This recipe is ideal for anyone who doesn't want the insulin swings,
osteoporosis, increased risk of diabetes, excess bodyfat, and tooth decay that come from
eating refined sugar. It's also ideal for anyone who doesn't want the clogged arteries and
saturated fat that butter provides. These pancakes contain required-for-health unsaturated
fats. Not only are they out-of-this world delicious, but just one will fill you up! This

______________________________________________
These pancakes use no saturated fat or processed sugar. The cinnamon will boost your
metabolism (burning fat in the process), and the high protein of the amaranth and soy will
nourish your muscles. The fat in these is the kind your body needs for healthy nerves and
tissue, as well as for the metabolism of other fats. These are also high in fiber.
We recommend you not add any sugars or syrups to these cakes (or any other foods), but
if you "need" more of a sugary taste, use a fine maple syrup or some honey.
Check the label to make sure you are not getting cane sugar in any of its many forms.
