We’re camping this weekend (as you can tell from the vintage upholstery in our 1977 motorhome) so of course we still made pancakes! I didn’t feel like making a full campfire first thing in the morning, so campfire pancakes are the next best thing. Allie thought it was pretty cool, she tried warming her hands over the fire for a bit too.
The “logs” are made using a lot of cocoa powder for coloring. They tasted pretty good too, although next time I’ll use chocolate syrup in the batter. The flames use beet juice for red (you can’t really taste it) and the yellow is supposed to be “all natural” from the restaurant store.
You know what else you need with a campfire? S’mores! These were super easy to make using some of the left over yellow batter for the graham cracker, non-colored batter for the marshmallow and chocolate batter for the chocolate.
