Introduction
Enjoy your pancakes with a small amount of pure maple syrup, hold the butter, and this is simply delicious and filling! Can be eaten plain to make a great nutritional snack food too! Just refrigerate leftovers, pop in the microwave when needed, and um, um, good! I modified this recipe from EN (www.environmentalnutrition.com) and used whole wheat flour, omitted the salt, and used Splenda as a substitute for 3 tbsp. sugar. This recipe will boost your health with flaxseed's health-promoting omega-3 fatty acids, phytoestrogens, fiber and protein. Enjoy!
