Looking for a quick and easy bite-sized recipe that your kids will love? These Pancake Skewers should definitely be on your list. It’s a kids’ favorite! The pancakes are soft and pillowy, with both vanilla and chocolate flavors. To make it, you simply make one pancake batter and divide it into two to create a separate chocolate batter. Pipe mini pancakes into a pan, add them to a skewer, and drizzle with hazelnut cream. As easy as that. You can even try some delicious healthy variations. This will become your new favorite breakfast recipe!

Tips for Mini Pancake Skewers

– These pancake skewers are a healthy and yummy way to eat breakfast.

– Don’t feel like making your own batter? Use pancake mix for a quick shortcut.

– Try to make your pancakes all one size, as this will ensure even cooking. A squeeze bottle will also work for this if you don’t have a piping bag.

Don’t overmix the batter, rather have it a bit lumpy. Overmixing the pancake will result in a flat, dense pancake.

– Why not make pancake cereal? Pipe smaller amounts of batter into a hot pan (about ½-inch in diameter) and cook until crisp. Serve with whole milk or flavored milk.

– Use a spatula to flip the pancakes. If you use a fork, you will pierce through the pancakes and they won’t be light and puffy.

– Work in a non-stick pan for best results. Because the pancakes are small, you don’t want them to stick to the bottom of the pan!

Pancake Skewer Variations

Make a healthy, fruity pancake skewer by alternating vanilla pancakes with slices of strawberry, banana, and apple butter.

Make them healthier by using whole grain flours. Remember to use gluten-free flour if you’re cooking them for gluten-intolerant individuals.

For a savory variation, alternate the vanilla pancakes with slices of cheese and serve them with maple syrup and sausage for a satisfyingly sweet and savory breakfast.

Make it sweeter with a drizzle of maple syrup and a sprinkle of powdered sugar.

How to store Pancake Skewers

These pancake skewers are best served and enjoyed immediately, but they can be made up to 2 hours in advance. Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days, in an airtight container.
