Cloud Pancakes

We just started making these really yummy “German” pancakes this last summer and they were so fun! I remember having these as a kid over at the neighbors house but I don’t remember my family making them. So we decided to bring them back into the family. When I originally made these pancakes in an earlier video I got a lot of messages and people commenting that they aren’t really “German” pancakes. So the other day when I was making them I decided to rename them in our house to cloud pancakes. They look like cloud when they come out! There ya go!

I was shocked to see that our middle son, Krew loves them. He can eat and eat these! I think what he loves most is the syrup on top though! Ha ha! He is my hardest child to feed and so when he comes to me begging for something I make I will gladly do it for him! I think the kids also enjoy a hot breakfast, the school mornings are so crazy and hectic they enjoy getting a fun and fancy breakfast!

Ingredients: (for the cloud pancake)

1 cup all-purpose flour

Ingredients: (for the syrup)

1 cup granulated sugar

1/2 cup buttermilk

1/2 cup butter(1 stick)

1 tsp coconut extract

1 tsp baking soda

Instructions:

Instructions for syrup:

This recipe really is so fun because you can watch it transform so quickly. The kids love to watch it grow from the window of the oven. This syrup recipe is super similar to one we got from a friend but I wanted to include it here for you all so you didn’t need to chase around for it. This syrup recipe can easily be switched out for vanilla if you prefer that over coconut. We are coconut lovers over here at this house!

Who Are The Binghams?

Get to know the Binghams! Our family consists of 7 family members and a furry friend! Branden and Mindy- We are the parents, okay Mindy is the parent! Branden acts like an energetic 5 year old most of the time. But we love this quality about him! We have been married for 11 years. We met in 2005 at the University of Utah while going to school. Mindy was studying Meteorology and Branden was studying Communications. He graduated from the U of U with a B.S. in Communications. We got married in Salt Lake City and have loved being married since. Branden brought his beautiful almost 2 year old princess to the marriage, so that meant Mindy would be a step-mom right away! This was a little scary for her as we got married when she was 19.

The relationship between Mindy and Madison has been flawless! Madison lives with her mom in California. About 2 years into being married we decided it was time to grow our family. After many prayers we welcomed our sweet Ryler to the family! He is the sweetest little boy and the one who our next 3 would call oldest bro. A little less than 2 years after that we had our sweet Krew! He was the happiest little baby and Ryler and Madi just loved him! Mindy was now the mom of two boys! A little over 2 years later we had yet another BOY, Brexsen! WOW! We were shocked! Our two older boys couldn’t have been more excited to have another boy in the family! After more prayers and a short struggle to get pregnant we found out we were pregnant again! Sadly, Mindy miscarried, but very shortly after we found out we were expecting our sweet Hazyl.

She is the light of the family! She has every single one of us wrapped around her finger! Just a few short months after we had our sweet Hazy we found our Lazzy! Found frozen in the snow, he was rescued and resuscitated by Branden’s brother and he is now our furry friend! Shortly after having Hazy, the time came for us to move! We had outgrown our little townhouse and found the beautiful house we call home now! Life has been so good to us and we are so grateful! Of course, it hasn’t been without its trials and struggles but together as a family we can do anything! Our family is just the right mix of chaos & love and This Is How We Bingham!!
