Those days of making Mickey Mouse pancakes are gone. This dad has taken breakfast to a whole new level, transforming pancake batter into detailed pieces of art.
He starts by filling three containers with pancake batter. He adds chocolate powder to two of the containers to make them a darker color. This technique will help with the details of the gorilla pancakes.
Once the batter is ready it’s time to get cooking. Each squirt of batter has a purpose with the face details being the first on the skillet. After the face he fills in the shape of the gorilla with the plain colored pancake batter and after a minute he flips it over. This flip reveals an amazing work of edible art.
This dad has turned breakfast into an experience I would have loved as a child. I’m sure his kids really get a kick out of it. He uses a book with gorilla pictures in it to guide him at where he needs to place the different batter and there is no denying which one is which. A gorilla is the first one done then an orangutan, bonobo, chimpanzee, gibbon, and a siamang.
This would be a wonderful thing to do for a fun Sunday breakfast but, I’m sure you would need plenty of practice in order to master this technique that this dad has made look so easy.
