Creating Halloween Pancakes is simple and can be done in a few easy steps:

1. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.

2. Prepare Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, beat the eggs and then add the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Mix until everything is well blended.

3. Combine Mixtures: Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; small lumps are okay.

4. Divide the Batter: If you want to make different colors of pancakes, divide the batter into separate bowls and add a few drops of food coloring to each. Stir to combine until the desired colors are achieved.

5. Heat the Griddle: Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with cooking spray or butter.

6. Pour the Batter: Using a ladle, pour a scoop of batter onto the griddle for each pancake. Adjust the size based on your preference.

7. Cook the Pancakes: Cook for 2-3 minutes or until small bubbles form on the surface. Flip the pancakes gently and cook for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown. Repeat this process for all the batter.

8. Decorate: Once cooked, you can decorate your pancakes using whipped cream to create spooky faces or colorful toppings like sprinkles, chocolate syrup, or fruit.

9. Serve Immediately: These pancakes are best enjoyed fresh off the griddle. Serve them warm, and let everyone enjoy the Halloween vibes!

10. Optional Challenge: Create fun shapes like ghosts and pumpkins by tweaking how you pour the batter on the griddle.
