Delicious, naturally colored pink pancakes perfect for Valentine's Day, made with roasted beet, milk, whole wheat flour, and sweetened with maple syrup.
1: Heat a nonstick griddle over medium-low heat. Melt butter on the surface or spray with cooking oil spray.
2: In a blender, puree beet with milk until smooth with no lumps. Add egg, butter, vanilla extract, and maple syrup, and blend to combine.
3: Add flour, baking powder, and salt to the mixture and pulse a few times to combine, being careful not to over blend.
4: Pour 1/3 cup of the batter into the hot griddle. Cook for 2-3 minutes, until small bubbles start to form on the top and the edges firm up. Flip the pancake and cook for another 1-2 minutes until the pancake is cooked through.
5: Serve immediately with mixed berries and maple syrup.
