Hugs + Kisses Confetti Pancakes


One of my most favorite weekend breakfasts growing up was a batch of my mom's "Daisy's Griddle Cakes." I can't quite track down the source of the original recipe, but they are hands-down, the best. pancakes. ever. We've been making them a bunch in our own home and decided to put an extra sweet twist on them in anticipation of Valentine's Day. The kids cooked these from start to finish (with a little help from me reaching over the griddle to the furthest part) and the extra love at breakfast put a smile on everyone's face.

ps -- I can't wait for the natural light in our new house's kitchen!

- 2 tsp. double acting baking powder
- 1/2 tsp. salt

Pour or scoop mix into condiment bottle. Heat griddle and grease if necessary. Draw X + O shapes with bottle. Bake 3 to 5 minutes, flip and bake other side.
