Ingredients

  • 4 Weet-Bix™, finely crushed
  • 1 ¼ cup wholemeal flour, or whole spelt flour
  • 3 tsp baking powder
  • ¼ cup dark chocolate chips, or blueberries
  • 2 cups So Good Unsweetened Almond Milk or Soy Lite Milk
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 Tbsp maple syrup, or brown sugar
  • 1 Tbsp olive oil
To decorate
  • Thick yoghurt or whipped topping, for a tail
  • Strawberry and/or banana slices, for foot pads
  • Chocolate chips or raisins, for toe pads

Method

  1. Place Weet-Bix, flour, baking powder, and chocolate chips in a large bowl.
  2. In a separate jug, whisk together So Good milk, eggs, syrup, and oil.
  3. Add wet ingredient to dry and whisk well. Batter will be quite thin initially, set aside for 5 mins to thicken.
  4. Place a non-stick pan over medium heat. Scoop batter onto hot pan, and cook pancakes 3 mins each side until golden.
  5. Bunny-tail pancakes: use a generous 1/4 cup of batter for the body, and a dessert spoon for the feet. Full bunnies: scant 1/4 cup for the head, and a dessert spoon for the ears.

Tips

  • Recipe makes 8 bunny tail pancakes with bodies and feet, or 5 – 6 bunnies with body, head, feet, and ears. Recipe can be easily halved or doubled.
  • Blitz Weet-Bix in a blender or processor, instead of crushing by hand, for an extra smooth batter.
