    Mix Wet and Dry Ingredients

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.

Add Colors

  1. 4

    Color the Batter

    Divide the batter into separate bowls (about 1 cup each). Add a drop of different food coloring to each bowl and mix until the desired color is achieved.

Cooking Pancakes

  1. 5

    Heat the Pan

    Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or non-stick spray.

  2. 6

    Cook the Pancakes

    Pour a small amount of each colored batter onto the skillet to create swirls or layers. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook until golden brown on the other side.

Serving

  1. 7

    Serve with Toppings

    Stack the pancakes on a plate and serve warm with maple syrup, whipped cream, and a sprinkle of colorful sprinkles on top.
