Eggnog Pancakes

Eggnog Pancakes

What’s better than waking up to pancakes for the Holidays! I swapped out the milk in my whole wheat pancake recipe and replaced it with Silk Nog and some extra nutmeg for a fun Holiday twist.

Why Silk nog? I checked the labels of all the eggnogs available in the supermarket, and Silk Nog had the cleanest ingredients, and only 90 calories per serving. It’s also non-GMO, and perfect if you are lactose intolerant. If you like another brand of light eggnog, you can certainly use it in it’s place. I topped mine with a little honey and powdered sugar, but you can use maple, agave or your favorite toppings.
