These fluffy rainbow pancake wheel cakes bring vibrant colors and nostalgic flavors to your breakfast table, perfect for family fun and special occasions.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups (190g) all-purpose flour
  • 3 ½ teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1 ¼ cups (300ml) milk (whole milk or buttermilk preferred)
  • 1 large egg, room temperature
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted (plus more for the pan)
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • Gel food coloring (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple)

Instructions

  1. Mix the dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar until well combined.
  2. Whisk the wet ingredients: In another bowl, beat milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  3. Combine batter: Slowly pour wet ingredients into dry, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
  4. Divide and color batter: Divide batter evenly into six small bowls and add gel food coloring to each bowl. Stir gently.
  5. Prepare cooking surface: Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil.
  6. Create the wheel pattern: Using squeeze bottles or piping bags, pipe small circles of each colored batter side by side in concentric rings on the pan.
  7. Cook pancakes: Cook for 2-3 minutes until bubbles form and edges look set, then carefully flip and cook an additional 1-2 minutes until golden.
  8. Serve warm: Slide pancakes onto a plate and serve immediately with syrup, fresh fruit, or whipped cream if desired.

Notes

If batter is too thick to pipe, add a splash of milk; if too thin, add a little more flour. Use fresh baking powder for best rise. Control heat to medium to avoid burning or rubbery pancakes. Flip only when bubbles form and edges are set. Practice piping on parchment paper if needed.
