Happy New Year everyone! This morning I woke up hungry and decided to whip up something hearty, but also celebratory-pancakes! I confess, I typically do not think of pancakes as being “stick to your ribs” type of food. Usually, they are too sweet, overly refined and spike the blood sugar with a hard crash shortly after eating. This time, I decided to make a “real food” version to last me through my morning workout.
Ingredients:
1 cup whole wheat flour
2 tsp baking soda
1 egg
1/2 cup vanilla almond milk
1/4 cup water
1/4 cup pumpkin puree
dash salt, cinnamon, vanilla extract
Directions: Combine all ingredients (add more liquid if batter too thick) and cook on a hot griddle or on the stovetop in a large skillet/pan. Serve hot with maple syrup, nut butter, or whatever you like. I served mine up with almond butter and chocolate chips like so.
