Pure Maple Goodness
There are few things better than pancakes when it comes to breakfast food, at least as far as taste goes. Healthwise, though… not so much. But instead of ditching hotcakes completely, try a healthier alternative to the delicious, but artificial, syrup we all love smothering them in! You don’t have to stray too far from your norm, especially if you try using all-natural, pure maple syrup!
Pure maple syrup is as high in sugar as most of the artificial stuff, but unlike the artificial syrups, pure maple syrup is rich in minerals and antioxidants. Pure maple syrup contains calcium, potassium, iron, zinc, and manganese! Darker maple syrup is even higher in antioxidants than lighter syrup.
