Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

1/2 cup flour
1/2 cup dry yellow boxed cake mix
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup buttermilk
1 egg, beaten
2 Tbsp vegetable oil
1/2 tsp vanilla
1/4 cup sprinkles, plus more for garnish
1 cup powdered sugar
6 Tbsp heavy cream

Steps:

Heat large skillet or griddle over medium-low heat. I find medium low is best for pancakes so they don't brown too fast and cook well enough to flip them!
In a medium bowl whisk together the flour, cake mix, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
In a separate bowl whisk together buttermilk, egg, vegetable oil and vanilla.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until combined, but slightly lumpy. Gently stir 1/4 cup sprinkles into batter.
Spray skillet with non-stick spray and place 1/4 cup batter in the pan. Cook for 3-4 minutes and then flip. Cook for another 2 minutes until set.

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 15

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg or more to taste (optional)
1 1/2 cups buttermilk
2 eggs
3 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted and cooled slightly)
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
2 tablespoons multi-colored jimmies-type sprinkles
For topping
Whipped cream
Additional sprinkles
Butter & maple syrup

Steps:

In a large bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, salt, and nutmeg if using.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, eggs, butter, and vanilla.
Pour the wet ingredients over the dry ingredients and whisk just until incorporated.
Stir in the sprinkles.
Heat a non-stick griddle to 325 degrees, or place a large non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Add a little butter, if desired. Scoop pancake batter by the scant 1/2 cup full onto griddle or pan.
Cook until the pancakes begin to look a little dry around the edges and start to form bubbles, about 1 - 2 minutes. Flip and cook for another minute or so until golden brown on both sides and cooked through.
Top with whipping cream, sprinkles, and a birthday candle. Serve with butter and maple syrup.

Tips:

To make the pancakes extra fluffy, separate the egg yolks and whites and beat the whites until stiff peaks form before folding them into the batter.
For a more intense confetti color, use a combination of rainbow sprinkles and edible glitter.
If you don't have a griddle, you can cook the pancakes in a large skillet over medium heat.
Serve the pancakes with your favorite toppings, such as butter, syrup, whipped cream, or fruit.

Conclusion:

Funfetti birthday pancakes are a delicious and festive way to celebrate a birthday or any special occasion. They are easy to make and can be customized with your favorite toppings.
