Gluten Free Apple Pie Pancakes...tastes like...well an apple pie!

I am so ready for apple season! I love apple spice anything! Apple pie, apple pancakes…..So Good! My kids and husband all said this was their favorite pancake recipe and that they could eat a million of them! Score!!!! To see images of this recipe click here www.icanteatwhat.com

And, by the way, an apple won’t replace your toothbrush, but biting and chewing an apple stimulates the production of saliva in your mouth, reducing tooth decay by lowering the levels of bacteria.

They also help to prevent gallstones, Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, Cancer, diarrhea, constipation, IBS, and so much more.

Not to mention they are ranked one of the highest foods containing antioxidants.

I’m in love with all these health benefits, and thrilled that my kids eat an apple a day!
