Cake Batter Funfetti Pancakes: Fluffy melt in your mouth pancakes topped with a sweetened whipped cream. Now you can enjoy the flavor of cake: for breakfast!

Love pancakes? Also try my cinnamon roll pancakes recipe.

Admit it!

You’ve thought about eating that slice of cake for breakfast. Or if you’re me you actually ate it.

These cake batter pancakes give you that authentic birthday cake flavor in fluffy pancake form. They’re made with cake mix, sprinkles, and vanilla.

I topped mine off with lightly sweetened whipped cream. If you were feeling super naughty you could even use a bit of glaze! (Milk + Powdered sugar)

Best of all these cake batter funfetti pancakes are made without any special equipment. I made them in a regular old frying pan and mixed them using a whisk. I also whipped my cream by hand. The secret is using an ice cold bowl/whisk.
