For Ohanian, making pancakes for his daughters isn’t just a morning routine—it is a tradition rooted in love, bonding, and memories. Inspired by his father, the Reddit co-founder has reimagined the art of pancake-making, turning it into a delightful display of shapes and designs. From hamburgers to Disney Princesses, his creations have earned him the affectionate title of “Papa Pancakes”. What began as a bonding moment with his elder daughter, Olympia, has now blossomed into a popular social media episode. In May, Ohanian introduced his youngest daughter, Adira, to this heartwarming tradition. By November, the Reddit co-founder was sharing adorable updates of little Adira enjoying his pancakes, often with Olympia lending a helping hand in the kitchen. For Ohanian, these simple yet meaningful moments capture the essence of their father-daughter connection.
Recently, Ohanian tweeted two photos on X, highlighting his latest pancake creation. The first showed the pancake in progress, while the second revealed the finished masterpiece—a pancake spelling out Adira’s name. Alongside the photos, he wrote, “Sunday pancakes—made sure @AdiraOhanian got her own.” The post delighted his followers.

For Olympia, these pancakes are more than just food—they’ve been her educational tool as well. In a conversation last month, Ohanian and his wife, Serena Williams, shared how this thoughtful tradition has been a creative way to nurture and teach their daughters, making their breakfast a time for bonding and learning.

Alexis Ohanian’s Papa Pancakes is an educational tool
The Reddit co-founder attended Lingo’s Spike Sessions with his wife Serena Williams and revealed their family insider details, including their binge meals and many other things about parenthood. However, when asked about their family’s go-to breakfast, Williams said overjoyingly, “Papa Pancakes.” After her response, Ohanian delved deeper into the purpose of this tradition and said, “When Olympia was little and couldn’t really speak, I’d make alphabet letters in the pancakes for every letter in her name. I can’t take all the credit for her learning to read, but pancakes definitely played a part.” His response delighted the audience highlighting how intensely and carefully he tries to help his daughters grow positively.
