Supplies

  • Mixing bowls
  • Whisk
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Non-stick skillet or griddle
  • Spatula

Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup cake mix (vanilla or Funfetti)
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/2 cup rainbow sprinkles
  • Whipped cream, for topping

Instructions

  1. Prepare Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cake mix, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  2. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, vanilla extract, and melted butter until well combined.
  3. Mix Batter: Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
  4. Add Sprinkles: Fold in the rainbow sprinkles, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
  5. Heat Skillet: Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or non-stick cooking spray.
  6. Cook Pancakes: Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges start to look set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown.
  7. Serve: Stack the pancakes on a plate, and top with a generous amount of whipped cream. Add extra sprinkles on top if desired.
