AUTUMN is in the air… can you feel it? These apple-spiced pancakes embody everything that we love about this season- a hearty breakfast, slowly simmered apples infused with warm spices, and dishes that features flavorful seasonal produce.

Apples: Apple polyphenols help balance gut flora which is important because an imbalance (dysbiosis) is linked to many chronic diseases. Their soluble fiber and phytonutrient content has been shown to provide cardiovascular benefit. With over 7000 different varieties, it’s hard to choose a favorite. I love the honey crisp and pink lady varieties but I’ve never met an apple I didn’t like.
Ginger: Ginger is anti-inflammatory and soothing for the intestinal tract. It has even been shown to protect individuals from colon cancer.
