Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 Cup Pineapple cubed
  • 12 Maraschino Cherries pitted; or substitute for regular cherries
  • 1 Cup Pancake Mix of Choice
  • Powdered Sugar optional; for garnishing

Instructions

  • Start by preparing your pancake batter according to the recipe / package instructions. Then, set aside.
  • Next, place your cubes of pineapple and your maraschino cherries on skewers, alternating them across the length of the skewer. I used two pieces of pineapple and two cherries on each one, but use whatever you have room for!
  • Then, heat a nonstick pan, on the stove, over medium heat.
  • While the pan is heating, take your skewers and carefully dip each one into the pancake batter, ensuring that it is fully coated in the batter.
  • Then, place your skewers into the pan, allowing them to cook for about two minutes before flipping them. Be sure to rotate the skewers about every minute, until they're golden brown and the pancake batter is fully cooked!
  • Finally, remove them from the heat, and dust them with powdered sugar, if desired. Served immediately, and enjoy!
