Let me preface this by telling you how proud I am about these turned out, especially visually.

Just look at that beautiful bright green color! And no, I did not adjust the tint of the stack at all to get that. The pancakes were actually that green!

I even spent a while staring at that stack and feeling all happy on the inside.

Thankfully my roommate didn’t walk in on me, just in case I had a smile on my face back then. She’d probably have thought I was losing my mind with this whole blogging thing.

Spinach in Pancakes?

Yes!

They add a great nutrient boost, and with the stevia and sweetness of the coconut milk, you really can’t taste the vegetable.

Just an amazing stack of healthy pancakes.

Healthy?

Yes!

  • They’re vegetable pancakes
  • Made with whole grain
  • Dairy free too!

But the taste?

Let’s not even go there.

Soft, fluffy, and just de-lish!

They were so beautifully light and slightly sweet, I didn’t even need the maple syrup on there!

I’ve made it 3 times already, and no, it wasn’t just for recipe testing.

  • Blend
  • Combine
  • Stir
  • Scoop
  • Cook
  • Flip

Well they did turn out a little flat the first time coz I added too much milk, but I did the 45-minute shot anyway thinking they were meant to be that way.

I tried it with less milk the next time, and oh my, it was perfect.

Just look at that fluff!

If you still aren’t convinced:

  • This is a meal that takes less than 30 minutes
  • A great meal prep option if you want to make it ahead
  • Freezer-friendly too: They’ll keep for weeks!

Now go try this out for your next brunch; You’re surely going to love them!
