Sunday was Gavin’s 5th Birthday and we had such a great day! We start birthday’s around here with birthday cupcake pancakes! What are cupcake pancakes? Well, pancakes made from cupcake mix! Yes, they aren’t the most healthy choice but twice a year won’t harm anyone and the kids look forward to it. Plus, you start your day with a wish what’s better then that as a kid?
It’s super simple. I start with Funfetti Cupcake mix and make as directed.
It has sprinkles in the mix which is perfect for birthday’s!
I make small pancakes because these don’t cook like regular pancakes. They take awhile and you have to cook them at a low heat like 250. They aren’t the easiest to flip either so big ones would be difficult.
For the frosting you just mix water and powdered sugar and have it a little runny.
Drizzle it over the pancakes and it dries quickly like glaze on a krispie kreme donut. It’s so yummy. Add a candle and you’ve got yourself some yummy birthday pancakes!

That is such a great idea! I love it! We just do normal pancakes with whatever treats I can find (this year I used M&M’s to make smiley faces!). I think these cupcake pancakes would be a big hit at our house though!
what a neat idea for a special breakfast! Happy Birthday Gavin!
SO making those for my son’s 2nd next month! 🙂
Oh wow!! I bet he just LOVED it! Happy bday gavin!
They look delicious! So did he get cake later in the day too? lol I’ve done funfetti cookies for my daughter’s birthday before instead of making cupcakes with the mix, but never pancakes.
Oh how fun! I bet it was a huge hit!
How fun! I’ll bet they tasted soooooo good!
