Ingredients

  • 2 cups all purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 3 eggs
  • 1/4 cup butter melted

Instructions

  • Mix all ingredients except coconut oil together.
  • For three different surprise pancake colors, grab three small bowls and scoop 1/2 cup of batter into each. Color as desired.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add a tablespoon of the oil.
  • Make small pancakes out of the colored batter, about 1 1/2 to 2" round. Flip when the tops are no longer glossy and they start to bubble. Set all the small pancakes aside.
