Pancake Art

I'm usually an oatmeal or cream-of-wheat mom.  But today I stepped up my game and made some awesome pancakes.  These weren't ordinary pancakes.  No, sir.  These were works of art.  Here's the trick.  I  put the batter (half whole wheat, I can't help myself) in a squirter-unit that I bought at a restaurant supply store for $1.50.   Then just drew onto the pancake griddle. We went with initials, ages, dinosaurs, etc.,   My kids thought that I was amazing.  And that doesn't happen often- especially at breakfast.

For the outline-effect, squirt whatever you want dark first, let it sit, then fill in or around with more batter.
