Op mentally crashes when he finds out they all have Celiac and can’t eat them.
Shoutout to Safeway’s store brand gluten-free pancake mix!
Have you ever had pancakes or waffles made with almond or coconut flour? Holy shit they are so good, that extra bit of flavor? Changes everything. They do tend to be a bit heavier, but I’d argue that’s great for something like pancakes.
For bonus points, use pandan extract for flavoring instead of vanilla. It’ll turn them green, and it’s delicious. Goes well with the non-wheat flours.
(I don’t have any reason to avoid wheat flour, but I do have access to inexpensive non-wheat flours so I like to play around)

No but I’m willing to try some hemp seed flour.
Heck yeah, that’s one I haven’t seen around here (which is sad because my area used to be big for hemp production!)
I hope it’s amazing!
Should be nutty and earthy.
Wheat free flour does exist with many alternatives.
That is adorable!!!
I got to make pancakes with my daughter for the first time this year!
That’s the best!
For me it was making bacon for a sleepover. While making it, I realized it was something I’ve always wanted to do.
I make pancakes for the kiddos almost every day. It is amazing. I also put a crap ton of chocolate chips in them.
If you think you’re doing your children a favor by feeding them junk/setting them up for diabetes, you’re not. If you really love your children, do things the hard way and the right way and feed them healthy.
Ah, the dichotomy of Dad groups vs Mom groups. You’re judging @Dadifer@lemmy.world entirely on one tiny happy insight into their life. Maybe their kid has underweight struggles and calories are calories. Maybe by everyday they mean everyday they have them every other weekend, but that’s too painful to say. You don’t fucking know, and this isn’t a life advice thread. Celebrate they have a kid they want to be involved with.
Calories are absolutely not calories. Being underweight is not a free pass to the buffet. The habits we create for our kids will become lifelong struggles. Normalize healthy eating and help them learn to make good choices.
Calories are calories when you have end stage cancer and trying to keep on the weight for the next chemo.
My parents had me nutritionally fucked-up until I fixed myself in my '30s. parents have a huge responsibility to learn nutrition and feed their children right, So their children start out with good nutrition and good eating habits, instead of wasting 20 to 30 years of their lives suffering from nutrition-related illnesses.
^ username tracks…
Their sugar levels are fine, thanks!
I’m sure in the last 50 minutes you took your children to the doctor to get full comprehensive blood screenings to come back and report that to us. Great.
Oh for God’s sake, dude. You’re being verifiably ridiculous.
Yes I’m taking a moment to project my own issues here because I could have had a beautiful first 20 years if my parents hadn’t nutritionally fucked me up. It took me another 10 to 20 years to fix that. every child deserves a good start. It really sucks to spend the rest of one’s life undoing the damage our parents did.
That does honestly suck. I’m sorry that happened for you, bud. I have some issues with my parents that I’m still working on, it’s tough.
you in this thread
My girlfriend and her daughter will be moving in with me soon. I am so stupidly excited to go to zoos and aquariums and museums and take them to all the fun kid stuff.
I want to do ALL the things with them.
Any toppers?
I always like stuff like strawberries or blueberries, as well as walnut or pecan pieces.
We can get into syrup alternatives too, if you want. Lol
Sometimes I like slicing up apples or pears, drizzling them with maple syrup and cinnamon, and baking them until soft while I make the pancakes themselves :)
I also enjoy smearing the pancakes with butter and sprinkling them with sugar for something simpler. Sometimes syrup is just to much for me.
Holy shit, you made me really hungry right now. XD
I really need to try that out later. I need to get an oven first though…
Also, unrelated, but your username is straight up nostalgic! Must be from the 90’s. Lol
Love the guys enthusiasm, but fuck pancakes. I eat about 3 bites n I’m over them. Thanks for coming to my TED talk
We expect a baby girl in May, can’t wait to make first pancakes for her
Pancake Day was in fact Tuesday gone.
Man, I’m so jealous, we had to skip pancake day because my “little” one just got his wisdom teeth out (how is he already in high school?)
I read this when it was first posted but after more than a day, I can’t stop thinking about waking them up in the middle of the night for pancakes. I may have missed my window of opportunity since my kids are older but I’m going to keep this prank in mind
That post is as dad as socks with sandals
Y’all need Waffle Jesus.
Is pancakes for breakfast a specific thing for sleepovers? Does it have to be pancakes or can it be any kind of dinner?
French toast is an accepted substitute, but not cereal.
