To kick off the start of the spooky month, we decided to make Jack-O-Lantern pancakes for breakfast! They were so yummy and a huge hit with the kids!
We mixed up some regular pancake batter and added about a half a can of pumpkin. This gives your pancakes the yummy pumpkin flavor, the orange color and really ups the nutritional value - not that I'm saying these are healthy by the time you get done decorating them!
When you've made your pancakes, set one on each plate along with your decorating items. We used chocolate malt balls for the eyes, a candy pumpkin for the nose and candy corn for the teeth, but you can really get creative and use anything you have. I helped the kids squirt the whip cream in the spots for the eyes, nose and mouth and left the rest up to them. They always eat so much better when they help make it, and even better if it's something fun!
Happy October!
