The Birthday Stack
Birthday breakfast is always so fun to make for the kids or anyone celebrating - however, I don’t love giving my toddlers a pile of whipped cream or frosting at 6 am on a day that I know they’re also going to be eating cupcakes and all sorts of treats!
So this is my birthday stack - good for toddlers or anyone!
Directions:
Make your pancake mix - I like to use an organic whole wheat mix and add a tsp of almond extract which gives it an extra dessert like taste without being overly sweet.
Next, separate your batter between three bowls while your skillet is warming up.
Add solid colored sprinkles to each bowl. I just stuck to blue for one bowl and red (pink for another), stir until you have a color that you like. Leave the third bowl of batter plain for now.
Finally start making your pancakes!
When you get to the bowl with plain batter; pour as you normally would and then sprinkle some colorful sprinkles right onto the pancake - do this on both sides.
When your pancakes are done build your stack and top with fruit, a birthday candle or any other accessories! I have also made these without the birthday goodies and called them “fairy pancakes” or “unicorn pancakes” for St Patrick’s Day I may attempt some green pancakes that I then top with a few lucky charms!
ENJOY! XOXO
