Much like Shakespeare during the lockdown writing King Lear, the E-generation are busy serving some food ideas that are bound to trend. Not long ago the viral 3-ingredients frothy coffee became an internet sensation and here comes another one, straight out of TikTok-the pancake cereal. As suggested by the name, it’s about adorable looking mini-sized pancakes that can replace your breakfast cereal. Honestly! We won’t mind eating it for lunch and dinner as well.


The trend is about making itsy-bitsy, cereal-sized pancakes using any regular pancake mix of your choice. You can start with a store-bought mix or how about making your homemade pancake batter? Anything works with this recipe.

The next step is to make tiny pancakes on your heated frying pan. You can use a spoon to drop small batter dollops or using a piping bag to control the size as per your liking. The idea is to create coin-sized pancakes. These will take a minute or even less to get done so be careful to flip them over in time. Once done, set aside your pancake cereal, and refrain from eating them right away.

Now comes to the fun part where you can decide the topping-may be you’re a regular butter and maple syrup person, or try whipped cream with blueberries. How about drizzling Nutella on top? Even sprinkling some sugar-cinnamon dust goes well. People who don’t mind mushy pancakes can add milk too for a cereal feel. You get the point! The choice is endless here. That’s it, your pancake cereal is ready!
