Making Letter Pancakes
I love homemade pancakes, and I especially love making letter pancakes. Even though they end up cut up in bite-sized pieces anyway, the girls get so excited every time I make them!
To start, I follow an adapted version of this pancake recipe because I think it makes the best pancakes evah:
:: 1 cup all-purpose flour
:: 1 tablespoon baking powder
:: 1/4 teaspoon salt
:: 1 tablespoon sugar
:: 1 egg, beaten
:: 1 cup milk
:: 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
:: 1 teaspoon vanilla
Mix the dry ingredients in a bowl. Mix the wet ingredients in a measuring cup and then add to the dry ingredients and mix well. Add water (a teeny bit at a time) if you need to thin the batter out!
Here’s the fun part. Fill a large squeeze bottle of some sort with the pancake mix and then you can easily make almost any shape very easily.

And even better, using a squeeze bottle allows you to make perfectly round pancakes almost every time!
