Meatless Monday Recipe: Whole Wheat Banana, Pumpkin & Flax Pancakes

Happy Meatless Monday! This week I wanted to share a decadent, delicious and healthful recipe from my intern Alexandra’s blog inmybowl.com for make-ahead whole wheat banana, pumpkin & flax pancakes.

There is nothing better than sleeping in on the weekend and starting the day with something a little decadent. You and your family can savor that feeling every day of the week with this quick recipe that can be made ahead in one large batch, popped in the freezer, and then popped right into the toaster at your convenience to reheat. These pancakes are incredibly customizable; feel free to substitute pumpkin with blueberries, raspberries and even a few chocolate chips. Serve them with sliced banana, coconut yogurt, or pure maple syrup.
