A cute and simple Halloween breakfast pancakes recipe for a special Halloween breakfast kids will love

It’s easier than you’d think to make a fun and festive Halloween themed breakfast — you can whip up a quick batch of these Jack ‘O’ Lantern Pancakes in just minutes!

We keep things easy by using black frosting to draw the face, or you can skip the frosting and simply do orange “pumpkin” pancakes.

Pro Tip: Make your pancakes taste like pumpkin too! Replace 1 Tablespoon of the melted butter or oil with 1 Tablespoon of pumpkin puree. That will also help dye the pancake batter naturally if you want to reduce the amount of food colouring in the pancakes.

Add in orange food color slowly until you reach your desired colour – this is why I like gel food colouring because you can use very little and it makes a big impact.

Grease or oil your skillet to allow for easy flipping.

Portion out 1/4 cup of batter onto your skillet per pancake. Space them out so that they can spread out without touching.

Cook until small bubbles have formed completely on the upper side, and then flip. Cook through and remove to cool slightly, if decorating.

Using your black gel frosting pen, draw the outline of your pumpkin face features, and then fill it in.

Add a small piece of green fruit leather for the pumpkin stem, and serve.
