Peanut Butter and Jelly Pancakes

Lunch meets breakfast with these whole grain, protein-packed peanut butter and jelly pancakes.

While we don’t eat pancakes every weekend, a few times a month I like to whip up a big batch so that I can stock the freezer with homemade frozen pancakes. Mornings are a bit frantic in our house so I love knowing that I can have a warm, wholesome breakfast ready in just 60 seconds.

Lucky for me, my oldest loves to help “Mama mix”. Cooking with toddlers isn’t the tidiest of tasks but I believe it’s important to get your kids in the kitchen at an early age. Friends often ask why my kids aren’t picky eaters and I really believe getting them involved in the cooking process from farm to plate plays a vital role in their attitudes towards food.

This time of year we often make pumpkin or banana pancakes but I decided to turn my son’s favorite sandwich into breakfast with these Peanut Butter and Jelly Pancakes. Plain yogurt keeps them light and fluffy and natural peanut butter adds tons of flavor, healthy fats and protein.

These freeze beautifully so make a double batch and thank me in the morning!

Your fork is waiting.

1/2x1x2x

• ▢ ½ cup creamy natural peanut butter
• ▢ 1 ½ cups whole wheat pastry flour
• ▢ ½ cup flax seed meal

• ▢ ½ cup plain low fat yogurt
• ▢ 1 teaspoon vanilla

Instructions

 

• Heat peanut butter in a microwave-safe dish for 30 seconds; set aside.
