Birthday Pancakes

February 5, 2012 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 13 Comments

Happy Super Bowl Sunday!

Big plans for the day?  I’m just going do my normal Sunday routine which is, want to exercise, but don’t, watch Hungry Girl at 10 even though she is annoying & geeky, bake, cook and prep for the week.  Of course snacks for the Super Bowl and I’ll relax during the half time show, this year I heard it’s Madonna.  Should be interesting.  Are you watching the big game?  Any parties?

Saturday we celebrated Jenny’s birthday, even though it really isn’t until Tuesday.  We started off the morning with these.

Then we got pedicures, went to lunch at this wonderful bakery that has the best breads, desserts, soups and salads.  I was a good girl and had a fruit salad with grilled chicken.  They serve it with a side of the most soft raisin cinnamon bread.  It’s so good!  I haven’t tried making cinnamon raisin bread, but I may change that tomorrow!  I always forget how much I love that bread until I have it!


Then I came home and made special cupcakes, recipe will come later this week, and then we went to dinner to a Hibachi Grill.  I over did it, and over did it big time.  But I was good I only ate a couple bites of my fried rice.  They didn’t have brown rice, stinky, but they said it’s always requested so there getting it in, in a couple of weeks.  I also had hibachi vegetable, shrimp and chicken.  I want a Hibachi Grill in my kitchen, how fun would that be?   Oh Husband, you know what on want for Valentine’s day?  A kitchen makeover with a built-in Hibachi Grill.  Ok, I’m dreaming on that one!

I bet your wondering about these pancakes.  These were a fun SWEET birthday pancake. I’m not kidding their sweet, yet pretty low-calorie, shocking I know!  There is no need for syrup with them.  They really do taste like cake.  I made them with Funfetti Cake Mix and my traditional yogurt pancakes.

I only used a 1/4 cup of cake mix and I can’t believe how much they really taste like cake, I’m still shocked.  If you like sweet treats in the morning then these pancakes are for you.  I got 10 pancakes out of the whole batch!  That’s five pancakes each and guess what?  Only 220 calories for FIVE of them.  Unbelievable!  I have a feeling these will be a birthday tradition around here.  I wonder if someone would make them for my birthday?

Birthday Pancakes

Ingredients:

3/4 cup Greek Yogurt or a 6oz container (I used Chobani Yogurt)

1/2 cup Egg whites

1/4 cup whole wheat pastry flour

1/4 cup Pillsbury Funfetti Cake Mix (your favorite cake mix should work)

1/2 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp vanilla extract

1/2 tsp. sugar

Dash of Salt

Glaze:

2 tbsp. powdered sugar

1/4 tsp. vanilla extract

1 tsp. water or milk

Sprinkles

Cooking Spray

Optional Toppings:  More Sprinkles and Whip Cream

Directions:

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

In a separate bowl combine Flour, Cake Mix, Baking Soda, Sugar & Salt

Combine and whisk till evenly mixed

Spray your skillet with cooking spray.  I do this between every batch.

Place 1/4-cup batter onto non-stick skillet, add some sprinkles on top of the batter and cook till bubbles start appearing through the top of the pancake and then flip. NOTE: Cook on medium heat and I flattened out my batter with the spatula to cook more evenly.

About 2 minutes on each side

Make glaze add powdered sugar, vanilla extract and water and mix until a slightly drippy consistency.  NOTE:  You do not need a lot of the glaze.

Evenly pour glaze over top of pancakes, add more sprinkles, whip cream and a candle! Happy Birthday!

Makes 10 pancakes

Serving Size: 2 that’s 5 – 4″ pancakes each

Calories for 5 pancakes total:  220,  fat:  1.9,  Sodium:  508,  Potassium:  157,  Carbs:  35.8,  Fiber:  2.1,  Sugar:  16.7,  Protein:  15.1

I’m so excited to share with you the fun birthday cupcakes, but that will have to wait, I am so proud of them!!  🙂  I’m also really proud of these pancakes.  They are so tasty, light and fluffy with the taste of cake!   Mmmmmm cake!  I am totally making these again!!  I want to make them now and I am so full!!

