Pancake Shot Glasses

Maple Syrup and Pancake Shot GlassesLike I mentioned with my Corn Dog Doughnuts, usually when something has already been done I’ll shy away from writing about it here on DudeFoods, but this was another idea  that was just way too great to pass up.

Plus, like the brand new doughnut pan that was just sitting in my kitchen cabinet I also had a silicone shot glass mold that I bought a while back that was still begging to be used for the first time.

I first heard about the idea of Pancake Shot Glasses while I was sitting at work listening to the Scoring Position podcast. Co-hosts Alyssa and Amanda were talking about a brunch they hosted where Amanda made Pancake Shot Glasses and then filled them with syrup.

A couple thoughts came to mind when I heard this. The first was that the next time I’m in NYC I definitely need to grab brunch with Alyssa and Amanda and the second was that I needed to make Pancake Shot Glasses for myself! Well, I finally got around to it and I’m happy to report that they’re just as amazing as I expected!

To make them you’ll need a shot glass mold similar to this one, but aside from that they’re super simple as you basically just need to fill the mold with pancake batter and throw it in your oven for 20 minutes. I also garnished mine with bacon slices because no breakfast is complete without bacon.

The other thing that’s great about these Pancake Shot Glasses is that after seeing how great they worked I’ve now got about ten more food-related shot glass ideas I want to try.

Just think about how amazing some corn bread shot glasses filled with pulled pork could be! Or maybe fried chicken shot glasses filled with waffle sticks! The possibilities are endless!

      This post is from pretty long ago, so I don’t remember exactly but I think I sprayed non-stick cooking spray into the molds before I added the pancake batter. Aside from that though to get them out after baking it’s easiest to just pop the mold so it’s inside out and then just slowly twist the shot glasses off of the middle of the mold.
