In a medium mixing bowl, mix the dry ingredients - flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Mix with a whisk until completely combined.
Add the milk, oil, egg and vanilla to the dry ingredients and whisk together until smooth. Lastly, fold in the vanilla and sprinkles.
On a hot, greased griddle, ladle on the batter into 4" pancakes. Once the cakes begin to bubble, its time to flip. Pancakes are done once each side is a golden brown.
Top with whipped cream and an upside down strawberry with a little whipped cream on the top to resemble a Santa hat.

Recipe Tips.

Make the pancakes about 4 to 5 inches wide so they fit nicely on the plate with the donut head.
Cook the bacon so it is bendable enough to fold into an “L” shape for the scarf.
Place the pancakes slightly overlapping so the snowman body holds together visually.
Set out the candies and chocolate chips in small bowls so kids can decorate their own snowmen.
Make-ahead tip: cook the pancakes and bacon ahead, then rewarm and assemble right before serving.

Store. Keep in a tightly closed Ziploc baggie in the fridge. To reheat, either microwave them, or pop them in the toaster.

Freeze. See How to Freeze Pancakes for directions.
