Supplies Needed To Make These Fun Barbie Pink Pancakes
Pink Pancake Ingredients:
- 1 quart of strawberries
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1/4 cup of oil
- 1 egg
- 2 cups of pancake mix
- 1/4 cup sugar or strawberry syrup
How to Make Pink Pancakes
Step 1
Wash the strawberries and cut the tops off.
Step 2
Place the buttermilk in a blender and add the strawberries. Blend until completely smooth.
Step 3
Measure out 2 cups of the strawberry/buttermilk mixture and it to the oil, egg and pancake mix.
Note:
If the mixture isn’t as pink as you would like, then add strawberry syrup to it instead of sugar to sweeten.
Step 4
If the batter is the proper thickness, then pour on a greased griddle at 350 degrees flipping when golden pink.
Note:
If the batter is too thin, add a little more pancake mix. If the batter is too thick, then add some of the reserved strawberry/buttermilk mixture or additional strawberry syrup.
Step 5
Stack and top with more strawberries or a simple glaze of milk & powdered sugar. Add pink sprinkles if desired.
Step 6
Invite Barbie and friends for a breakfast treat!

when i was younger i my uncle bought my a huge barbie house for my 8th birthday! it was 2 stories, had an elevator, had lights. a kitchen, bedrooms, everything. i also had a cute barbie volks wagon , and i had a barbie suit case that held all of my barbies in place. i loved it.
My birthday wish for Barbie is 350 more great careers and many more years of fun.
My sister, brother *yes brother* and I spent many, many hours playing with barbies. Action figures and legos always worked their way into play as well. My daughter is 7 years old now and for every birthday and Christmas since she was 4 she would ask for Barbies. Only sad part? She doesn’t let her brother play. 🙁 Happy Birthday Barbie!!

I remember saving up my allowance as a kid to buy Barbie dolls. I couldn’t afford to buy all the outfits I wanted, so I learned to make my own Barbie clothes. I grew up to enjoy making clothes for myself. 🙂
I have many great Barbie memories from my childhood. One of my fondest: The neighborhood girls would gather up their Barbie stuff that they were willing to trade. Then we’d all meet on one porch & trade the day away, each going home with new Barbie goodies!
Tweety bird barbie was my fav
I remember playing with Barbies and putting them in awesome clothes my Grandma made.
I actually did not have Barbies as a kid! But I was very excited when my kids started playing with Barbies, they really have a lot of fun. They actually like the Barbie movies a lot more than the dolls, and I have seen all of them! The last one was bought was the Pony Adventure 🙂
I would dress the Barbies up for hours trying all different outfits…and the classic Barbie “table” from the pizza box…:)
My favorite memory of barbie, was my sisters beautiful lilac and lovely barbie.
