Have fun in the kitchen with your little ones and create these recipes:

Breakfast: Blender Pancakes
What's best about this recipe? It's extremely healthy and still tastes great!

Ingredients:

  • 1 cups long grain brown rice
  • 1 cup millet or corn
  • 2 1/2 cups water
  • 1 to 1 1/2 apples – cored and cut into chunks
  • 1 round teaspoon Celtic sea salt
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon aluminum-free baking powder

Directions:

Soak your brown rice and millet or corn in water overnight. This begins the germination process, breaks down the phytic acid and makes the grains easier to blend.

In the morning, blend all of the ingredients together until slightly grainy. Add aluminum-free baking powder and mix until smooth. Bake cakes on a hot griddle and serve to your little ones!
