    It only makes 6 to 8 pancakes.
    But I live alone so it works out great for me. I use them as bread mostly. so 2 pieces per sandwich. so 3 days of sanwich goodness except I can't eat these at work because people are weirded out by the color.
    Saying they are spinach and gluten free makes them ask more questions. Drives me nuts. yes I'm not a gluten free person but I do try to eat healthier and my sister is gluten free so I try recipes that i can make for her as well

    It's about 125 per cake... Bit high But Flax is high in Calories.
    If You don't add Cheese it's makes it i about 95. But they are so Yummy.

    OH and Each Cake has 9 Grams of Protein.

    Oh it's 2/3 Cup. I'll correct the recipe. Didn't notice i forgot the Cup piece
