🥕 trying this weekend!

Maple Monday! Easy Carrot Cake Pancakes with Cream Cheese Maple Syrup

Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, or substitute gluten-free baking mix
1/4 cup brown sugar, packed
2 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 1/4 teaspoon salt
15 ounces crushed pineapple
2 cups freshly shredded carrots
1/2 cup sweetened shredded coconut
1/4 cup melted butter (or coconut oil) + extra for griddle
1 extra-large egg, or 1/4 cup vegan egg substitute
6 ounces cream cheese, or vegan cream cheese
1/2 cup pure maple syrup

Instructions:
Preheat a griddle (or a large non-stick skillet) to medium heat. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Stir well.
Add the crushed pineapple and juices, shredded carrots, shredded coconut, butter, and egg. Mix well until smooth and thick.
Let the batter rest while you make the cream cheese maple syrup. Place the cream cheese and maple syrup in the blender. Puree until smooth.
Butter (or oil) the griddle. Use a 1/4-cup scoop to portion the batter onto the griddle, leaving plenty of space between each portion. Use the bottom of the scoop to spread the batter into 4-inch circles. Cook for 2-3 minutes, until bubbles start to form on the top. Then flip the pancakes and cook another 2-3 minutes, until fluffy in the center.
Re-butter the griddle and repeat with remaining batter. Once all the pancakes are cooked, stack them on plates and drizzle with cream cheese maple syrup.

We're so close to celebrating our 2024 spring MOHW, and we can't WAIT to see those photos of you all visiting sugarhouses all over Vermont on Saturday and Sunday!

From here on out, we'll be doing our best to continue to highlight as many sugarhouses and maple partners as possible, but y'all... the absolute INSANE turn out we had this year has been AMAZING! We had OVER 100 locations participate this year and land on our Maple Map! WOW!

We are so proud to be in partnership and support of all of our amazing sugar makers and sugar partners for MOHW and beyond - we quite literally would not be here without you all. Have a fun, safe, maple-filled weekend.

May the sap run fast, the boilers burn hot, and the liquid gold flow freely for everyone! See you in the woods! 🍁❤

Planning to visit Vermont for the total solar eclipse on April 8, 2024? Here are some tips to make the most of your experience:
🌞 Clear the way by staying another day to spread out the traffic.
😎 Grab your eclipse glasses ahead of time to protect your vision - and NEVER look directly at the sun!
🛣️ Plan to view the eclipse as close to your lodging as possible, since roads will see increased traffic on the days surrounding this natural phenomenon.
