Yesterday I had ice cream sandwiches for breakfast.
Take that, cold cereal.
And of course, in following the “healthy dessert” theme of this blog, the above ice cream pancakes are much healthier than they look. So please feel free to eat them for breakfast. Or lunch. Or dinner. Or, um, all three.
Ice Cream Sandwich Pancakes
Adapted from: Brownie Batter Pancakes
- 1/4 cup spelt or all-purpose flour
- 1/4 tsp baking powder
- 1 tbsp Hershey’s Special Dark cocoa or dutch cocoa -(You can try substituting regular cocoa, but I have not tried)
- pinch uncut stevia OR 1 1/2 tbsp sugar
- 1/16 tsp salt
- 1 1/2 tbsp oil (or applesauce, only if you like the taste/texture of fat-free pancakes)
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 5 and 1/2 tbsp milk of choice
Mix dry ingredients very well, then add wet. Make pancakes! Then spread your favorite ice cream, mashed banana, or my egg-free healthy ice cream recipe in between the pancakes. For a truly-authentic look, you can even poke holes in the ice cream sandwich pancakes.

Could you make these whoopie pies???? Since finding out i have a wheat allergy i have really missed them. What would you use for the filling if you wanted to try it. HELP!!!

I made these and it was the most fun I had eating breakfast or any other meal for that matter in a long time! Next time I won’t refrigerate the batter as it got hard afterwards that’s why it’s so crumbly but tell the truth that was the best part! Thanks CCK!

As a kid I loved ice cream sandwiches. After many years without, I bought one and was so disappointed. It may have been the “ice milk” instead of ice cream or the fact that I had cleaned up my diet, but I have never tried again. I like using spelt flour. Now I just need to find something for the filling.
I have pinned your list of desserts for one. I assume that mug cakes require a microwave, which I do not have. Do you have an alternate method? (I apologize if that makes me seem too lazy to check for myself.)

This one does not require a microwave. Pretty sure none of her mug cake recipes do. https://chocolatecoveredkatie.com/2011/11/06/one-minute-chocolate-cake/
