(I’m late, I know)

did the carrots in the pancakes make it taste like carrot cake? and do you add spices like cinnamon or nutmeg to your pancakes?

So I’m wondering DeeDee, does the flavor remind you a bit of pumpkin pie?

How can you be so funny and so practical AT THE SAME TIME?!?

It’s not natural, I tell you.

The pancakes sound DIVINE! I adore breakfast, so this recipe will definitely be added to my arsenal.

And since we have a new baby in the house (ergo, I won’t be cooking big meals anytime soon), we might just have it for dinner this week.

With bacon. Because bacon is tasty.

Quick question: I assume I can leave out the pureed carrots without consequence, right?

Kiy,
I add pumpkin sometimes, too! Great minds, and all.

Ann,
I don’t think 2% milk would make any difference in the least. I’m simply cutting fat a tiny bit by using the FF powdered milk.

what about using 2% milk…do you think it would make a difference?

Thanks…been looking for a good–tried and true–whole wheat pancake recipe. Because mine taste like, well, cardboard!

whole wheat pastry flour will make an even lighter, tastier pancake. if you can get ahold of some.

Dee, I’m actually going to be giving this a try soon. I use “The Sneaky Chef” so I’m all for hiding pureed veggies wherever I can. But when I made the pancakes from there, they came out flat and I had a hard time cooking them evenly. The ones I didn’t burn or smoosh had great taste & once I explained to my older daughter that it was just the wheat flour that did that, she was willing to eat them and my son didn’t even hesitate. Now if I could just get their Bisquick loving father to eat them!!!
Thanks for the recipe!

I will have to try this, thanks! BTW, I add a cup (or so) of canned pumpkin. I am a pumpkin crazed nut and cannot get enough. I think my daughter thinks ALL pancakes are pumpkin pancakes! I could try the carrots, but mmmmm pumpkin!

Thanks again, printing this recipe for sure!
