When you look through the internet searching for healthier options for your favorite sweet treats there are a number of traps. The common ones I find are:
– There is still a huge amount of sugar in the recipe despite being less refined. (this can be hidden in things like agave syrup)
– Sweeteners are used instead of sugar. These sweeteners are neuro-toxic are not linked to health or weight loss.
– The food is so healthy it no longer resembles food it is trying to replicate. Believe me the kale, bean and protein powder cupcakes taste nothing like a cupcake!
There are number of great things about this recipe:
– Its easier than normal pancakes
– It tastes really close to a egg based crepe
– It contains no overly processed foods / powders
– All ingredients can be found easily in most kitchens
– No added sugars, no artificial sugars
It is so good it has replaced normal pancakes in our house.
