The fact that the kids not only asked for seconds (and thirds) of them was both heartwarming and heartbreaking - for most of them, the three pancakes or so (along with one of the apples we brought, so kindly donated by the awesome Second Harvest) were all they had for lunch today.
Boys and Girls Apple - Carrot Pancakes
Serves 6 kids
2 1/2 cups flour
4 tsp baking powder
1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp salt
2 eggs, lightly beaten
2/3 cup brown sugar
2 cups whole milk
1 tsp vanilla
2 cups finely grated carrots (about 2 large)
1 cup finely grated apples (about 1 large)
- Preheat a griddle pan, grease with PAM.
- In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt.
- In another bowl, whisk together eggs, brown sugar, milk and vanilla.
- Stir the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, then add carrots and apples.
- Mix just until moistened - a few lumps are okay.
- Pour batter by 1/4 cupfuls onto the greased griddle.
- Flip when bubbles appear on the top of the pancakes, finish cooking on the other side.

My mom makes famous apple pancakes, I think carrot with the apple sounds like a quality addition! Sounds tasty!
