Pancakes makes a great and healthy breakfast. Great for kids when they are rushing to schools. They will love it for sure..I have already shared a cherry and chocolate pancakes and pumpkin pancakes..Will share a eggless pancake recipe soon.


This pancake is so easy to whip up any time of the day. It taste so yummy and the texture is so fluffy and soft. I love it with honey because the soft texture drinks the honey and taste so yum..
I love to add lots of butter over them and enjoy it hot..So try this out and let me know how it turns out..
