My son loves pancakes and would eat them every morning if he could. Thankfully at this point he likes them covered with flavored yogurt rather then syrup which makes them a little healthier. Normally my husband makes us breakfast a few times a month on Saturday and I then give my son the leftover pancakes through out the week. A few weeks back my daughter wanted pancakes for supper and I wanted to try some homemade ones other then the Bisquick ones my husband normally makes. I had this recipe that I had bookmarked from a food blog so I gave it a try. I love how easy they where to make and how healthy they really are. My son loves them and I plan to make a double batch soon so I can freeze some.

I also love how I had everything I needed to make these pancakes no buttermilk required which is good since I don’t keep that in my fridge a lot. I am thinking about adding a little cinnamon the next time I make these just to change them up a little.

Not the best picture I know but I was in a hurry this morning. I first had this recipe a few months back at a MOMS Club activity. I kept meaning to make it but never did. This morning I had a MOMS Club activity to go to and needed something fast and yummy and this recipe fits that bill perfectly.
