“Best fall weather ever”, is what is being echoed all across the land. Are you taking advantage of the beautiful weather and our gorgeous pacific northwest views? If so, we want to see it! Tag us (@crossfit45north) in your photos on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, etc! Our goal is to help you be more functional in life and we want to see the outcome 🙂
Even though it doesn’t seem like Christmas is near, we want to help you out before the holiday frenzy begins. We want to start by reminding you that we offer an “On-Ramp Program” for people who are new to CrossFit or just need a little refresher. Do you know someone who wants to start but is a little nervous? Or maybe you know someone who did CrossFit a number of years ago and is worried about getting back into it? For Christmas, purchase an On-Ramp Package as a stocking stuffer. The On-Ramp Package includes 3, one-on-one, 60 minute sessions with a trainer and a free month of CrossFit. You already know how awesome our community is, share the love with someone you love…or like, and get them into a community that will support them with their new year health and fitness goals. Contact us with any questions!
Of course, you do not have to wait until Christmas either! We would love to have your loved one or your friends come check us out anytime. Whether its a free trial class, setting up an On-Ramp Package or doing a simple drop in, we want to show off our community and space!

1/2 cup pumpkin puree
You may use canned, boxed, or fresh. The recipe works just-right with canned and yields a delicate pancake.
optional: 1-2 Tbsp of coconut flour To keep the consistency a bit thicker/firmer if you use boxed, or freshly cooked and strained pumpkin, you may need the coconut flour. If you use it, I recommend sifting it into the wet ingredients slowly to combine it well.
Whisk the eggs, canned pumpkin, pure vanilla extract, and pure maple syrup together. Sift the pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, and baking soda into the wet ingredients.
Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Then, mix the butter into the batter.
Grease the skillet and spoon the batter into the skillet to make pancakes of your desired size. When a few bubbles appear, flip the pancakes once to finish cooking.
Serve with grass-fed butter and cinnamon or sliced bananas.
Change it up
Instead of adding maple syrup to sweeten this recipe, try adding a mashed, whole ripe banana to the mixture. If you add a banana, the yield will increase.
