Kabocha Squash Pancakes

Serves: 1

Happy Friday! I hope you had a great week! I am so sorry I have been M.I.A, but if you read Monday’s post, then you know that I took advantage of the opportunity to stay in Arizona to spend a few extra days with my sister! It had been 2 years since I had seen her so the extra few days were really a blessing! Although I did think (all the time) about how I owed you a post, I decided that the time was best spent soaking up every second with my sister! So, don’t think I wasn’t thinking of you while I was away ?

I know, I also owe you a big update on the race! I promise to put together a full recap for you because let me tell you…that was one hard race! If you follow me on instagram then you have seen a few pictures! Yes, you can see the death in my eyes after crossing that line!

Until then, you will just have to enjoy this amazing recipe! I had planned on sharing this recipe a few weeks back, but time got lost. I made these pancakes at least 4 times before I left for Arizona….yes, they were THAT good! Then again, anything with kabocha is amazing! For those who can’t find kabocha, you can substitute pumpkin, acorn squash, butternut squash, sweet potato, etc! Whatever your pleasure!

I hope you enjoy! :)

Directions

1. Mash your kabocha squash in a bowl.

2. Add your egg whites (and maple syrup, if using) to your squash. Mix until fully incorporated.

3. Add your almond flour, baking powder and cinnamon to your squash and egg whites.

4. Mix well.

5. Coat a medium skillet with non stick spray (or coconut oil) and set over medium heat.

7. When batter begins to bubble (about 3-4 minutes), flip and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
