Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 15 g baking powder
- 2-3 vanilla essence
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- salt, a pinch
- 1 large egg
- 1/4 cup butter, melted
- 1 cup apple cider
- 1 tbsp ground cinnamon
- 1 tsp ground nutmeg
- 1 tbsp sugar
Method
Step 1
In a bowl, combine all the dry ingredients i.e. flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, sugar and salt. Mix them well with a spoon.
Step 2
Next, add the egg, melted butter and apple cider. Mix the complete thing thoroughly.
Step 3
Keep a flat-bottomed griddle on medium low heat, and a tsp of butter.
Step 4
As the butter begins to sizzle, pour the pancake mix on the griddle. Let it stay for a minute or until bubbles begin to show on the top surface.
Step 5
Turn over the pancake and let the other side get browned. This will take 2-3 minutes.
Step 6
For different shapes, you need to pour the batter in that shape and be careful that it should not break while turning it over.
Step 7
For example, for the monkey shown in the above image, pour out one big round pancake and then 2 smaller ones for the ears.
Step 8
You can serve the pancakes warm with hot coffee or bournvita milk. Decorate the kid’s plate with a few banana pieces as shown in the image.
Step 9
For the eyes and mouth, use chocolate syrup.
