1 Tbs sugar
1/4 tsp salt
**********************
1 C milk
2 Tbs cooking oil
2 Tbs water

Mix wet and dry ingredients just until combined, and proceed to make delicious pancakes. I’ve found that even when adding ingredients (like Gummi bears, blueberries and bananas) these always turn out great. Certainly my favorite pancake recipe of all time. Usually i just add blueberries but today my son wanted to add Gummi bears, i was genuinely surprised how good they were.

Ingredients:
1 Cup Almonds
1 Cup Walnuts
1/2 Cup Hemp seeds
1/4 Cup Pumpkin seeds
1/4 Cup Pine nuts
Salt
2 Tbs Cinnamon
1/4 tsp Nutmeg
1/4 Cup Coconut oil
1/2 Cup Local honey
1 tsp Vanilla

Directions:

1. Grind almonds and Walnuts in food processor until mostly flour like with a few larger pieces remaining
2. Mix ground nuts with seeds and pine nuts, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg in large bowl, make well in the center
3. Combine wet ingredients
4. Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients all at once, mix until well combined or is that combine until well mixed …?
5. Dump mixture onto parchment lined baking sheet and spread into a smooth layer about 1/4 inch thick
6. Place baking tray in preheated oven at 180f for 4 hours. My current oven is not able to go below 260f so I bake my granola for 2 hours.
7. Cool granola to room temperature, then crumble and store in airtight container

Mashed Acorn Squash

Drizzle with local honey and a splash of whole grass fed milk

Push a tablespoon of grass fed butter into the center to melt

Your acorn squash should come out of the oven with fork tender flesh and a crispy shell

Season with salt and pepper and drizzle avocado oil (or your choice of fat) before placing flesh side up on sheet pan in 350° preheated oven for 35 minutes

Gently cut around seeds to loosen from flesh and use a spoon to scoop them out.
