Groundhog Day Breakfast: Punxsutawney Pancakes

Facebookpreview Groundhog Pancakes

It’s Groundhog Day…again.

Sure…it’s groundhog day, and we all know what that means. It’s the one magical day each year that we all collectively lose our minds and look to a fortune telling rodent for answers.

We can chalk this up to the fact that being cooped up indoors may have started to adversely effect our mental capacity, but instead of seeking help for our addiction to psychic rodent prognostication we can just embrace the insanity and celebrate it for all of its goofy silliness!

What better way to start your Groundhog Day with with a nice hearty breakfast in the shape of today’s meteorologist of honor, the groundhog himself. It literally only takes minutes!

Here’s what you’ll need;

  • Marshmallows
  • Chocolate Chips
  • A heart shaped cookie cutter
  • Pancake mix or the frozen pre-made pancakes (we used Aldi’s Gluten Free, because we believe that the Glutens should run wild and free, and prance through meadows – and stay the heck away from our intestines)

Press the cookie cutter into the pancake, and use the spare parts to make little half circle ears, and some paws if you’d like.

Add the chocolate chips for eyes and cut a marshmallow in the shape of teeth, and you are done!

A fun and festive breakfast to start your day in groundhog jubilee! For extra fun, pour your syrup off to the side in the shape of a shadow, and/or sprinkle powdered sugar as snow.

Happy Groundhog Day!

P.S.  Punxsutawney Phil and Holsville Hal both predict an early Spring! Yippee!!

However, no prediction has been made by this actress.

Orange is the New Black’s Pennsatucky is not a groundhog and is not in any way related to Punxsutawney Phil. She may or may not be able to predict weather trends better than a groundhog – more research is needed. Always consult an actual groundhog before making any weather related decisions. Thank you.
