Heart pancake cereal is a vegan pancake made in sheet pans and cut into heart-shaped. This is the popular tik tok recipe but done in a different way, the whole batter is poured into a sheet pan and baked. Then shape them into the heart or any other shape you like using a cookie cutter.
This is a fun way to prepare for breakfast on Valentine’s day. Impress your loved ones with the heart-shaped pancakes. Pull the heartbreak(leftover pieces) pancake and use them as a cereal too. Give the heartbreak cereal if your loved ones don’t meet your expectations 🙂
