To prepare the batter…

1. In a medium mixing bowl, mix all ingredients together until it becomes smooth and has no lump.

2. Pour the batter in a zip bag.  Sqeeze the batter to a corn of the bag.  Tie up the top.  Trim a tiny hole off the corner as a pastry bag.






3. Grease a frying pan with half teaspoon of vegetable oil over medium heat.




4. When the pan is hot enough, "draw" an outline of a turtle body with the batter.  Cook it for 10 seconds.






5. Fill in the rest of the body part and cook for another 1 minute.  When the pancake is firmed enough, flip it over and cook for another 1 minute.








6.  With the same tecnique in step 2, "draw" an outline of a turtle shell.






7. Last, make some mini pancakes for the turtle feet and the turtle head with the rest of the batter.





8. To assemble the turtle, place a mini pancake on each foot and the head.  Place about 3 pancakes in the centre.  Then, place the shell on top.  Serve with maple syrup.
