Healthy Thanksgiving Pancakes
I tried making cranberry orange relish for the first time, knowing that I'm probably the only one in my family who will eat it. The recipe made nearly a quart, so I decide to get inventive. And I was hungry.
Cranberry Relish Pancakes
3/4 cup white whole wheat flour (regular wheat or white is ok)
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/5 teaspoon baking soda
1T ground flaxseed (optional)
1 egg
3/4 cup milk
1 tablespoon butter, melted
3/4 c cranberry orange relish
2 tablespoons chopped walnuts
Mix dry ingredients. Mix egg, milk, and butter, then pour into dry ingredients. Add relish and nuts. Mix just enough to combine all ingredients. Cook on griddle.
Makes about 10 pancakes. Leftovers can be frozen if your kids don't like the pancakes any more than the plain relish.
I ate these plain, but I bet they'd be really good with orange syrup or orange marmalade.
Happy Thanksgiving!
