Clementine and Chestnut Pancakes
The second of our Run & Refuel recipe series for our Energiser Programme, crafted by our Nutritional Therapist Phoebe Liebling. These pancakes are the sweetest start to the morning, and provide the perfect energising pre or post workout meal. Not only are they perfectly balanced with healthy fats, fibre, vitamins and minerals, but also create the fluffiest texture and celebrate delicious seasonal flavours.
