Could you give us a recipe that you like to cook for your little ones?

My Buckwheat Blueberry Pancakes are one of my all time favourites, and all kids gobble them up. They’re packed with nutrients and really filling.

Blueberry Buckwheat Pancakes

1 cup (sprouted) Buckwheat Flour

½ cup Plain Flour (GF etc)

1 tsp Baking powder

1 pinch sea salt

2 eggs

1 well mashed ripe banana

1 tbsp maple syrup

¼ cup fresh blueberries

1 cup milk of choice

2 tbsp melted butter/coconut oil

Method

Mix dry ingredients in bowl, make a well in centre, crack both eggs in and slowly incorporatefrom the inside out with a whisk, add maple syrup and mashed banana, keep whisking slowly. Drizzle in milk until no flour is dry and batter is thick yet pourable. Heat pan and melt butter/oil, add to batter for a glossy finish. Fold in blueberries carefully. Ladle small puddles to hot pan, flip when bubbles start to appear. Stack and drizzle with more syrup and fresh berries.
