Time 35m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (21.4 ounce) box carrot cake mix (with carrots and raisins packet)
1 ¼ cups hot water
¼ cup vegetable oil
2 eggs
⅓ cup chopped pecans
⅓ cup all-purpose flour, or more as needed
2 tablespoons butter, melted
2 cups cream cheese frosting
¼ cup grated carrots
¼ cup toasted chopped pecans

Steps:

  • Stir carrots and raisins packet and hot water together in a bowl.
  • Stir carrot cake mix, vegetable oil, and eggs together in a bowl until batter is well-combined. Stir carrot-raisin-hot water mixture into batter. Add 1/3 cup chopped pecans to batter; stir in enough flour to reach a pancake-batter consistency.
  • Heat a griddle over medium-high heat and brush with melted butter. Drop batter by 1/3 cupfuls onto griddle and cook until bubbles form and the edges are dry, 3 to 5 minutes. Flip and cook until browned on the other side, 2 to 3 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter. Transfer pancakes to a wire rack to cool.
  • Place 1 pancake on a plate and top with a layer of cream cheese frosting. Place another pancake on top of the frosting and top with another layer of cream cheese frosting. Top with a final pancake and garnish with 1/4 of the shredded carrot and 1/4 of the toasted pecans. Repeat with remaining pancakes, frosting, carrots, and pecans to create 3 more cakes.

I always try to make meals as "healthy" as possible for my 1 and a half year old daughter. So, for breakfasts I've played around with ideas for pancakes. I decided to be adventurous and add carrots. Your first reaction might be "gross!" But it actually tastes rather good. My daughter loves them and eats them up.

Tips:

  • Choose the right carrots. Fresh, firm carrots with a deep orange color will yield the best flavor.
  • Grate the carrots finely. This will help them distribute evenly throughout the pancakes and ensure that they cook evenly.
  • Use a light hand when mixing the batter. Overmixing can result in tough pancakes.
  • Cook the pancakes over medium heat. This will help them cook evenly without burning.
  • Serve the pancakes immediately. They are best when fresh and hot.
