Delicious Flower Pancakes!
The Baking Ingredients
Prep: Put your pancake batter into a squirt bottle (refillable ketchup bottles work waaay better, but I couldn't find mine). Make the batter a bit thinner than the instructions call for. It needs to flow through the nozzle easily. If it's too thick, your pancake batter will clog up in the tip.
Step one - make the outline of flower and cook to a dark dark brown.
(though this particular pancake wasn't the one used in the final product - this one didn't brown up around the edges like it should have...yes I made like 6 flower pancakes before getting the perfect coloring and shape for the final submission.)
Step two - fill in the flower and cook the fill-in to a light golden brown - this gives your pancake a nice detailed effect (again - this is not the particular pancake I used by the time I was done - just a practice pancake to show the steps in creating the final product.)
Step 3 - Finally a photo worthy pancake! The pancake is all done cooking with darken edges around the flower to give it definition!
Final Step - Pancake is decorated with strawberries, powered sugar, and maple syrup.
Bon Appetit! |

@MourningLily,
That's so cool. I had done a pancake flower myself a few days ago, but nowhere near as pretty as yours!
==============================
My entry below.
Pancake Flower:
Chocolate chip strawberry vanilla pancakes. c:
I used a recipe I found online for strawberry vanilla pancakes, then decided to add chocolate chips as well~ Be careful if you try the recipe though, because the amount of vanilla is mislabeled: it says 2 tablespoons, but it really should be more like 1 tablespoon. The oil is not needed as well. I did only half the amount of salt too.

Gathered my ingredients. Not as many as I thought...
Batter is made and waiting to get fried!
Most of them are now fried and are cooling so I don't burn my poor fingers.
My best attempt at stacking them into a sort of perennial shape.
Fine donut puffs, you win. I'll turn you into bundles of Baby's Breath!

I'm not exactly much of a baker, but I baked my very first cupcakes ever for this. XD
Lazily using my old nametag. Conserving paper!
Hope I didn't fill them too much!
Experimenting with strawberry cut shapes to make the petals more convincing.
The base of the flower coming together. These are frozen, de-pitted cherries, so they do end up oozing some cherry juice onto the plate and cupcakes by the time I finish.
The centerpiece of the flower. :) These last couple don't have my nametag because I couldn't fit it in well.
Finished flower!
A bonus picture of what happened when I dropped a strawberry wedge, with curious Oli underfoot.
