Apple Cinnamon Pancakes

These fall-inspired pancakes are delicious and have been revamped from the classic pancake batter recipe to include ingredients that offer a healthy twist. By swapping out the white flour with oat flour, we increase the soluble fibre content, a nutrient known to help with digestion, lowering cholesterol and increasing fullness. By using freshly grated apples in the pancake batter (including the skin!), we add more balance from other food groups into this recipe, increasing nutrient value (e.g., fibre, vitamin C, anti-oxidants). Lastly, these pancakes use whole and less processed ingredients, support less inflammation, and make a wholesome breakfast.
