Instructions
Creating a fun and spooky Halloween breakfast can be made simple with these following steps. Here’s a breakdown of three fun spooky breakfast ideas:
Spooky Pancake Faces
1. Make the Batter: In a bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. In another bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and melted butter.
2. Mix Dry and Wet: Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined.
3. Add Color: Divide the batter into separate bowls and add food coloring to create black and orange pancakes.
4. Cook the Pancakes: Heat a skillet and pour 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form, then flip and cook until golden.
5. Create Faces: Once cooked, use whipped cream, chocolate chips, and fruit slices to create spooky faces on the pancakes.
Witches’ Brew Smoothie
1. Blend the Ingredients: In a blender, combine 1 banana, 1 cup spinach, 1 cup almond milk, and 1 tablespoon peanut butter. Blend until smooth.
2. Add Color: Drop in a few drops of green food coloring for an added spooky effect.
3. Serve: Pour the green smoothie into glasses and top with edible eyes or gummy worms for a chilling effect.
Ghostly Toast with Banana
1. Prepare the Toast: Toast slices of bread until golden brown.
2. Create Ghosts: Spread a layer of cream cheese or peanut butter on each slice.
3. Dress Up Your Ghosts: Cut bananas into half-moons and place them on the toast to form the ghost’s head. Use chocolate chips or edible eyes for eyes.
4. Add a Scary Touch: Drizzle chocolate syrup or berry jam for a bloody effect on your ghost toast.
