Mother’s day is coming. As a proud mom of 2 years old toddler about to celebrate my second Mother’s Day, what I want most of all is for my hubby and son to remain healthy, safe and happy. Beyond that, I want a 8 hours sleep, a movie date night with hubby and a breakfast-in-bed on Mother’s Day.
There is nothing better than waking up to the smell of pancakes. This recipe has always been my all-time favourite pancake recipe. If you are allergic to eggs, try replace with flax eggs (1 tbsp of warm water and 3 tbsp of ground flax seed).
This is a super heart healthy pancakes, I used whole wheat flour and rolled oats which are high in fibre and some nuts (I used pecans). There was a canned peaches left in my pantry, so I decided to top up the fibre content.
What are your plans this weekend? What’s your favourite breakfast recipes? Let us celebrate Mother’s Day together, treat your mother or yourself on this special day with this super healthy recipe.
Enjoy! Happy Mother’s Day.
