Funfetti Pancakes

INGREDIENTS

• 1 1/3 cups flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 box Pillsbury Funfetti cake mix
• 1/4 cup vegetable oil, coconut oil, or melted butter (if doing waffles, use 1/3 cup oil!)
• 3 eggs
• 2 1/2 cups milk
• Extra rainbow sprinkles, optional for topping or making them extra colorful!

METHOD

1. In a large bowl, combine all ingredients except for the sprinkles. Mix with a whisk until just combined.
2. Gently fold in the sprinkles. (Note: if you're making pancakes and want them a bit thinner, add a little more milk until the batter reaches your desired consistency)
3. Heat stovetop or griddle to medium-low heat and spray with nonstick spray. Spoon the batter onto the hot pan and cook until bubbles start forming, about 1-2 minutes. Flip the pancake and cook the other side for an additional 1-2 minutes or until cooked through. If making waffles, heat waffle iron and spray with nonstick spray or prep with melted butter. Cook until golden brown, about 3-5 minutes.

Buttercream Frosting Syrup

INGREDIENTS

• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 2 tablespoons half and half
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/2 teaspoon salt

METHOD

1. Add butter to a small saucepan and melt over low heat.
2. Once melted, add in the powdered sugar, salt, and half and half. Use a whisk to fully combine until no lumps are left.
3. Take off the heat and add vanilla extract. Stir until combined.
