This recipe is a little playful, as it uses the unusual combination of savory thyme and zucchini with sweet apple and honey. I hope you find them as complementary and joyful as I do. I dedicate this recipe to all my clients who are staying off grains and/ or are following the Thyroid-GAPS diet (important thyroid nutrition foods) and who thought they would never have another pancake. There is life without grains! Try this and you will love it. These pancakes will also keep your blood levels even till mid-day, unlike pancakes made of grain flours. What a perfect way to start the weekend!
