Valentine’s Day is coming right up, so why not woo your sweetie with a meal straight from the heart? These cute pancakes are the perfect thing to serve up for a breakfast in bed – and, since February is also National Hot Breakfast Month, you can also declare it “Breakfast Night” and have hotcakes for dinner! Here’s how to create pancakes with love:
Valentine’s Day Pancakes

1 C Krusteaz Buttermilk Pancake Mix
1 1/4 C Krusteaz Honey Wheat Pancake Mix
1 TBSP juice from a jar of Maraschino Cherries
Red food coloring

Cooking sprayDirections:
In a bowl, combine Krusteaz Buttermilk Pancake Mix with 2/3 C water, Maraschino Cherry juice and 5 drops of red food coloring. Whisk until smooth, and pour into a pancake art squeeze bottle.
