Pink Pancakes AKA Beet Pancakes

I know, I know, beet pancakes weird huh? They are good and the best part is my kids love them!

I buy fresh beets and steam them in a steamer(or boil on the stove), then make a puree in the food processor. Usually I do this in bulk and freeze 1/2 cup portions in zip lock baggies.

The recipe:

3/4 cup water

1/2 vanilla yogurt

1/2 beet purree

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1 cup pancake mix

1/4 cup grated apple

olive oil or canola oil for pan

Combine the water, vanilla yogurt, beet puree, vanilla, and cinnamon in a bowl mix well. Add the pancake mix and apple, and stir until just combined. The batter will be a little lumpy. Use a griddle or large nonstick skillet to cook pancakes. Use medium heat, add oil. Cook pancakes for about 2 minutes on each side. Serve warm, with syrup, powder sugar and/or fruit.
