Mint Chocolate Chip Pancakes, st. patrick's day recipes, green pancake recipe, healthy recipes, guilt free pancakes

These bad boys are tasty and they’re green! But not from food dyes, no ma’am! ? Keep that outta my food, thank you very much! These ‘cakes get their green from spinach! Cute and good for you!? Gimme some!!!

Makes about 6-8 pancakes

*Side note, if you want them SUPER green, add powdered chlorophyll for a green boost + extra nutrients!

Trust me when I say that these little pancakes are as cute as they are tasty… so make sure to add these ingredients to your grocery list this week! And double (or triple!) the recipe if you’re hosting a St. Paddy’s breakfast!

May the luck o’ the Irish be with you… at least this Saturday! 

And if you’re looking for some side dishes for an amazing 3/17 brunch party…may I recommend some other green faves: Spinach Egg Muffins or perhaps a delicious Matcha Latte? Cutest green breakfast ever, if you ask me!
