When it is time to deck the halls and the kids are giddy to join in the festive cheer, you're sure to feel a bit peckish. While it is no doubt fun to cut the 20th snowflake in a row out of paper, you may want to have something to snack on – and that's where our little list comes in:

Christmas bauble pancakes

It is morning and breakfast is an essential start to the day, but going super heavy is not the best option. So let’s whip up some easy pancakes, adding some cream cheese and festive vegetables to make them look like baubles! The recipe I give here for pancakes veers a bit more toward the crepe side, but don’t feel limited to that! A ready-mix is an option as well, or make the recipe completely savory by using soft tortilla shells, or lavaş, the soft Turkish flatbread. Cut them into smaller circles if needed and make it more fun. Leftovers can and should be used while making the bauble pancakes if you decide to give this a try.
