parents came to visit during mothers day, so for breakfast I made us some healthy whole wheat apple pancakes! they were really fluffy and yummy. i used fuji apples because thats what i had in my fridge, but they were too sweet i think and the apple flavor was lost in the pancake. so i recommend choosing a more tart apple, maybe a jonah or honeycrisp when they come back in season.... mmmmm i cant wait for honeycrisp season!since i didnt have any syrup, i looked up an online recipe to make my own, which turned out surprisingly tasty. I did tweak a bit by adding some cinnamon and didn't have maple flavoring so i used vanilla extract. it continually amazes me the things that i always thought i had to buy in the store, that you can make from everyday items in your pantry.
mm... this sounds SO AMAZING! what i'd do for someone to make me pancakes right now.... SADFACE. i only cook twice a week now and it's usually some sort of aesthetically unpleasing stirfry plus pasta. i will be looking forward to the day when i can host big dinner parties and make tasty, beautiful things again.
ReplyDeleteapplesauce & yogurt might work well in pancake batter too. I like this concept.
