Apple And Hazelnut Pancakes

---

These are an adaption of a recipe that i found in a reader's digest recipe booklet. i am listing these with gluten free options. if using a gluten flour these will probably turn out a little thinner. They are packed with lots of healthy, high fiber ingredients for a healthier you. i served this with a mixed berry sauce sweetened with a couple of tablespoons pure maple syrup.
