Better Pancakes
Serves 4 (makes about 12 pancakes)
Rachael says, “My friend Mollie makes these pancakes for her two girls, 3-year-old twins Isabel and Maya. The girls are great eaters, but even the best eaters demand pancakes in between breakfasts of scrambles, yogurt, fruit or oatmeal. Mollie’s solution for giving her girls the food they need to start their day while giving them what they want (which is pancakes) is to ignore the directions on the back of the box. Where it says add one egg, she adds more and where it says add water, she adds milk, bumping up the protein for her girls’ start of their day. In addition, she stirs in plenty of fresh fruits for fiber. Good idea, Mol – thanks for sharing!”
