It’s good to be back, and it’s a Friday! My tummy troubles seem to be better which is always a good thing.
Breakfast this morning had me thinking of Tina. Perhaps because it involved carrots n’ cake? 🙂 I followed this Cooking Light recipe for carrot cake pancakes.
A winner! I halved the recipe, so some of the spices were eyeballed, and skipped the canola oil, but they came out perfectly. I loved the spice flavor and I though the consistency was great.
The entire breakfast felt pretty darn fancy.
1 serving of carrot cake pancakes, topped with Smart Balance Light and a drizzle of maple syrup (that’s a side plate btw).
A mineola with the last of the blueberries.
And french pressed chocolate peppermint coffee with tons of skim milk.
I really want to start doing more homemade coffee, this really rounded out the meal.
Once the kitchen is all cleaned up – and there’s not much to do because I clean as I cook – I’m going to settle in with some reading.
Don’t forget, today’s the last day to enter my giveaway.

Chloe – Welcome!
O0o carrot cake pancakes! Doesn’t get any better than that 🙂
Beautiful breakfast!
I saw that recipe in Cooking Light and thought it sounded so delicious! Glad it turned out well.
those pancakes look awesome!
I love pancakes! So good 🙂
I always eat off of side plates, too…I can’t really imagine loading a dinner plate up with pancakes, however, I’m sure I could take care of them if I did. 🙂
Nothing better than cake for breakfast! 🙂

those pancakes look INCREDIBLE!
Ooooh that is sooo funny about the title of the post and neither of us actually ate carrot cake! I bet your pancakes tasted better than my smoothie 😉