I swear there isn’t enough days to make all the wonderful goodies I see from you and all the goodies I think of.  I swear if I keep up on blogging I am going to be as big as a house, but you know what?  I’m having fun!  First time in a long time that I know I am eating reasonably healthy and I can splurge once in a while.  I am just having so much fun creating.  I think I finally found something that I like to do and I love sharing it with you!!  I am also tickled pink to say that Saturday was my biggest view day yet, I am so proud and so happy!!  Thank you so much for stopping by my blog, leaving nice comments and being an inspiration.  I wouldn’t be doing this if it wasn’t for you!  Wow, I am mushy tonight!  🙂  So I just want to say THANK YOU!!!!!

Have a wonderful Sunday, enjoy the Super Bowl and if you’re not into it, make some fun appetizers anyway and relax enjoy your day!!  See you tomorrow!!!

    My birthday is in a few weeks and I fully intend on overdoing it. Big time.

    These pancakes seem like the perfect way to start the day! And I love even more that I could eat them on a normal day and not feel totally guilty about it.

Hi Everyone! Happy Wednesday! We are half way ther Hi Everyone! Happy Wednesday! We are half way there!  I’m counting down to the weekend. It’s supposed to hit near 70 degrees which is rare for this time of year.
💕
I’m sharing with you my little Valentines vignette that I put together. Since some of you said buying candy and displaying it was considered home decor, I used the Hostess Snow Balls that my husband bought.
💕
He said your using the Snow Balls I bought for Home Decor. I said yup! It’s pink and goes with my Valentines. Now I can’t eat them because I don’t want to lose my display. Lol
💕
I was so excited to get my happy mail from @thevintagehomestudio. The tea towel and candy bar was the perfect addition to my display. I love my tea towel so much. Give me all the hearts.
💕
I’m half way through my no buying home decor challenge. So far so good, but I will tell you now, I am going to buy some flowers when I hit up Trader Joe’s this week, I just have too. I heard they got a bunch of gorgeous tulips. I must have them. But I promise that I won’t go crazy.
💕
What are your plans for the weekend?

Hey, hey, hey happy Tuesday! The days are getting Hey, hey, hey happy Tuesday! The days are getting longer and Spring will be here before we know it. #sponsored I can’t wait! Spring is my favorite season!
🌸
I’m sharing with you my new Yuri 4 piece patio set that I got from RST Brands. I love the clean lines and it’s made with certified eucalyptus wood. Plus it is so comfortable to sit on.
🌸
The beautiful light blue cushions are covered in a durable olefin fabric that is weather resistant. Plus the cushions have zippers, so you can wash the cushion covers. That’s a big plus, considering Sampson loves to sit on furniture.
🌸
I can’t wait to decorate my Yuri 4 piece seating set with throws, pillows and of course plants. When the weather warms up, I’ll take you along with me when I decorate.
🌸
Are you looking forward to Spring?

Happy Monday! As usual the weekend flew by, but I’m happy that I got some things done. I’m really trying to do some purge and organize. Slowly moving at it, one day at a time.
💕
I’m sharing with you my Valentines Day tiered tray. If you notice, I finally got a new tiered tray.  Woohoo, the tiered tray is from @paperadpallet. I’m so happy to ditch my old white one. It was so crooked that I had to put a towel under to make it straight. I now finally have a straight tiered tray.
💕
I’ve been good and I still haven’t gone shopping, but after putting this tray together, I realize I don’t own any wooden hearts. I really would like some white and pink ones. I could do a diy, I don’t think that’s considered buying home decor?
💕
How was your weekend?

Hello Thursday! Hope your week is going well. So f Hello Thursday! Hope your week is going well. So far so good over here. I’ve been doing well not shopping. I had to have Target deliver groceries yesterday because I was afraid to go in that store. I have no control. 23 more days to go for my 30 day no buying home decor challenge.
🌿
I’m slowly working on refreshing my home after Christmas. I worked on this vignette in my living room. It’s really hard shopping my home. I grabbed stuff in just about every room to make this vignette.
🌿
I’m sticking with the whites and greens and added the blue vase to go with my pillow in the background. I added another faux fern, I didn’t realize how many I have floating around.
🌿
The pot the fern is in was a pot that my spider plant was in that I got from Trader Joe’s. I told you I really shopped around my home. But it’s kind of fun using things I already have.
🌿
Do you like shopping your own home?

