Whole Wheat Pancakes (Oil-Free!)

What's a better way to spend your Saturday morning than making pancakes? I mean sure, if you can go on an adventure somewhere outdoors, that would be better. But sometimes you just want to stay home and cozy up with a warm drink, some pancakes, and of course, chocolate. Oh and don't forget a good book. 

After working my ass off the last few months, I started to miss being home and have some down time for myself. I'm a hardcore introvert (if that even makes sense). Spending time by myself, making some nourishing food, listening to music, reading, and journaling. All these are crucial things to me. If I spend a few weeks without any "me" time, I feel out of balance and drained. 

Making pancakes is one of my favorite ways to spend time with myself or with a close friend. It's heart-warming.

So below is an easy recipe you can make with your family or your loved ones. Heck, or just by yourself. #SelfLove
