Servings: 16
Ingredients
- 2 Cups all purpose flour all-purpose
- 2 Cups milk whole
- 2 Tbsp. apple cider vinegar
- 3 Tbsp. brown sugar
- 2 eggs lightly beaten
- 1 Tsp. vanilla extract
- 1 Tsp. pumpkin pie spice
- 2 Tsp. baking powder
- 1 Tsp. baking soda
- 1/2 Tsp. salt
- Orange food coloring
- Green food coloring
- Purple food coloring
Instructions
- In a bowl or measuring cup add the milk and the two tablespoons of apple cider vinegar, Let this mixture sit for 5 minutes.
- In a mixing bowl place all of the dry ingredients and mix together.
- After your milk mixture has rested for 5 minutes add it to the mixing bowl with the dry ingredients.
- Add in the vanilla extract and the eggs, mix everything together until just combined but do not over mix.
- Split your batter in fourths, pour each of the fourths of batter into separate bowls. Set one of the bowls aside. In one of the bowls of batter add green food coloring and mix until combined. In the third bowl of batter add orange food coloring and mix until combined. In the fourth bowl of batter add purple food coloring and mix until combined.
- Heat a skillet to medium low heat and spritz with oil or a little butter. Pour in about a quarter cup of pancake batter. Let the pancake cook for a couple of minutes until the bubbles that begin to appear start to pop.
- When the bubbles start to pop, use a spatula to flip the pancake over and cook for another 30 seconds to a minute until cooked through. Then remove from the pan and set aside. Continue this process with remaining batter for all the colours until all the pancakes have been made.
- Serve immediately.
Notes
The milk and vinegar are mixed together to create a faux buttermilk.
For an extra fun topping, create your own edible blood. There are a few ways that you can do this. One way is to use a strawberry pancake syrup and mix it with a little extra red food coloring, or mix a couple Tablespoons of Strawberry or raspberry jam with some apple juice or water and red food coloring! You can also use regular maple syrup and add food coloring. It'll be a bit darker of a red but also works well!
Pancakes can be frozen and reheated in the toaster!
If you keep your oven on a very low temp (150-200 degrees F), you can keep a cookie sheet in the warm oven and place finished pancakes on the tray as you go to keep them warm while you finish the batch.
