Pancakes for One

24-Carrot Cake Pancakes

(Makes 1-2 servings)

All you have to do is mix the dry ingredients for 24-Carrot Cake Cupcakes. This can be done days in advance if you wish. Divide the mix into 4 equal servings. In one of those servings, add 1/4 tsp vanilla extract, level 2 tbsp applesauce , and 1/4 cup shredded carrot.  Then add 4-6 tbsp liquid to the mix and stir.

The best part?  You still have three more servings with which you can make cupcakes, pizza, bread, or… more pancakes!

Of course, there’s coconut butter.

And then there’s also: Maple syrup, agave, Soyatoo & jam, raisins & apples, vanilla icing, pineapple juice, strawberries and tofutti cream cheese… I could go on and on.

    OMG Carrot Cake = dessert love of my life, just behind ice cream. Thank you for coming up with cake-alternatives that are still carrot cake flavored. 🙂

    And in a twist of irony, I was just catching up on your last couple posts about stressing out about not commenting as much as you’d like…and here I am like 5 posts later just now commenting on that! Suffice it to say I hear ya, and my blog doesn’t get half the hits yours does, so I can only imagine the pressure you feel to return comments! Please, it should be the last thing you worry about. but I’m sure everyone else has echoed that thought!

    Just go have a fun “real” life. 🙂

    Katie, these pancakes look amazing!!! I have to say though that good old carrot cake in its original form will always be my favorite – and the only way I like cake pretty much 🙂

  3. Lexi says:

    I love carrot cake! Your pancakes look amazing.

    Favorite form of CC: the real thing, actual cake, with cream cheese frosting, or a carrot cake muffin!

  4. Susan says:

    Katie all your recipes always make me drool!! I love your pictures.

    Unfort, I lack many of the ingredients and equipment to make your amazing concoctions while I’m at school, so I guess I’ll have to wait and indulge when I go home on breaksie!

    oh those pancakes look and sound delish! I do like carrot cake but don’t make it often…don’t know why. I should!

    and I would have to agree that using chopsticks makes eating just plain FUN!
