Nicole’s Heart Healthy Cinnamon Pancakes

Ingredients:
2 cups Heart Smart Bisquick pancake mix
2 egg whites
1 ½ cup of fat free skim milk or enriched soy milk
¾ tablespoon of cinnamon

This is lots of fun to make with a grown up! Kids do the mixing, adults do the cooking. Whip it up until smooth and creamy. If you think it’s too thick then add a little more milk. If it’s too thin add more pancake mix. Preheat cooking griddle at medium for about 5 to 10 minutes Pour pancake mix onto griddle. Flip when you see bubbles. Then wait for 30 seconds to one minute and take off griddle or until pancake is golden brown.

When finished the pancakes can be served with healthy heart butter (soy butter) and syrup or you can serve with a variety of sliced fruits such as pineapple, strawberries, bananas, blue berries or raspberries.
