Recipe
Easter Bunny Breakfast Pancake
Ingredients
For the Pancakes:
- 1 ripe banana
- 2 eggs
- 2 tablespoon all purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon milk
- ¼ teaspoon baking powder
For the decoration:
- 2 banana
- 2 strawberries
- 4 blueberries
- 1 carrot
Instructions
- Start with the pancake batter. Place the banana and eggs in a blender and blend until smooth, about 10 seconds. Add the flour, milk and baking powder and blend until just combined, about 5 seconds. If, for some reason, the batter is too loose, add 1 extra tablespoon of flour.
- Heat a large nonstick pan over medium low heat, and brush it with a little butter. Pour a ladle of pancake batter, and cook each pancake until small bubbles form, then flip it on the other side and cook for one more minute.
- For each bunny face, you’ll make three pancakes – one 5-inch large pancake, and two small 1 ½ inch pancakes. They don't have to be exactly this size, as long as you make one big pancake and two small ones, you're good to go.
- Once ready, transfer the pancakes onto a plate and prepare the decorations.
- Cut a banana in half horizontally, then again in half vertically, to make two sets of bunny ears. Slice the remaining banana to make 2 sets of bunny eyes. Cut two more slices and cut them into rectangles to make two sets of teeth. Cut the 2 strawberries ends to make two bunny noses. Cut the carrot into 12 thin strips to make the bunny whiskers.
