I understand the boredom issue, we are dealing with this too. If they

eat pancakes, I'd experiment with several different flavors, this is a

good way for hiding extra veggies.

For breakfast, I make a few variations of different pancakes. I also

just make quick sausage patties using ground pork, lamb or turkey using

salt, pepper, sage and maybe a little honey. Sometimes I grate an apple

and add it to them.

They always have a banana while waiting for breakfast. I also usually

cook up some frozen berries to go along with breakfast.

For pancakes, they usually have " pumpkin pie " pancakes or apple

pancakes. I have also even added banana and avocado for green pancakes.

These recipes feed my two boys for one meal (about 8 pancakes).

1 cup pecan meal (or almond flour)

4 eggs

1/3 cup pureed cooked squash (or 2 apples shredded or one bananad and

1/2 avacado)

1/4 tsp vanilla

1/4 tsp baking soda

cinnamon, nutmeg and ginger (or cinnamon only)

the syrup is 1/2 honey 1/2 cider heated

I also make " donuts " with a variation of the recipe (1 less egg, 1/2 the

fruit, and 2 TBS honey) and pour it into well buttered donut pan and

bake at 325 for about 18 minutes. These freeze well and are great when

on the road. It will make six donuts.

I have seen Donut Pans for sell at Wal-Mart and most kitchen

appliance/gadget stores have them.

The look like miniture bunt cakes (cupcake pans) that make donut

shapes.

My mom gave them to me. I think they were called Donut Express. I don't

have the box anymore. I recall it said 'as seen on TV'

It had a regular donut pan (makes 6) a mini pan (makes 12) and a jelly

donut pan (no hole in the middle). The jelly donut pan in great for

making hamburger rolls. I haven't ventured into trying loaves of bread.

The great thing about the pan is it's easier to make sure they cook

through and its an individual serving to just cut in half and make a

sandwich. Freeze well also.

Answering my own post but here is what I have. The user feedback comment

on the page is terrible, and is probably true if using regular SAD

ingredients. For OUR type of cooking, these are a godsend.

I would suggest though, to thoroughly grease the pan with a solid fat

such as butter or ghee, not a liquid. It is hard to get out of the pan

otherwise. Even with butter, the donut pan with holes can be tricky,

make sure to grease the hole part well and loosen with a butter knife

when slightly cooled.

Great Idea! I bet you could use the injector thing to pipe in yummy

homemade yogurt w/fruit for a " creme " filled like donut too!

Definitely tucking that one away for when we are ready for it!

Thanks!

PS: Bed Bath and Beyond sells an original Twinkie Pan that would

probably work great for something creative too!
