Love at First Bite!

Everyone knows that the way to a person’s heart is through the stomach.  So, if you’re looking for a way to spoil your sweetheart this Valentine’s Day, you have to start in the morning with this adorable breakfast idea.  This will set the romantic tone for the day leading to your evening plans. 

To make these heart shaped pancakes, I simply used a set of silicone heart egg/pancake rings from Amazon. You don’t have to limit yourself to heart shaped pancakes. You can also use alphabet cookie cutters to carve out a sweet message. The easiest way to make them is to cook your pancakes first and then cut the letters out of the fully cooked pancakes instead of pouring batter directly into the cookie cutter. The edges will be smoother this way.

You can make your pancake batter from scratch if you have a recipe you love, but boxed pancake mix works just as well. I love this Trader Joe’s Buttermilk Protein Pancake mix. For an extra special touch, garnished pancakes with Nutella and strawberries.

Are you going to give this idea a try? It will be love at first bite!

    Oh how cute! We don’t do valentine’s day here in Australia but it would be fun to try this for something different! 🙂

    Hope that you are having a nice weekend! It’s a quiet one here as we have a lot more rain – but can’t complain, it’s nice to have cooler weather and we are not at risk for flooding 🙂

    What a CUTE idea! I can’t believe I’ve never thought about doing this before! Such a simple and cute way to say I Love You. I also love that heart ring you have too. You always include the best details in your photos! Happy Valentine’s Day! XO
