Puree Pancakes



This is an awesome pancakes-from-scratch recipe compliments of a VERY experienced mom and stolen from my trusty Moms Group Cookbook. The original recipe calls for pumpkin puree, but the recipe works great with all kinds of options. I've tried adding my son's babyfood which includes any combination of apple, squash, sweet potatoes, spinach, and banana. I've also tried using just mashed up bananas and that worked great, too!!

Important Note: This recipe makes a LARGE batch, 20-30 pancakes depending on how big you make them. I make the whole batch and freeze the extra for quick, weekday breakfasts.

Puree Pancakes

Wet Ingredients:

-2 c puree
-4 c milk
-1/4 c honey
-1/4 c oil (coconut, olive or butter works, too)
-2 eggs

Dry Ingredients:
-4 c whole wheat flour
-1 Tbs baking powder
-1 Tbs cinnamon
-1 tsp baking soda
-1 tsp salt
-1 c chocolate chips (optional)

1. Mix wet ingredients together in a mixer. Mix dry ingredients in a separate bowl.
2. Add dry ingredients to wet, stirring slowly.
3. Heat griddle to 350. Pour batter and "bake" until bubbles start to form, then flip and "bake" until cooked through.
