Pancakes for dinner
Everyone in the house loves pancakes. Really, who doesn’t? I like to make them as nutritious as possible so I can serve them for dinner. Here’s my current favorite recipe. I don’t measure spices, though. Which makes life pretty exciting around the Hatch household at meal time.
2 cups flour
2 tsp baking powder
salt (not too much)
cinnamon (enough to make the dry ingredients a nice cinnamon-y color)
bran (optional)
zucchini or yellow squash shredded really fine (how much, you ask? ha ha ha.)
2 eggs (or two egg-sized globs of vanilla yogurt)
2 cups milk
Stir up the dry ingredients, then add the wet ingredients. Stir until just blended then let sit for a few minutes. The kids like syrup, but I prefer yummy homemade pear sauce. Super easy, too. Before starting the pancakes, just peel and chop some pears, toss them in a pot with some water and cinnamon, and simmer until the pancakes are all cooked. As Nate would say, delish.
This recipe is both sneaky and deceptively delicious. No one sue me.
