Take Breakfast Over the Rainbow

Breakfast is usually fun, tasty, and looks good, but sometimes that’s not enough. So my cousins and I decided to get creative and do something different with our breakfast. We made pancakes, but not the usual way.

Instead of the boring yellowish color that pancakes usually are, we mixed it up with the perfect ingredient: all-natural food dye. We took a normal pancake recipe (see below) and made it into rainbow pancakes!

Once the batter is made, we poured it into six separate bowls, added food coloring, mixed, and we had every color of the rainbow!

To make it even more special, we added some fruit. We put strawberries in the red pancakes, bananas in the yellow, and blueberries in the blue and purple to keep up the rainbow theme.

Here are the finished results!
