Spaghetti Pancake
These spaghetti pancakes turn a simple pancake batter into thin strips cooked in a pan. Pile them onto a plate and add maple syrup, chocolate chips, or butter for a playful breakfast.
For another fun breakfast, try my peanut butter brownie waffles.
A small hole in a piping bag or zip-top bag helps make even lines. Keep the batter smooth so it flows without blocking the opening.

- Watch the color and adjust the heat between batches.

The batter may contain lumps or the opening may be too small. Mix until smooth and adjust the opening slightly if needed.
Why are the strips joining together?
Leave more space between lines and pipe with steady, light pressure.
Can I add chocolate chips?
Add them as a topping after cooking so they do not block the piping bag.
