2. 2

   Add the milk, vanilla and eggs and mix until smooth.

   Divide the batter into smaller bowls.

4. 4

   For each bowl, you will need about 1 teaspoon of flavor extract and 4 to 5 drops of gel food coloring.

5. 5

   I recommend using food coloring gel which is brighter (regular food coloring will also work; you will just need to use a bit more).

   You can match it to the desired flavor; for instance, yellow for banana, red for raspberry, etc.

8. 8

   Heat a nonstick frying pan or griddle, melt some butter and pour the batter to create pancake rounds.
