Christmas Recipes for Kids - Rudolph Pancakes

Because we're approaching Christmas (soon-ish) I thought that some Christmas-inspired recipes would be fun. And as we all know, with kids around, it's important to know about things early so that we can plan!

This recipe is super cute and requires only 20 minutes from beginning to table.

Rudolph Pancakes

Serves: 4 | Prep: 0:10 | Cook 0:10

Ingredients

• 1 cup (250ml) milk
• 1 egg, lightly beaten
• 1 cup (150g) self-raising flour
• 2 tbsp butter
• 4 rashers streaky bacon
• 4 white marshmallows
• 8 dark choc chips
• 4 strawberries

Method

1. Make a basic pancake batter by whisking together milk and egg in a large bowl. 
2. Sift over flour and whisk until smooth.
3. Melt 2 teaspoons butter in a large frying pan. 
4. Pour in batter to form one large circle, one smaller circle and two triangles for ears. Cook for a couple of minutes until bubbles form, flip and cook for a further minute until cooked through. Remove and keep warm. 
5. Repeat with remaining ingredients.
6. Cut bacon rashers in half and cook until crisp. 

To arrange Rudolph

• Place the large pancake on a plate. 
• Place smaller pancake on top. 
• Position rashers for antlers and the triangular pancakes for ears. 
• Decorate with marshmallow eyes and strawberry nose.
• Cut marshmallows in half. Press a choc chip into the centre of each half.
