It's not uncommon to hear about sharks making people into their breakfast, but these shark pancakes allow the roles to be reversed, if only for a little bit. The pancakes are extremely close to what the actual sharks look like and are also incredibly delicious.

It's not shark week yet and won't be for a few months, but these pancakes are keeping the king of the sea fresh in the mind. The pancakes range from the Great White to extinct species like the Helicoprion. If you're looking for a breakfast that is equal parts delicious and educational, then these shark pancakes will hit the spot.

They are also made out of normal ingredients, so making them is as easy as possible.
