3 easy pancake artworks to try
MANILA, Philippines — Everyone loves eating hotcakes for breakfast (and even for lunch and dinner).
With a little imagination and a few additional ingredients you can find at home, you can quickly transform your typical breakfast staple into art, from animal shapes to birthday cakes.
Since October 4 is World Children’s Day, here are three easy hotcake recipes to try for kids and kids at heart.
I Love You Hotcakes

These hotcakes are the most delicious way to send a message to your loved ones — best of all, they can eat them up after as well.
1. Whip up the Maya Hotcake Mix and pour the batter in a squeeze bottle.
2. On a non-stick pan, draw the reverse shape of the letters of your message with the squeeze bottle. (Make sure it is reverse so that it reads right side up when you flip the hotcake.)
3. Put the pan on an open stove and wait for the hotcake batter to start bubbling. When bubbling stops, flip the pancake with a flat spatula.
4. Arrange the letters accordingly. Garnish with additional toppings for decorations and extra flavor.

There are so many animals that you can make out of hotcakes, but these bears are always a fan favorite.
1. Cook different-sized hotcakes to make the head, ears, and/or body.
2. Put the hotcakes together on the plate.
3. Use chocolate syrup / spread and additional fruits to draw a face of the bear, and other details.

Celebrate your own way by reinventing the typical cake, and adding your own toppings.
1. Whip up the Maya Hotcake Mix and add candy sprinkles to the batter. Cook five hotcakes and stack them together.

3. Put a topping of whipped cream on top of the stack, and pour candy sprinkles over the stack of hotcakes.
4. Finish off with a dusting of confectioner’s sugar.
