Rudolph Pancakes

I love Christmas and I love pancakes so this is the ideal recipe for me. Some pancakes are good to make in advance but these are best eaten fresh. Little slices of strawberries and blueberries, definitely make up for all the maple syrup 🤣 so Rudolf Pancakes would make a nice addition to a healthier North Pole breakfast.

*makes around 6 Rudolphs

You Will Need

300g plain flour

400ml semi skimmed milk or non-dairy alternative – oat milk is good for this recipe

2 eggs or 6 tablespoons of aquafaba

1 teaspoon cinnamon

Strawberries

Blueberries

Maple Syrup

Method

Slice the strawberries
Combine the eggs, flour, cinnamon, syrup and 300ml of milk until smooth – it should be quite thick
Set aside
Lightly oil your cooking surface (frying pan or hot plate) with a little sunflower or vegetable oil and bring to a medium/high heat
To make Rudolph you need two different types of batter – thick and thin
Fill a small condiment bottle (the kind you’d use for mustard or ketchup) or piping bag with the thick pancake mix
Thin out the rest of the mixture with milk from the remaining 100ml. Only use as much as you need fir the mixture to flow freely
Using the thick batter mix, squeeze out an oval shape and some antlers. You can make the antlers as seperate shapes if you find it easier
Spoon thin batter into the piped shape
Cook until bubbles show on the surface and carefully flip
Cook the other side
Place the pancake in to a large plate
Use the berries to make eyes and a red nose
Drizzle with maple syrup
