Scale
Pancake Batter
- 1 batch of your favorite pancake recipe
Decorations
- Chocolate chips (regular and mini)
- Blueberries, strawberries, or bananas
- Chocolate syrup
Instructions
- Prepare the Batter: Make your pancake recipe according to your preferred directions, ensuring the batter is smooth and well mixed.
- Shape the Pancakes: Decide on your teddy bear style and carefully shape the batter into bear shapes by pouring circles of varying sizes onto a preheated pan over low heat.
- Create Multiple Circles: Use the pan to cook different-sized circles for the bear’s head and ears by controlling the batter flow onto the skillet, keeping the heat low to cook evenly.
- Alternative Shaping Method: Optionally, make three large pancakes and cut out smaller circles with kitchen scissors or mini round cookie cutters to build the bear shape more easily.
- Decorate the Bears: Use chocolate chips for eyes and nose, fruits like blueberries or sliced strawberries or bananas for additional features, and drizzle chocolate syrup to add cute details on the face and feet, completing the teddy bear look.
Notes
- Use low heat to ensure the pancakes cook thoroughly without burning.
- Mini chocolate chips work great for tiny facial features.
- Fresh fruits add color and nutritional value to the design.
- Feel free to try different fruit combinations depending on your preference.
- A non-stick skillet helps in easy flipping and shaping.
