Who said you can’t have cookies for breakfast?

December 18, 2011 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 13 Comments

Good morning!

I’m writing this on Saturday afternoon because I have the Christmas party tonight and you know I will not be feeling up to blogging this evening.  I did get my hair styled today and let me tell you I look like a country singer from the 80’s.  lol  She made my hair BIG and curly.  I hope it dies down a bit before the evening.

So for breakfast this Saturday I thought I would try something a little different, and making a healthy sweet treat.  Yes you can have a healthy sweet treat in one. Wait till you see it, it’s so pretty, fluffy, light and I made it Christmasy!  Is Christmasy a word?  It is now!  🙂   I decided to take one of my favorite cookies and turn it into a wonderful pancake!  What cookie am I talking about?  Nope, not chocolate chip, but a Snickerdoodle!  Ahhh, cinnamon and sugar yum, yum!

Mmmmm, this is so gooooooood!!!  I adapted my Whole Wheat Yogurt Pancakes recipe to make this Snickerdoodle one.  Does it taste like a Snickerdoodle?  I’d say yes, just a light and fluffy one.  If you like cinnamon, you’ll love these pancakes!  I made these for my Step-daughter and I, and I had to ask what did you think?   She said with a mouth full of pancake,  hhfusgjdefhjeuf good!  Huh?  What did she say?  Thats why you should not talk with your mouth full!   Needless to say, she loved them!  I’m pretty proud of these pancakes.


Your probably thinking, this can not be healthy!  Your wrong, with out the syrup 4, yes 4 of these pancakes come in at at just 200 calories!!!  These aren’t tiny you know!  Check out the little sugar sprinkles on top.

I know, how close of a picture did I take?  Hey have you noticed the past couple of days, my photos aren’t so yellow (except the pancakes and the syrup do have a brown yellow tone, so thats normal)?  My Husband finally put in new light bulbs, and dam there bright! There practically neon white!  But I’m glad, everything looks better.  Now if I get that camera I asked for, I’ll be one happy camper, crossing fingers and toes!!

Here’s a pic of the inside, my first bite of this sweet delectable pancake!

I also made syrup, but I didn’t go the wholesome route that I like to take, I used Sugar free Mrs. Butterworths Maple Syrup.  I added 1 teaspoon of Brumble and Brown Butter and Cinnamon.  Microwaved it for about 60 seconds total time.  The syrup just made the pancakes a little more Snickerdoodle like.  I know real Maple Syrup would be best, but I’m trying to watch the calories,since I have that party tonight and I have been making Peanut Butter and Granola all morning and you know I’ve been snacking on that stuff!  I made 8 jar of PB!  Insane and two batches of a new granola!  I’m debating if I should share with you now or later.  It so good, I think it matches or even tops my Perfect Granola!  I didn’t think that was possible!  Yes, it’s just that good!

Ahhh, light and fluffy, like a good pillow pancake!!  If you haven’t tried any of my Whole Wheat Yogurt Pancakes, you don’t know what your missing.  Try them!  It sounds weird having yogurt in a pancake, but I promise you won’t even notice!  There healthy, good and so easy to make.  I never tried it, but I bet greek vanilla yogurt would be the bomb in these pancakes.  I’m going to try that sometime soon, I already have an idea in my head.  I’m so food minded!

Ready for the recipe? Ok, one more picture then the recipe!  Plus the calories!!

Snickerdoodle Whole Wheat Yogurt Pancakes

Ingredients:

3/4-cup Plain Non-fat Greek Yogurt

1/2-cup Egg Whites (I used the stuff in the carton)

1/2-cup Whole-Wheat Pastry Flour

1/2-tsp Baking Soda

1/2-tsp Vanilla Extract

1 tbsp Sugar

1/2 tbsp  Cinnamon

Dash of Salt

For Syrup:

1/2 Cup Mrs. Butterworths Sugar Free Maple Syrup or real Maple Syrup

1 tsp Butter (I used Brumble and Brown)

1/4 tsp. Ground Cinnamon

Directions:

1.) Mix Greek Yogurt, Egg Whites & Vanilla Extract into a small bowl

2.) In a separate bowl combine Flour, Baking Soda, Sugar, Cinnamon & Salt

3.) Combine and whisk till evenly mixed

4.) Place 1/4-cup batter onto non-stick skillet sprayed with cooking spray and cook till bubbles start appearing through the top of the pancake and then flip.  About 1-2 minutes on each side

NOTE: Cook on medium heat and I flattened out my batter with the spatula to cook more evenly. I also sprayed the pan with cooking spray in between batches, so the skillet was always greased a bit. We don’t want stuck pancakes!

5.) In a microwave safe bowl, add maple syrup, cinnamon and butter. Microwave in 25 second intervals, stirring in between, until syrup is warm and butter is melted.

6.) Pour syrup over pancakes and top with Christmas sprinkles (sprinkles are optional, but pretty)

Enjoy! (and you will)

Makes 8 pancakes total

Serves two

Calorie per serving including syrup (4 pancakes):  226,  Fat:  1,  Cholesterol:  0,  Sodium:  541 (thats the syrup),  Potassium:  165,  Carbs:  41,  Fiber:  5,  Sugar:   14,  Protein:  16

Pancakes without Syrup:  Calories:  203,  Fat:  .7,  Sodium:  396,  Potassium:  165,  Carbs:  33,  Fiber:  5,  Sugar:  6.5,   Protein:  16  (we only used 1/4 cup of the syrup between the both of us, I’m saving the rest to put on oatmeal or even in my yogurt)

I am off to tame the hair down, and I’m going to try to get a batch of cookies done.  They are for Joanne from Eats Well with Others, she tempted me to make cookies or something with that dam Cookie Butter from Trader Joe’s!  So those will be for you my dear! 🙂

Have a great Sunday!!!

