Fast and Easy Gluten Free Dairy Free Secret Pumpkin Pancakes

These pancakes are awesome because they are gluten, and dairy free (grain free too!) AND they are super fast and easy. 

Plus, the kids love them.  Hits all the important points, right? 

As another added bonus, they are really good for you! 
Since my son was diagnosed as anaphylactic to pumpkin, we have started using "secret pumpkin".

Gluten Free Dairy Free Secret Pumpkin Pancakes
12 eggs 
2 cups of sweet potato puree (or 1 can (15 oz) of pumpkin , if tolerated)
4 Tbs. chia seeds*
1 1/2 tsp. cinnamon 
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. vanilla 

Add all ingredients to blender and blend until evenly combined.  Cook on heated, greased skillet.  As all gluten free pancakes, these do better when kept a little smaller.

(*You can make these without chia seeds and they are still great.  The chia seeds just add volume to the pancakes and make them seem more "bready".  Plus they add awesome nutrients, antioxidants, fiber, and healthy fats! Win win!)
