My son is already obsessed with playing in the kitchen. He wants to help put away the dishes, he serves himself juice, and he loves to help me cook breakfast. It's kind of our morning tradition. He wakes up, he grabs a step stool, and he hoists himself up to reach the countertop. One way that I can include him in our breakfast cooking is with a simple (yet fun!) cornmeal pancake recipe. It's a fun breakfast idea for a special birthday or a regular Monday morning. Top with sprinkles and whipped cream and enjoy!

  • ⅓ cup of flour
  • ¾ teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 ⅛ cups cornmeal

  • ½ cup Nutella or hazelnut spread
