pancake party

there wasn't school on monday, because of president's day.

we celebrated by having a pancake party.


this was a real celebration, because these were ben's very first pancakes (that he can remember)!


ben has been on several allergen-free diets. no dairy, soy, citrus, eggs, nuts, and shellfish. that's a lot of things he can't have. do you have any idea how many things have soy as an ingredient?

i found a simple recipe here. i am in love with this site! so many simple, allergy-free recipes. where has this site been the last four years?! i have a feeling we'll become good friends over the next few years, since miss natalie will also be on allergen-free diets.

6 ingredients. that's all i needed. i used sucanat instead of granulated sugar--that's the stuff in the large white canister.


i mixed all ingredients until smooth. then i added blueberries, because blueberry pancakes are MY favorite pancakes.

spread some dairy/soy free spread (thank you earth balance!) and pour 100% maple syrup on top and wa-la! pure deliciousness!!
