Ingredients
4 eggs
500 mL (2 cups) finely grated carrot
500 mL (2 cups) finely grated potato
15 mL (1 tbsp) finely grated onion
30 mL (2 tbsp) whole wheat flour
2 mL (½ tsp) baking powder
Directions
Beat eggs in a large bowl. Stir in carrot, potato, onion, flour, and baking powder. Mix well.
Spray griddle or non-stick skillet lightly with cooking spray. Heat over medium heat. Using 125 mL (½ cup) measuring cup, pour batter onto hot griddle. Cook for about 2 minutes or until light golden brown. Flip over and cook for another minute or until light golden brown. Repeat with remaining batter.
For a kick of flavour, add pepper to taste and serve with low-fat sour cream or plain yogurt.
This is a fun recipe to make with little chefs. They can mix up the pancake batter. Older kids can help cook the pancakes.
Get creative. Swap out grated carrot for grated zucchini instead. Squeeze out water with your hands before adding to the egg mixture.
Double this recipe. Layer extra pancakes between wax or parchment paper, and freeze for up to 2 weeks. Warm through in the microwave when ready to eat.
