Healthy Pumpkin Pancakes
Since Eden started eating solid foods I developed a new found love for pumpkin puree. She loved eating it straight from the can and it provided her with great nutrients while cost less than traditional baby food. I had almost forgotten what a wonderful, useful thing it can be, not just for babies, but for adults as well. There are so many
So I started experimenting with pumpkin in my pancakes and was inspired to make pumpkin pancakes as healthy as I could without sacrificing any flavor. The result is the recipe for healthy pumpkin pancakes below. These pancakes are moist and flavorful and Eden devours them joyfully. They are fantastic with a little bit of whipped cream and powdered sugar, though to lose some of the best benefits by sugaring it up, but you have to have a little fun every now and then right?
Ingredients:
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1 Cup Almond Meal
1/2 cup rolled oats (old fashioned)
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon cinnamon
Pinch ground nutmeg
Pinch ground ginger
