Tips for Perfect Bunny Pancakes
Use a Squeeze Bottle
For cleaner shapes, pour batter from a squeeze bottle or measuring cup with a spout.
Cook Ears First
Ears are thinner and cook quickly — make them first to avoid overbrowning.
Keep Pancakes Warm
Place finished pancakes on a baking sheet in a 200°F oven while finishing the rest.
Make It Healthier
Use whole wheat flour or half whole wheat/half all-purpose for extra fiber.
Fun Topping Ideas
Make your bunny even more festive:
- Blueberries for eyes
- Strawberries for a bow tie
- Coconut flakes for “fur”
- Nut butter drizzle
- Mini chocolate chips for facial features
