Dalgona coffee took the world by storm a few months back and now, pancake cereal is the newest trending thing to make at home.

Just like the famed dalgona coffee, pancake cereal is relatively easy to make as well. A store-bought pancake mix will work but if you prefer making your own batter, you will only need three ingredients - flour, eggs and milk. Easy peasy!

Next, pour the batter into a piping bag or squeeze bottle, or improvise by using a transparent plastic bag and cutting the edge off to transform it into a piping bag.

Heat up a non-stick pan and squeeze small dollops of the batter onto the pan. Once the mini pancakes start bubbling, flip and toss them around in the pan until they turn slightly brown.

Let them sit in the pan for a little while more if you prefer them crispier.

LIL BB PANCAKE CEREAL! ?? y’all know I love a fun trend. And food alwaaaays tastes better mini. I made these cuties with @birchbenders pancake mix and piped teeny tiny pancakes on a pan. Swipe allll the way right to see how it’s done. Topped with some butter and lotsa maple syrup. Add milk or eat as is! I did both and though I don’t like soggy cereal, I reallyyyy loved it soggy in milk. A fun activity worth trying ☺️ #pancakecereal

Add pizzazz to your bowl of pancake cereal by adding maple syrup and butter, or even fruits for some colour. Some people add milk too, really making it look like a bowl of pancake cereal!
