Two large and fluffy pancakes and a sweet cream cheese glaze... YUMMMM!
And don't be daunted by the number of ingredients. This extra-special
breakfast is 100% worth it!
Ingredients:
For Pancakes
1/4 cup shredded carrots, chopped
1/4 cup fat-free liquid egg substitute (like Egg Beaters Original)
2 tbsp. canned pure pumpkin
2 tbsp. crushed pineapple in juice, drained
2 tbsp. light vanilla soymilk
1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
1 tbsp. raisins
1/3 cup whole-wheat flour (not packed)
1/4 tsp. baking powder
1 no-calorie sweetener packet (like Splenda or Truvia)
3/4 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. pumpkin pie spice
Dash salt
For Glaze
1/2 tsp. powdered sugar
1 no-calorie sweetener packet
1/8 tsp. vanilla extract
1 tbsp. light vanilla soymilk
1 tbsp. fat-free cream cheese, room temperature
Directions:
Place carrots in a microwave-safe bowl with 1 tbsp. water. Cover and
microwave for about 1 minute, until softened. Once cool enough to handle,
add egg substitute, pumpkin, pineapple, soymilk, vanilla extract, raisins, and
2 tbsp. water. Mix well and set aside.
In a large bowl, combine all other pancake ingredients: flour, baking powder,
sweetener, cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, and salt. Stir well. Add carrot-egg
mixture and mix thoroughly.
Bring a skillet sprayed with nonstick spray to medium-high heat. Add half of
the batter to the pan to form one large pancake. Cook for 2 - 3 minutes, until
pancake begins to bubble and is solid enough to flip. Gently flip and cook for
an additional 1 - 2 minutes, until both sides are lightly browned and inside is
cooked through. Plate your pancake. Remove skillet from heat, re-spray,
and return to medium-high heat. Repeat with remaining batter to make a
second pancake.
To make the glaze, combine powdered sugar, sweetener, vanilla extract, and
soymilk in a small dish. Mix thoroughly. Add cream cheese and microwave
for about 30 seconds. Stir until smooth. Spread over your pancakes and eat
up!
