carrot pancakes with maple cashew cream

by Kristina Sloggett on September 26, 2012

in Breakfast

There’s IHOP pancake day (February 28?) then there’s National Pancake Day, which I think actually happens several times a year.

The National Pancake Day that I always remember is the day before my birthday… and that is today!

I have a huge roundup of recipes, a few from me and many from my clever friends – delicious pancakes to celebrate National Pancake Day.

All I have to do now is decide which ones I should make for my birthday breakfast…

 

carrot cakes with maple cashew cream

 

grain free gingerbread protein pancakes

 

double rich chocolate protein pancakes

 

german chocolate pancakes (with a surprise ingredient!)

 

lemon blueberry protein pancakes

 

perfect cherry pancakes

 

pumpkin protein pancakes

 

sweet cream protein pancakes

 

maple cinnamon protein pancakes with glazed apples

 

buckwheat pancakes

 

whole wheat blueberry pancakes with blueberry topping

 

pan-crepes

 

spinach pancakes

What is your favorite pancake?

Tomorrow is National Chocolate Milk Day, if you want to plan ahead…

It’s so funny how you can make me really want something I don’t normally like!

I agree with Heather. Everyone freaks out about pancakes, but I haven’t had them in years and really don’t crave them at all. However, your spinach pancakes always look delicious.

But…HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

I went years without a single pancake – except for my spinach cakes, which I use as bread. Then I made some breakfast pancakes recently, and … I cannot stop? …and I had to celebrate pancake day… ;)

All the pancakes look amazing but I’d have to choose lemon blueberry or the crepes. Mmm…

Oh my goodness.. all these awesome recipes!

I hope you have a wonderful birthday.

Can I ask why you soak the cashews? Does it make them soft and mushy? I have to try this recipe on the weekend.

Reply

30 spabettie September 28, 2012 at 3:53 pm

hi Elle! yes, I used to soak the cashews to make them softer. I don’t always do that now, with a high powered blender I use them dry (and add water as needed).

Happy Birthday Spabettie, you brilliant queen of healthful cuisine!
Many thanks for all you share, especially superyumful posts like this! My favorite pancakes are any of them…really, I love them plain, thick with fruits or veggies mixed in, rolled around my favorite fillings, topped with vegan ice creams or almond butter or…ohhhh, the variations of the wondrous pancake never cease.! :)
