Clean Eating Buttermilk Pancakes

I subscribe to Clean Eating magazine to get more healthy meal ideas.  It is full of great recipes that don’t use highly processed carbs and refined sugars.  I got this Clean Eating Buttermilk Pancake recipe from their website and adapted it, making a few substitutions to suit my taste buds and it turned out great.  

I also added a little water to the original recipe.  It seemed a bit too thick.  I love the taste of these pancakes and they provide you with a healthier, wholesome carbohydrate source.  Serve with a small drizzle of real maple syrup and top with fresh berries for added nutrition.
