While doing the 21 day fix extreme one of the things that are not on our approved list of foods that I can have is pancakes. They really are not my thing but son loves them. Especially ones that look like Mickey Mouse. We had a 2 hour delay earlier this week so I dedicded to make these cashew and oat cakes for him. This was so much healtheir for us than a box of pancake mix! I was worried when he took a bite that he not be a fan but I totally tricked him :) Give it a try for your little ones and let me know if they approve!