    These look delicious! You have basically put all of my favorite things together in a clean recipe (I will use evaporated cane juice instead of white sugar)! I’m so excited to try these! I have Chobani vanilla greek yogurt in the fridge, Chobani pinned this on pinterest so thanks again!

      Thanks Alicia! I’ve always wondered what is evaporated can juice? Where do you buy it? Is it better for you then sugar? Sorry for all the questions. If you make the pancakes let me know what you think! I didn’t know Chobani pinned this, awesome! Yah!!

        It is better for you because it isn’t refined like white sugar. But it is just organic sugar, it will list it in the ingredients as evaporated cane juice. I can get it at any of the stores in my little town. The pancakes were super good, my 5 year old daughter said “best pancakes ever”. My only question is how did you end up with 8 pancakes? I had to thin out the batter to get 6. Maybe I will do scant 1/4 cups next time. They just didn’t puff up like the first round. I will definitely be making them again though!

          Sorry you only got 6 pancakes, huh, maybe I did use a scant less then a 1/4 cup, but I do try to fill it up. I’m glad your daughter liked them, my teen liked them too!

          Thanks for the info on the sugar. I bought a bag of organic sugar from Trader Joe’s, I’m going to see what the ingredients are.

☀️🌸☀️WELCOME to the FLOWER LOVIN' FRIE ☀️🌸☀️WELCOME to the FLOWER  LOVIN' FRIENDS DECOR TOUR! 
M🌸Y every flower lift your spirits!

I am sharing with you my Everblooming Hydrangea. This is a full sun hydrangea. I planted it last year and it did so crappy. I was shocked to see so many flowers on it. We have had a relatively cool Spring, so it’s been happy. Today it got hot out and I just went out to look at the hydrangea and it’s shriveling. So I need to capture this moment before it poops out this summer.

We are a fabulous group of friends sharing their love of flowers and elements of nature inside and outside our homes throughout the seasons!

Happy Wednesday! We are half way through the week. Happy Wednesday! We are half way through the week. I can’t believe that this weekend is Mothers Day. It just seems early this year. I am not sure what are plans are going to be this weekend?
🌷
I am sharing with you the @krumpetshomedecor deal of the week. It’s a set of two mango wood trays with a beautiful rope handle.
🌷
The bigger tray I used to make a tulip arrangement. It’s such a great size. The last photo is also how I used the tray on my bed. The smaller tray is perfect for holding my olive oils in my kitchen. These trays will fit in about  any space. I just love them.

Happy Tuesday! Boy allergy season has hit me hard. Happy Tuesday! Boy allergy season has hit me hard. I have been sneezing like crazy and then my nose runs. Ugh! I never have allergies. It must be all the crazy weather. We’ve had high winds since last Tuesday and temps in the 70’s. Tomorrow mid 90’s, then back to the 70’s. No wonders my allergies are acting up.
🌸
I’ve been adding a little decor to my patio area. I love adding pillows and blankets for pops of color and to give a cozy feel. One of my newest additions is my new Verdure Wooden Candle Lantern that I got from @icosiest_furniture. It adds a romantic ambience in the evening.
🌸
The lantern is made from Fir wood and has a beautiful jute handle. The lantern can be hung or placed on a table. The candle is battery operated and looks so beautiful flickering in the evening. Swipe the photo to see it.
🌸
I love the style of the lantern and it would also look fabulous styled indoors. I can see the lantern on a shelf, centerpiece or on a console table. 
🌸
For a closeup of the lantern, check out my highlight. COSIEST was kind enough to give my followers a 15% off anything in there store: Jennifer15. The link is in my bio.

Do you have allergies? If so, are they bad for you this year?

Happy Monday! Hope you had a nice weekend. We had Happy Monday! Hope you had a nice weekend. We had such beautiful weather. It was in the 70’s and sunny. I did a lot of work outside. Got some plants planted and rearranged my patio because I was #gifted a new dining set from @alphamartsus 
🌷
I am so excited to have an outdoor dining set. It’s going to be so fun to eat dinner outside, in front of my zinnia garden and water fountain. I’m so excited, you have no idea. 
🌷
The dining set is the PHI VILLA Rattan Dining Chairs Set with Extendable Table Patio Dining Set. The set I have is the 9 piece, but they also have a 7 piece set. You have your choice of chairs, cushioned or high back. I like the high back. The chair gives great support and is so comfortable to sit on.
🌷
The table is made of high quality metal with a special powder coating that will with stand the outside elements. The table is 60” long but can be extended to 83”. It’s so easy to extend the table. The leaf is built in and just flips to make the table longer or shorter. Swipe to see the leaf and how long the table is extended. The first few pictures, the table is extended to 60”. 
🌷
For more information on the dining set, check out my highlight. The link for Alpha Mart is in my bio.
🌷
Do you like to entertain outside?

Happy Earth Day! I would share my garden today, bu Happy Earth Day! I would share my garden today, but the weather has been awful this week. We’ve had heavy rains, high winds and it was a chilly week. They even had tornado warnings north of us. So crazy.
💙
This week I took advantage of the crappy weather and gave my kitchen a good cleaning. I wiped down all the cabinets, washed the floor and cleared my counter of clutter. Now only if it would stay this clean.
💙
You can swipe and see what our kitchen looked like before. It was so small, now it’s the biggest room. I’m so happy with how it turned out. We did it all ourselves, accept installing the countertops.

What are your plans for the weekend?
