PANCAKE ART CHALLENGE!! ft. Jordan Matter & ZHC

Ingredients

• 2 cups All-Purpose Flour (sifted)
• 2 teaspoons Baking Powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 2 tablespoons Granulated Sugar
• 1.5 cups Milk (whole milk for richness)
• 2 large Eggs
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted Butter (melted)
• 1 teaspoon each Gel Food Coloring (red, yellow, blue, green, white (divide batter into separate bowls))
• 0.5 cup Fresh Berries (optional) (for garnish)

Instructions

1. Combine Dry Ingredients

   In a mixing bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar until evenly distributed.

   Time: PT5M

2. Add Wet Ingredients

   Create a well in the dry mixture, pour in the milk, melted butter, and eggs, then whisk until just combined. Do not over‑mix.

   Time: PT3M

3. Divide and Color Batter

   Pour the batter into five small bowls. Add a few drops of gel food coloring to each bowl (red, yellow, blue, green, white) and stir gently until the color is uniform.

   Time: PT5M

4. Rest the Batter

   Let the colored batters sit for about 5 minutes. This allows the flour to hydrate and the colors to settle.

   Time: PT5M

5. Preheat the Griddle

   Heat the non‑stick skillet or griddle over medium heat until a few drops of water sizzle and evaporate.

   Time: PT2M

   Temperature: 350°F

6. Lightly Oil the Surface

   Brush the hot surface with a thin layer of melted butter or oil using a paper towel.

   Time: PT1M

7. Draw the Outline

   Using a squeeze bottle filled with white batter, draw the outline of your desired character (e.g., a minion, superhero) directly onto the griddle.

   Time: PT5M

8. Fill in the Colors

   Switch to the colored bottles and fill the interior sections of the outline. Let the batter sit for about 30 seconds so the edges firm up.

   Time: PT2M

9. Cook the First Side

   Allow the pancake to cook until the surface is set and the edges turn opaque, about 1–2 minutes.

   Time: PT2M

   Temperature: 350°F

10. Flip Carefully

    Using two offset spatulas, slide under the pancake and flip it onto the other side. Cook for an additional 1 minute to set the back.

    Time: PT1M

    Temperature: 350°F

11. Transfer and Repeat

    Slide the finished pancake onto a warm plate. Repeat steps 7‑10 for each design, cleaning the griddle lightly between colors if needed.

    Time: PT5M

12. Serve

    Serve the pancake art warm, optionally topped with fresh berries, a drizzle of maple syrup, or a dusting of powdered sugar.

    Time: PT1M
