1. Heart Pancakes
Let’s start with heart-shaped breakfast ideas. Well, because hearts are so much fun on Valentine’s, aren’t they?
Make the perfect heart-shaped pancakes with these pancake rings. Or invest in a mini pan with 5 heart sections if you have a bigger family. Or simply make regular pancakes and cut them into heart shapes. Works just as well. Now top off the pancakes with some red berries or strawberry syrup and let the fun begin!
