1 Prepare the Ingredients
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Prepare a baking sheet with foil. Rinse and roughly chop the carrot shreds. Remove the cream cheese from the refrigerator and allow to come to room temperature for the frosting step.
-
2 Make the Pancake Batter
In a mixing bowl, combine the pancake mix, 1 cup water, cinnamon, chopped carrots, and nutmeg. Mix well.
-
3 Cook the Pancakes
Heat a medium pan over low to medium heat. Place ½ tsp. olive oil in the pan. Pour 1/4 cup of pancake batter in the center of the pan, turning pan to let it spread out a bit. Cook on each side for about 3 minutes or until browned and the pancakes are firm in the middle. Set aside on a plate, adding another ½ tsp. oil after each pancake. Repeat until you have used all the batter.
-
4 Cook the Bacon
Place the bacon on baking sheet prepared with foil. Bake for 12-16 minutes or until bacon is golden brown and crispy. Remove from pan and place on a paper towel-lined plate to soak up excess drippings.
-
5 Make the Cream Cheese Frosting
In a mixing bowl vigorously whisk the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar. Once combined, use about 2 Tbsp. water to thin (if needed), adding slowly so it doesn't separate.
-
6 Plate the Dish
Place a stack of pancakes in the middle of the plate. Lay bacon next to the pancakes. Top with cream cheese frosting, chopped walnuts, and syrup.
