Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ¼ tsp salt
- 1 cup buttermilk (or milk + 1 tsp lemon)
- 1 egg
- 2 tbsp melted butter
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 6 large pancakes
- 4 small pancakes (ears and eyes base)
- 2 blueberries (eyes)
- 2 banana slices (eye whites)
- 2 red candies or cranberries (nose — Rudolph style)
- Fresh cranberries (around plate)
- Melted chocolate (for antlers)
- Powdered sugar (snowy effect)
Instructions
- In a bowl, mix the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In another bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, egg, vanilla, and melted butter.
- Combine the wet and dry mixtures gently, being careful not to overmix. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes.
- Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and pour the batter to form large pancakes for the face and small pancakes for the ears and under eyes. Cook for 1-2 minutes per side until golden.
- Melt the chocolate and pipe or drizzle antler shapes onto parchment paper. Freeze for 5-10 minutes until solid.
- Stack 2-3 large pancakes to create the face. Add 2 small pancakes on either side as ears. Place the banana slices and blueberries for the eyes, and a red candy or cranberry as the nose. Insert the chocolate antlers on top, arrange cranberries around the plate, and dust lightly with powdered sugar for a snowy finish.
Notes
- Ensure not to overmix the batter for the fluffiest pancakes.
- Use a non-stick pan to prevent sticking.
- The design can be customized with different fruits or decorations.
