Carrot-Applesauce Pancakes



This morning I made pancakes, a weekend treat. We had so many carrots in our CSA box this week, that I decided to shread one, using a hand grater and put it into the pancake mix (this morning I used Fresh & Easy Multigrain). It came to about 1/4 cup shredded carrot, although I will put 1/2 cup next time since the kids didn't even notice the tiny orange bits.
As usual, I substituted 1/4 cup apple sauce for the oil or butter that the mix calls for, and added a tablespoon of flaxseed meal (omega 3).
The kids loved them and I have leftovers for breakfast tomorrow. I love starting the morning off with two full bellies!
