Ahh, waking up to a full house of family! A dream (for some ?). I remember when I just moved to the US when I was 20, holidays time was the loneliest time ever. The streets were empty, the driveways crowded with cars, stores closed, and my family was so so far away (in Belarus). I honestly get chills when I think of that time. Now it’s different for me. I feel lucky and blessed.
Whether you are alone or not this holiday week, I hope you will treat yourself to some rest and fun. And maybe your mornings can be filled with some yummy things. Forget healthy. Now is the time to be naughty. Go ahead and pour that Nutella all over your pancakes and make some bacon on the side (my husband is scratching his head wondering where his bacon is ?).
I thought I’d give you an idea for some unusual but very yummy pancakes. They are healthy so please spoil them with some toppings of your choice. ?
I used the corn flour mix from the muffins I made last week. The muffins turned out a touch dry but you certainly can’t say that about these pancakes. I hope you enjoy them.
- ½ cup cornmeal
- ½ cup whole wheat flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ¼ tsp baking soda
- ¼ tsp salt
- .
- 1 grated apple with skin
- 1 tbsp of maple syrup
- 1 cup of yogurt (I used Greek 2% but any will work)
- 1 egg
- Mix the dry ingredients first.
- In a separate bowl whisk all the wet ingredients together. Now fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix until combined but don't over mix.
- Use a large spoon to drop pancakes onto the pan heated with coconut oil. Pan fry for 2-3 minutes on each side.
