Method

Pancake Preparation

  1. 1

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt until well combined.

  2. 2

    Combine Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, beat the egg and then mix in the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.

  3. 3

    Combine Mixtures

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Do not overmix; it's okay if there are a few lumps.

Cooking Pancakes

  1. 4

    Heat the Pan

    Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with a little butter or cooking spray.

  2. 5

    Pour Batter

    For the Mickey Mouse shape, pour a small circle of batter for the head (about 1/4 cup), and two smaller circles on top for the ears (about 2 tablespoons each).

  3. 6

    Cook Pancakes

    Cook until bubbles form on the surface of the pancakes and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes on the other side until golden brown.

  4. 7

    Repeat

    Repeat the process with the remaining batter, adjusting the heat as necessary to prevent burning.

Serving

  1. 8

    Plate and Decorate

    Stack the pancakes on a plate, and use chocolate chips for the eyes and mouth, and sliced strawberries for the bow tie or decoration. Add syrup and whipped cream on top as desired.

  2. 9

    Enjoy

    Serve warm and enjoy your delightful Mickey Mouse pancakes!
