These Grain Free Sugar-Free Pumpkin Pancakes are a perfect fall breakfast that even your teen can make! They're low carb, gluten free and have no added sugars!
Partnering with Silk these last few months has been the best thing that has happened to my family. Their #Inspired campaign has been a Godsend to me! My theme was to get my kids to be more independent in the kitchen and it has truly and wonderfully made such a difference in all of our lives!
Not only did we create new and delicious recipes together, that were all geared for my kids ages. The little man who is just 9, has made some fabulous no heat cooking recipes with me and my daughter just 12, has also made some wonderful treats and lunchbox snacks!
But today's recipe was a goal of mine to get my reluctant 15 year old to cook at the stove. I knew he could do it, but he never wants to. He'd just rather me do all the cooking for him and that was not going to work for me anymore!
I asked him, "How do you know when to flip?" He said, "Flip it when it's good".
Yep. That is a 15 year old. I gave him some tips but he did well on his own.
Although he really didn't want to participate in this adventure this year, I think he's glad I pushed him into it. Having confidence is the kitchen is an important skill I want my kids to learn. He'll be off to college in just 3 years so this makes me happy he can actually fend for himself rather than rely on others or have to eat unhealthier options for convenience.
These pumpkin pancakes came out fantastic! Soft and amazingly grain free! Not a lot of coconut flavor if that's a concern for you. The pumpkin is the star in these pancakes!
