Healthy Whole Wheat Pancakes With a Tropical Twist
"Be Not Afraid! Using whole wheat is not only healthy, it can taste good, too! I used Coconut milk in this recipe not only to add flavor, but add nutrition as well. Coconut milk provides 50% more calcium than cow's milk and has less calories (look in your grocer's dairy case for coconut milk). The combination of the coconut milk and banana, you will feel like you made a trip to the tropics for breakfast! Use real maple syrup for the best results. I hope you will enjoy this recipe!"
