Obviously, these pancakes looked a little different than normal:

Clinton explained that they were spinach pancakes for her daughter, Charlotte.
But the internet decided that it wasn’t having it with the green oddity:

Clinton responded to the criticism with a confession about her daughter:
Dear internet, my daughter needs +iron so we put spinach in everything we can. The pancakes may not be pretty but she eats them(&their iron)

“Dear internet, my daughter needs +iron so we put spinach in everything we can. The pancakes may not be pretty but she eats them(&their iron),” she explained.
If anyone is in need of more iron in their diet, Clinton provided a recipe:
We +puréed spinach which we blend after steaming to our regular pancake recipe but with a little less mix-Hope that makes sense!
