I don’t know anyone who doesn’t love the Muppets and since they were always a favorite of mine growing up, I’m so excited that they are still making Muppets movies for my kids to enjoy. Muppets Most Wanted will be available August 12th at Disney.com and in anticipation of it’s Blu-Ray Combo Pack release we decided to make a Muppets Breakfast of Kermit Pancakes!
Muppets Breakfast – Kermit Pancakes
These Kermit Pancakes were a fun and simple Muppets Breakfast. And breakfast is just more fun to eat when it looks like a frog. 😉 Making these pancakes is simple. First, mix up your favorite pancake batter recipe and add a couple drops of green food coloring. A little bit goes a long way.
Next, pour the batter in circles onto a warm, but not hot griddle. I have found that when you are wanting the color to stand out that you need to cook it on a warm heat and not hot or they just turn brown. It will take longer to cook but it’s worth it. 😉
Use a sharp knife to cut one of the pancakes in half and then add zig-zags to look like Kermit’s neck. Cut some banana slices for the eyes and I hollowed out a strawberry and smashed it flat for the mouth. Just cut the strawberry in half and then scoop out as much of the insides as you can.
Add the bananas for eyes with raisins for the pupils and the strawberry for the mouth. Then you have a fun Muppets Breakfast that will make anyone smile. And as I’ve mentioned before on some of our other pancake posts, you will be amazed at how fast your kids will gobble up their fruit. It is always the first thing to go. We even made a baby Kermit for my baby (who is almost three but will always be called the baby. 😉 ) I actually think the baby Kermit is the cutest! And I think baby liked him quite a bit. In Muppets Most Wanted the Muppets are once again setting out on an adventure, but this time they are traveling in the world. Their vacation doesn’t go as planned when the world’s number one criminal Constantine, who happens to look just like Kermit, gets Kermit thrown in jail while he plots the robbery of the century. Will Kermit escape in time to save the day? Muppets Most Wanted is available on Blu-ray Combo pack and Digital HD on August 12th at Disney.com. It is the perfect family film full of music, special guest cameos and exclusive scenes not seen in theaters. Follow along with all of the Muppets adventures on Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest.

Yay for boy mamas! Yes, my boys absolutely loved these and they were so simple. I always laugh at how fast they will eat their fruit when it is given to them in a fun way. It’s a little trick of mine. 😉
So cute! I just love these! My grandma used to make funny shaped pancakes for us and we just loved it!
My dad is the one who got me started with making shaped pancakes. He always had something fun to make on Saturday morning. Such fun memories!
These are so cute and your boys look so excited about them. My kids and grand kids would love them.
Love your Kermit Pancakes, as well as your other pancake creations!
Ah..thanks Abbie! I have a lot of fun coming up with Pancake creations. They are just too much fun!
My kids love the muppets. Their favorite muppet scene ever is when Kermit is singing Rainbow Connection in the swamp at the beginning of The Muppet Movie. My husband is the pancake maker in the family. I will have to show him this. Thanks so much for sharing your talent with us. You are a great mom. Those boys are so lucky!
Thanks so much Abbie. You are so sweet! We love all of the Muppets movies but I love the Rainbow Connection so much. 🙂
Absolutely adorable! Thanks for sharing, Kara.
These are super cute!
Hi Kara,
We love fun food! These are really neat. I would serve them for family movie night dinner and watch the new Muppet’s movie, of course.
Of course! 😉 We love breakfast for dinner and sometimes that is the only time that I can make fun creations like this since we aren’t rushed to get somewhere. Thanks for stopping by!
This is just ADORABLE! I found you on Stone Cottage Adventures’ blog hop. Have you stopped by mine to share this yet? PLEASE DO!
It is called Wonderful Wednesday Blog Hop and we are goin’ strong right now.
Hey, I have pinned this post and bookmarked it for my F is for Frog preschool lesson. We may not be able to make pancakes at school ( but I will look for a way) but the moms can do it at home for their little loves as reinforcement of our lesson.
How fun is that! You sound like a great preschool teacher. I’ll have to check out your blog hop even though I’m a day late. 🙂
Hi Kara,
Your Muppets Breakfast is just adorable, very creative! Thanks so much for sharing your awesome recipe with Full Plate Thursday this week. Have a great weekend and come back real soon!

Wow awesome idea!
We just rented the new Muppets Most Wanted movie at the Library. We had alot of fun making Kermit pancakes for dinner. It was a fun themed night. My two boys loved them, and ate all the fruit (of course, it’s funner to say Kermit eyes and mouth!) Thank you for the creative idea. Your blog is such a great resource for us mom’s of boys.
Oh my goodness, my girls would love this. They have recently discovered the muppets and I love that because I used to watch them all the time when I was little. Will have to make these Saturday for breakfast. Thanks a bunch!!
