YES! I did it! Pancakes!

My sweetheart and I had a nice morning making breakfast together.  Here's what we tried today.

 THE RESULTS, THESE BEAUTIFUL HOT CAKES! 

I used a pancake recipe found here.  I added cinnamon because I've read/heard that it's healthy.  There are some statistics on it from the health diaries .  Cinnamon can help with cholesterol, blood sugar, yeast infections, reduction in cancer cells, anti-clotting effect in blood.  It's also a natural food preservative. 

 Although, we sure didn't need that last benefit, there was only one pancake left when the breakfast dishes were cleared. 



  

What I love about this, even more than the fact that it's healthier, is that it's less clutter!  No need to stock an extra box on a shelf, the recipe uses ingredients I already keep on hand.

I dedicate this post to my dad.  The grandkids always beg for his pancakes when they have sleep overs there.  He uses a boxed mix, but he makes them into the cutest teddy bear shapes.

 Maybe he'll ditch the box & give this simple recipe a try next time.
