Typically I keep the sweets low in my family’s diet.
But it’s hard to deny the kids one sweet breakfast a week
especially as we always are eager for the weekend
which means more time with Daddy!
So we celebrate weekends and
what’s a good way to kickstart the last day of school for the week
but pancakes?
We use the Creamy Yogurt Pancakes from Delia Creates.
I don’t buy extra ingredients if I can make do with what I have.
So I use regular whole wheat flour,
whole flax seeds (don’t even grind them up),
whole rolled oats (gives a good chewy texture)
and if any sugar typically I leave it out
(unless my homemade yogurt is particularly tangy)
then I’ll use maple syrup.
It’s easy and fills you up without weighing you down!
What toppings do you like on your pancakes?
I always seem to put WAY too much butter on mine if I can’t find any yummy blueberries… So one extreme or the other. Haha… But I do LOVE me some blueberry pancakes!
Blueberry pancakes are my favorite!!
