Healthy Choc pancakes with a Salted Caramel Sauce.
They have a secret ingredient as well to keep them nice and moist (everyone's favourite word). So good. Testing out mixes of natural sweeteners. This one has Yacon Syrup which is a good substitute for rice malt or maple syrup, plus some granulated stevia . Natural sweeteners have definitely been a life saver since giving up refined sugar. All the fun without the consequences.
Topped with lots of fresh fruit. Another big weekend ahead I'm sure. There are kids everywhere already, and four kids aren't quiet! And it's clouding over after being so hot this week. So fingers crossed we're not all trapped inside all weekend.
Happy weekend!
