There have been a number of new food trends popping up during quarantine—like healthy banana bread, whipped coffee, and even focaccia gardens. A lot of these recipes have been making the rounds on TikTok and Instagram, to bring a little extra fun and joy to our days. And the latest trend to hit our feeds is one that has us all looking forward to breakfast: pancake cereal!

This new spin on the classic short stack is basically just a lot of mini pancakes, around the size of a nickel or quarter, cooked in a pan, arranged in a bowl to look like cereal. There's a lot of different recipes floating around, but since most have refined flours and other not-as-healthy ingredients, I created a clean version that's paleo, gluten-free, and absolutely delicious.

The secret ingredient is mbg's organic veggies+ powder, which features all kinds of nutritious ingredients like broccoli, spinach, and sea vegetables, which are rich in magnesium, calcium, iron, and vitamin C.* It's also packed with potent antioxidants like ginger and turmeric, which help decrease inflammation and enhance your immune function.*

Plus, it features vegan digestive enzymes, to support healthy digestion and help your body absorb nutrients.* Not to mention, organic veggies+ powder actually tastes delicious, so it makes a great addition to this nutritious pancake cereal recipe.
