Snowflake Breakfast

January 28, 2013 by Amy Hudson

Celebrate winter, snow, a snow day off school, or just make breakfast fun with snowflake pancakes!

Snowflake Pancakes

Snowflake pancakes are so easy to create.

Prepare your pancakes, and place one onto the center of a plate.

Next, use an aerosol whipped cream container to “draw” a simple snowflake design as shown above.  Make a hexagon around the border of the pancake, and add a three pointed branch coming out of each of the six points.

For a finishing, snowy touch, sprinkle some powdered sugar in the middle.

Serve snowflake pancakes alongside some fresh raspberries or strawberries and a small serving of scrambled eggs for a delightful snow day breakfast the kids will love!
