EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

For a healthy update, substitute half of the flour with whole wheat flour, and skip the butter altogether.

Not St. Patty’s Day? No problem. Simply swap the green food coloring for 3 to 4 teaspoons red food color.

I am not a big pancake fan but it was St. Patrick's Day and I wanted to make something in the green. Corned beef was out, cabbage would do but I wanted something fun and slightly sweet. These cakes were very easy to make and my family enjoyed them also. THANK YOU BETTY, you got it going on woman!!
