Today I’m featuring my favorite fun kid’s breakfast ideas. How about a snowman pancake? I fix these the morning of Christmas Eve, and the kids love them. They make the kids happy and they put everyone in a festive mood. So, festive pancakes are a great way to start the Christmas celebration. Besides, they are quick, easy and fun to make. To make things more festive, try to find a winter themed plate to place them on. You should be able to find them on at the Dollar Tree, Big Lots or Dollar General. I found the plates shown at the Dollar Tree.
The recipe for these snowman pancakes is simple:
Step 2 – Use a black food pen to make the buttons, mouth and eyes. If you don’t have a food pen on hand, use chocolate chips.
Step 3 – Cut 2 strips of bacon, 1 for the scarf and 1 for the arms. You cut out fingers in the bacon with a pair of scissors for the arms. I was lucky when I made the pancakes this time. I found snowman paper plates, so I didn’t make the bacon arms. Place the other piece between the small and medium pancakes for the scarf.
These pancakes are fun and easy to make. They should be placed on your fun kid’s breakfast ideas list. Get out the griddle and get to work. The adults enjoy them as much as the kids. There’s a child in each of us, and they come roaring to the surface during the holidays. When the children eat everything on their plate, I tell them that they’ve made a happy plate. I’m sure there will be happy plates in your home too. Enjoy!

Hey Terra, The kids love them, and look forward to me making them each season. I add a few apple slices, and they have a hearty, healthy breakfast. HoHoHo! Happy Holidays.
Amara and I love making pancakes together but we've never made them into snowman! What a cute idea — and she loves bacon! Thanks Rhonda!
There you go, something to look forward to with Amara. The kids always make a happy plate with snowman pancakes. Fun and tasty!
Those are quite cute and festive for the holidays! I'll have to make some for my family soon.
