Ingredients
- FOR THE PANCAKES:
- ¾ cups Greek Yogurt
- ½ cups Egg Whites
- ½ teaspoons Vanilla Extract
- ¼ cups Whole Wheat Pastry Flour
- ¼ cups Pillsbury Funfetti Cake Mix (Or Any Cake Mix You Like)
- ½ teaspoons Baking Soda
- ½ teaspoons Sugar
- 1 dash Salt
- 2 Tablespoons Sprinkles
- FOR THE GLAZE:
- 2 Tablespoons Powdered Sugar
- ¼ teaspoons Vanilla Extract
- 1 teaspoon Water Or Milk
- OPTIONAL TOPPINGS:
- Sprinkles And Whipped Cream
Preparation
Mix together the yogurt, egg whites and vanilla extract in a small bowl
In a separate medium sized bowl combine all of the remaining pancake ingredients (except the candy sprinkles). Add in the yogurt mixture and whisk till evenly mixed
Spray your non-stick skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium heat. I spray the pan between every batch.
Place 1/4-cup of batter onto the non-stick skillet, add some sprinkles on top of the batter and cook till bubbles start appearing through the top of the pancake. I flattened out the batter with a spatula to cook more evenly. Then flip the pancake and cook until nicely browned on the other side. About 2 minutes on each side. Remove the finished pancakes from the skillet onto a plate and repeat with the remaining batter.
Make glaze: Add powdered sugar, vanilla extract and water or milk into a small bowl and mix until a slightly drippy consistency. NOTE: You do not need a lot of the glaze.
Evenly pour glaze over top of pancakes, add more sprinkles, whipped cream and a candle! Happy Birthday!
