Hey there, and welcome back, friends.

You are in for a fun treat!

I hope you had a great weekend. Our winter was mild this weekend and we took advantage of it and spent some time outside. All the snow is gone and it was nice enough for a lazy walk and the kids running around. We made this funfetti buttermilk pancakes recipe for brunch on Sunday and they were a delightful treat for a lazy morning.

To be honest, I first made and took pictures of these pancakes a few weeks ago intending to share them with you before Valentine’s Day and National Pancake Day. But with the rebranding of the blog that was completed last week, I lost track of time and didn’t get to share them with you. Forgive me. However, nothing says we should only consume sprinkles when love is in the air. It’s always appropriate if you ask me.

Valentine’s Day may have passed but this is perfect breakfast for you and your special ones. These funfetti buttermilk pancakes are fluffy and perfect with colorful jimmies.

These pancakes start with my favorite Krusteaz buttermilk pancake mix. I actually used their Protein Complete Buttermilk Pancake Mix which has 13g of protein per serving. Adding in coconut milk along with the jimmies, added a fun twist to a family favorite. You can, of course, use regular milk. For the sprinkles, definitely, use jimmies as they will not bleed in your batter.

I topped ours with freshly whipped cream and more sprinkles. It was the perfect amount of sweet to finish off these pancakes. You can top yours off with syrup and add fresh fruits. These pancakes are very easy to make and versatile. My toddler loved adding the sprinkles to the batter and his pancakes afterward.

Ingredients

  • Krusteaz Protein Complete Buttermilk Pancake Mix
  • rainbow sprinkles
  • coconut milk
  • water
  • pure vanilla extract
  • whipped cream
  • toasted coconut flakes

How to Make Funfetti Pancakes

Heat a pancake griddle to medium heat and lightly grease the griddle.

In a large bowl, whisk together the pancake mix, sprinkles, coconut milk water, and vanilla extract. Do not over-mix but mix until combined.

Let the batter stand for at least 2 minutes. Spoon about 1/4 cup batter per pancake onto the griddle.

Cook for a few minutes per side. For light and fluffy pancakes, flip only once, when the tops bubble and bottoms are golden browns.

Top each pancake with whipped cream, sprinkles, and coconut flakes.

How to Store

You can store leftover pancakes in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. You can reheat the leftover pancakes in the oven or on the griddle until heated through.
