Have you, like countless others, turned to the kitchen during quarantine? From banana bread to sourdough, people everywhere have been using this time in isolation to brush up on their culinary skills – and you should really add the newest viral dish to your recipe lists. “Pancake cereal” has quickly gone viral on TikTok and Instagram, morphing into a big-time trend food on a tiny scale.

Turns out, the recipe is pretty straightforward. Basically, all you do is grab a bottle or a bag with a small incision cut through it and fill it up with pancake batter. Then, you distribute batter discs on a greased pan and start to cook them, the way you would normal pancakes. The sides of them will start to turn a golden shade within a couple of minutes, and you should keep them coming until you have a bunch you can pile together.

Thanks to the wonderful world of TikTok and Instagram, there are already plenty of variations to try. Some people are treating the little pancakes like actual cereal and dousing them into bowls of milk. Others are just eating them with fruit, butter, and syrup like you would with any normal-sized batch.
