Green Pancakes

Add the rest of the ingredients and blend.

Using the oil of your choice, add it to a large skillet over medium heat. Pour about ¼ cup batter into the pan for each pancake. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, until soft bubbles form on top, then flip and cook for another minute or two.

Top with maple syrup and enjoy.
Recipe Notes
Maria notes: I like to cook with coconut oil and ghee because they are healthy cooking oils and tolerate medium to medium-high heat. But, you can choose the oil you like!
