The video above shows how pancake artist Nathan Shields managed to craft these very intricate flapjacks. But Shields, who is also an illustrator, math teacher and father, doesn’t limit his edible art to musicians. On his [Facebook page](https://www.facebook.com/saipancakes/timeline), he posts pictures of other creations, featuring everything from marine animals to _Star Wars_ characters. Still, we’re pretty sure the Fab Four flapjacks are our favorite. Even the [official Facebook page for the Beatles](https://www.facebook.com/thebeatles/posts/10152723793664539) has shared the clip. _Alternate headlines for this post included:_ Everyone Should Come Together to Admire These Beatles Pancakes We’ve Got to Get These Beatles Pancakes Into Our Lives Happiness Is a Warm Beatles Pancake When I Find Myself in Times of Trouble, Beatles Pancakes Come to Me The Long and Winding Road That Leads Me to Your Beatles Pancakes Hey Jude Don’t Make It Bad, Take a Sad Pancake and Make It a Beatles Pancake You Say You Want Some Beatles Pancakes, Well You Know We All Want to Change the World You May Say I’m a Dreamer, But… Beatles Pancakes ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/3452882/beatles-pancakes/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/3452882/beatles-pancakes/"},"headline":"We'd Travel Across the Universe for These Beatles Pancakes","datePublished":"2014-10-01T17:15:43.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:13:31.479Z","description":"Got to get these into our lives","url":"https://time.com/3452882/beatles-pancakes/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Food & Drink","Paul McCartney","breakfast","John Lennon","Beatles","Pancakes","Dad"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt40df7d91383ee058/6986a65a3bc9998b901a5a1d/screen-shot-2014-10-01-at-11-36-36-am.png?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Samantha Grossman","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/samantha-grossman/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt40df7d91383ee058/6986a65a3bc9998b901a5a1d/screen-shot-2014-10-01-at-11-36-36-am.png?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Screen Shot 2014-10-01 at 11.36.36 AM","caption":"","creditText":"","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/3452882/beatles-pancakes/","name":"We'd Travel Across the Universe for These Beatles Pancakes"}}]}] ```
