To start off these Christmas recipe ideas for kids, let's make a festive pizza that looks like a Christmas tree! Preheat the oven to 400°F and place the pizza crust on a baking sheet. Spread the marinara sauce evenly over the crust, leaving a small border around the edge. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese on top. Now comes the fun part – decorating the tree! Let your kids get creative by adding the chopped peppers, cherry tomatoes, olives, mushrooms, pineapple, and ham in different patterns to resemble a Christmas tree. Bake for 12-15 minutes until the cheese is melted and the crust is golden brown. Slice into triangles and enjoy!
Who says pancakes are just for breakfast? These reindeer pancakes make a fun and festive snack or dessert for the holiday season. In a bowl, mix together the pancake mix, milk, and egg until smooth. Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and pour the batter into small circles. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side. Once cooked, use the chocolate chips to make the reindeer's eyes and nose, and the strawberries for the antlers. Add a dollop of whipped cream for the nose and enjoy your adorable and delicious reindeer pancakes!
These are just a few Christmas recipe ideas for kids that are easy, fun, and sure to bring some holiday cheer into your kitchen. Get your little ones involved in the cooking process and make unforgettable memories this Christmas season. Happy cooking and happy holidays!
