1

Prepare the Glitter Syrup

In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup of granulated sugar and 1 cup of water. Heat the mixture over medium heat until the sugar has dissolved completely. Let the syrup simmer for a few minutes. Then, remove the saucepan from heat and add edible glitter of your choice. Stir well to combine and let the syrup cool.

Mix the Pancake Batter

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons of sugar, 2 teaspoons of baking powder, and a pinch of salt. In a separate bowl, beat 2 eggs and then add 1 ¾ cups of milk and 2 tablespoons of melted butter. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture and whisk until just combined.

Divide and Color the Batter

Divide the pancake batter into separate bowls, depending on how many colors you want for your pancake art. Add a few drops of food coloring to each bowl and mix well. Be adventurous with your colors!

Heat the Griddle and Grease

Preheat a griddle or a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with butter or cooking spray.

5

Create Pancake Art

Using squeeze bottles or plastic bags with the corner snipped off, carefully draw your pancake designs onto the hot griddle. Remember, the key is to start with the outlines first and gradually fill them in. Be patient and have fun with your creations!

Flip and Cook

Once the pancake edges start to set and small bubbles form on the surface, it's time to flip! Using a spatula, carefully flip your pancake art and cook for another minute or so until golden brown.
