EZ Apple-Cinnamon Pancake Bears
(click on image to enlarge)
Makes about 5 pancakes
I got the idea for these adorable bear-pancakes when watching “27 dresses” and knew my kids would love them…and they do!!! I make them late morning and serve them for dinner that night.
(pic taken before dehydrating)
Ingredients
- 1 apple, skin removed
- ¾ cup golden flax seed, ground
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ cup water, or as needed
- blueberries , for eyes
- cut strawberries, for mouth
Preparation
Process apple in food processor or blender. Add remaining ingredients (except blueberries and strawberries) and blend until a batter is formed. You can add more water if it is too thick but you want it pretty thick to shape it.
Put a large scoop on the teflex sheet and form into a pancake. Take two smaller dollops and form ears (you can use a spoon or small spatula to shape the face). Add eyes for blueberries and cut strawberries for mouths.
Put in dehydrator on 105. After 3 hours flip using a spatula and dehyrate for another 3 hours. Serve with maple syrup.
