Pancakes are a big part of our breakfast. Especially on the weekends. We pretty much tried every pancake recipe ever written or told. We wanted something different. So we rolled our sleeves and came up with our own pancake recipe – Pancake Roll-Ups, because when it comes to kids – it’s all about the presentation, isn’t it?

Directions for Pancake Roll-ups: THe Kid Style

As I mentioned above we only try to eat pancakes on the weekends, so when we do it’s definitely a treat. There may or may not be chocolate involved.

We love these pancake roll-ups because it’s so easy to eat and of course, they are so so yummy. Since no forks or knives are needed here, it could be perfect for a breakfast picnic. A glass of milk would go perfectly here too.

Easy Pancake Roll-Ups Recipe: The Kid Style Ingredients

Basic Pancake Recipe Ingredients

For the Roll-ups Ingredients

Directions in Making THe Pancake roll-ups Recipe

Step 1

In a mixing bowl, mix all the pancake recipe ingredients. Make sure that the mixture is not too thick or too thin.

Step 2

Melt the butter in a pan and cook your pancakes.

Step 2

After cooking the pancakes, spread some chocolate spread on each of them. I made my own (by melting 1 bar of dark chocolate in the pan on low heat) because my kids have nut allergies. You can use Nutella or any other chocolate spreads. I believe Peanut Butter would be P.E.R.F.E.C.T. here too.

Step 3

Put banana on the pancake and roll it.

Step 4

Carefully cut the rolled-up pancake in half and then into smaller pieces.

Step 5

Add some more syrup, spread, sauce, some fruit. Whatever their little hearts desire.

Tips in making perfect pancakes for the roll-ups

For these pancake roll-ups, you can use your favorite pancake recipe. Just make sure the pancakes aren’t too thin or too thick. Somewhere between crepes and fluffy American pancakes. If you see they are coming out too thick just dilute the batter with some water or milk. If they are too thin add some more flour.

I hope you enjoy your breakfast with these pancake roll-ups and start the day with a lot of happy faces and full tummies.
