How to Make Heart Healthy Harvest Pancakes

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, melted coconut oil, maple syrup, and mashed butternut squash (or pumpkin puree).
  3. Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix.
  4. Preheat a lightly oiled griddle or large skillet over medium-high heat. (If using a non-stick surface, you may not need oil.)
  5. Pour ¼ cup of batter onto the hot griddle for each pancake.
  6. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  7. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings! We recommend pure maple syrup or warm cinnamon applesauce for a healthy twist.
