A stack of pancakes with syrup.

Fluffy Banana Choco Chip PancakeHere's a simple recipe you can even teach your kids to do it for themselves.

The other ingredients, they can be estimated so it's safe for your children to participate this activity but still teach them the right estimate and proper procedure to get good results.
