Every morning for the past couple of weeks Kiari will wake up (and she's always the first, usually about 7) and say, "I wanna eat pancakes." And pancakes are great, don't get me wrong, but it's not like there's a vast amount of nutritional value in them! Not wanting to deprive my children of something that they're actually willing to eat I decided I better vamp them up a little bit to try and make them at least somewhat good for them. So yesterday I pulled out a can of yams that I had left over from Thanksgiving, mashed them up, and mixed them in with the pancake batter. They turned out great and the kids ate them up as though there was no difference. Of course I didn't tell them that there was a difference, otherwise chances are that they would have come to their own conclusion before even trying them!
So Yamcakes are a new hit at the VanderSloot house!
I think I'll be trying banana pancakes next.
