Make breakfast fun by pouring your pancake batter into a squeeze bottle. Make pancakes out of your child's name or make designs, or animals.

Pancake Syrup Tip: To make an inexpensive syrup for pancakes, save small amounts of leftover jams and jellies in a jar. Or, fruit-flavored syrup can be made by adding 2 cups sugar to 1 cup of any kind of fruit juice and cooking untill it boils.

How to Make French Crepes

French Crepes1 egg
2 Tablespoons sugar
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup milk
1 cup flour
2 Tablespoons melted butter

Beat egg, salt and sugar together. Add milk and flour. Beat until smooth. Add butter. Heat a small frying pan with a little melted butter. When hot, turn in enough batter to just cover bottom. Fry, shaking frequently, until batter is golden on bottom. Turn and brown other side.

Crepes

2 cups milk
4 eggs
1/4 tsp salt
1 cup flour
1/4 tsp baking powder

Beat ingredients, start at one cup of flour but you can add up to ½ cup more if needed for the desired consistency. Then, add baking powder. Cook on griddle, turning when sides are golden. Good with cream cheese, ice cream, cinnamon sugar, jam etc.

How to Make French Toast

4-6 white bread slices
1 egg
1/4 cup milk
2-3 tsp. sugar (add more or less depending on how sweet you want)
a little oil for shallow frying

In a shallow bowl beat the egg with a fork, stir in the sugar, then the milk. Beat until frothy and well mixed. Heat a tablespoon of oil in a frying pan, turn the pan to spread. Once oil is hot, on medium heat. Dip the slices of bread in the egg mixture so that both sides are covered. Then fry till both sides are golden. Take out and drain on paper towel.
Serving suggestions: with maple syrup, powdered sugar, butter, brown sugar, cinnamon sugar, or even ice cream

Tip: If you use water, instead of milk, then the bread will soak up the egg mixture better. They will also cook in butter instead of oil. You can add cinnamon sugar instead of white sugar, or a little vanilla.
