Bunny Butt Pancakes

Bunny butt pancakes are a fun and easy breakfast to make the kids on Easter morning. Pancakes are decorated with strawberries, blueberries, and whipped cream to look like a bunny’s fluffy behind. They are certain to get lots of giggles and have everyone smiling!

After the kids find their Easter baskets on Easter morning why not whip up the cutest breakfast to celebrate the special occasion?

Easter bunny pancakes take no longer than regular pancakes to make but are 100% more fun.

Not a fan of serving up tushies for breakfast? Try these bunny face pancakes instead.

You can even give your children the pancakes, whipped cream, and a small bowl of fresh fruit and let them unleash their creativity to decorate the pancakes themselves. They will love becoming a little pancake artist!

Either way, let’s get to this easy Easter bunny butt pancake recipe.

How to make Fluffy Bunny Butt Pancakes

This section shows you how to make the recipe with step-by-step photos and instructions. For the full printable recipe, see the recipe card below. 

Step 1: In a pan or griddle, cook 3 pancakes: one larger circle and two small circles or oval shapes.

Step 2: Transfer the large pancake to a flat plate- this is the bunny’s body. Add the small pancakes to the bottom of the large pancake to create the bunny’s feet.

Step 3: Place a large sliced strawberry on each of the smaller pancakes to make the pads of the feet. Add 3 blueberries underneath each as toes.

Step 4: Add a dollop of whipped cream to the center of the large pancake.

Serve the finished pancakes with maple syrup, if desired.

Storage

Store leftover pancakes in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days.

For longer storage, pancakes can be frozen for up to two months.

Once decorated, these Easter pancakes are best enjoyed immediately.

Additions and variations

• Swap the blueberries for chocolate chips or mini marshmallows for a sweet treat.
• Use banana slices instead of strawberry slices on the bunny’s feet.
• Add another smaller pancake on top to make a bunny head. You can even use halved bananas or bacon to create bunny ears!

Expert tips & tricks

Heat up your pan. When making pancakes it is best to heat the pan over medium heat for a minute or two before adding your pancake batter.

Use two of the same size strawberry slices. To make the pads of the bunny’s feet match try to use two of the same size strawberry slices. I find this is easiest if you slice up two of the same size strawberries.

Serve on a flat plate. For the best presentation serve your Easter bunny pancakes on a flat plate.

I hope that you enjoy this fun Easter breakfast and that you and your family have a very happy Easter!
