Missy Chase Lapine, author of "The Sneaky Chef," adds this Orange Puree, made from carrots and yams to kids' favorite foods. Orange Puree sweetens the flavor -- and the nutritional value -- of these appealing pancakes. Ingredients 2 cups flour 2 tablespoons sugar 2 teaspoons baking powder 1/2 teaspoon baking soda 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 1/4 cups buttermilk (or more) 3/4 cup Orange Puree 2 eggs 3 tablespoons butter, melted and cooled slightly Instructions 1. Whisk together the dry ingredients in a medium-size bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, Orange Puree, eggs, and melted butter. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients, then pour in the buttermilk mixture. Whisk gently until just combined. If the batter is too thick, add another 2 or more tablespoons of buttermilk. 2. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Grease the hot skillet, then pour batter onto the skillet 1/4 cup at a time, spreading each cupful to about 4 1/2 inches in diameter with the back of a spoon. Cook the pancakes until bubbles form on the surface, about 2 minutes, then flip them and cook until golden, about 2 minutes more. Makes 16 pancakes.
