Butternut Squash Pancakes

This is a very popular breakfast treat in our house. The kids start grabbing them as soon as they are coming out of the skillet!! It may not sound like it from the title, but they really are very, very yummy!!! I highly recommend giving this one a try.
Butternut Squash Pancakes
Ingredients:
1 1/4 cups whole wheat flour
3 Tablespoons cornmeal
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup fat-free milk
1 cup mashed cooked butternut squash
3 Tablespoons brown sugar
1 Tablespoons canola oil
1/2 t. vanilla extract
2 large eggs
I toss all of the ingredients in my blender or mixer and blend until creamy. Then cook them in the skillet like any other pancake. I use a stainless steel skillet. I spray organic canola spray before I cook the first pancake.
The original recipe was given to me by my sister and calls for sweet potatoes and includes chopped pecans. So delicious!!!