Hello Wednesday! Half way through the first week b Hello Wednesday! Half way through the first week back, we can do it. I need to pump myself up. 😂 All in all it’s not to bad of a work week.
🌿
Last week I worked on changing my console table around. I wanted to keep it light and simple and of course add my greenery.
🌿
I just love adding pops of greenery, real or faux everywhere. Plants truly make me happy. The faux fern you see here is from Target. It’s part of the Studio McGee collection. I can’t get over how real it looks.
🌿
For ferns, I always have to get faux. I don’t have very good luck with real ones. It’s just to dry here. I have to water them everyday and if you miss a day, they die. So faux it will be.
🌿
What’s your favorite plant?

Hello and happy Tuesday! Not too much going on ove Hello and happy Tuesday! Not too much going on over here. Just trying to get back into the swing of things. I was so tired after work yesterday.
🌸
I’m slowly decorating my home for this season, though winter is hard for me. After Christmas, I love pastels and flowers. I think the winter season is a little more difficult to decorate because we don’t get snow. It’s hard to have flocked trees and sunshine.
🌸
I’m sharing with you my centerpiece on my dining room table. I just love it so much!  It’s kind of cozy and warm. Plus it has flowers! I’m still working on decorating the rest of the dining room. I hope to complete it by the weekend so I can share it with you.
🌸
How’s the weather where you live?

Monday again? Ugh! Back to work today. I have enjo Monday again? Ugh! Back to work today. I have enjoyed my two weeks off and boy it is going to be hard getting back in the swing of things. At least I can roll out of my bed and go straight to my computer.
💕
Notice something different in my bedroom? I have a new sign above my bed. It took two years and a lot of begging to get my husband to hang something above my bed. It did cost me a trip to Olive Garden. lol
💕
My new farmhouse sign is from @krumpetshomedecor. I love just it, and thought it was perfect for the bedroom. I find the words so beautiful. Swipe to see a close up.
💕
The sign is slightly white wash and the word “love” is raised lettering. Plus the sign is two sided. I’ll show you the other side in stories today.
💕
Today Krumpets Home Decor is launching there new Valentines decor and let me tell you it is gorgeous!! I saw some fun pieces for a tiered tray and more signs. So much to choose from.
💕
Be sure to check out Krumpets Home Decor. I have a 10% discount code, plus free shipping on $25 and more:  PBANDP
💕
What color do you like to use for Valentines? Pink or Red?

Happy Sunday! Not to much going on here. I finally Happy Sunday! Not to much going on here. I finally packed up my Christmas and slowly redecorating my house for winter/spring.
🌿
For some reason, when Christmas is over I feel the need to start to decorate for Spring. I just love the light, bright feeling.
🌿
My first post of the New Year has to be flowers. I’m sharing this pretty bouquet that I bought from Trader Joe’s.
🌿
Trader Joe’s has tulips already, which means peonies will be soon to follow. I can’t wait for flower season to come full bloom.
🌿
Are you going to be decorating for Valentine’s Day?

Happy New Years Eve! I can’t believe it’s the Happy New Years Eve! I can’t believe it’s the last day of the year and what a year it’s been. Though I’ve had some wonderful blessings this year.
🥂
I’m sharing with you my top 9 photos of 2020. Thank you so much for all your wonderful comments, likes and saves. I’ve had so much fun on IG this year. I’ve made so many new friends, I’ve been inspired by you and I feel like I have grown so much just by being here with you.
🥂
You don’t even know how much I appreciate each and everyone of you. You are truly inspiring.  I am looking so forward to seeing what is in store in 2021.
🥂
If you followed my stories yesterday, I am doing a 30 day challenge starting on January 1st. The challenge is not being able to buy any home decor. So if you are joining me, shop today. It’s the last day to shop.
🥂
I plan on shopping my home, and being creative with what I have. When lockdown started, I saved so much money, not being able to leave my home. I was so proud of myself. Plus, I can save some money for spring and Easter decor.
🥂
Let me know if you are joining me? I need a support system. Target did me in this week, and I must stay away.  Once I get the shopping bug, I can’t stop.
🥂
I’m taking the next couple of days off from IG to get my house organized. I will be on stories to show my progress. Happy New Years! Cheers to a wonderful 2021.
