all of the other ingredients
