Pancakes once were a regular feature in our home and I still like to make them as much as I can. The fantastic thing about pancakes and a picky eater in the house (mine is 4) is that you can hide a lot of different fruits and veggies in the batter. This time, the veggie was squash. My kids loved them. My picky eater ate 3 or 4 of them the first morning. They are fantastic re-heated the next day too. I used some previously cooked butternut squash in the batter, making the batter more squash than anything else.
1 egg
1/2 cup applesauce
2 cups flour
1 cup milk
1 tbsp brown sugar
3 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp cinnimon
2 cups squash (guestimate) - previously cooked and mashed well
Mix everything together. Heat the griddle or frying pan. Spray with non-stick spray. Pour 1/4 batter at a time onto the griddle. (you can also add Mickey Mouse ears with a little extra batter for fun). Let cook through on one side before flipping to cook onto the other. Serve with butter and syrup.
