Heart-shaped pancakes
Nothing says 'I love you' more than a heart-shaped pancake! From Mother's Day to Father's Day to Valentine's Day, there isn't an occasion not worthy of a heart-shaped pancake.
All you need is the typical pancake ingredients (flour, eggs, milk, sugar, butter, baking powder, and salt)) and a heart-shaped pancake mould or a heart-shaped egg ring.
You can also add red or pink food colouring if you want to make them theme-appropriate.
However, traditional pancakes with strawberries and melted chocolate are just as good!
