THE BEST Pancakes Ever… plus they are Healthy!

In my opinion (and singer Jack Johnson’s) there is nothing more scrumptious than freshly made pancakes on a Sunday morning!! Just thinking about the smell of them right now makes me salivate!  

We discovered this recipe for high protein pancakes a few months ago and we just can’t get enough of them! They are gluten-free, very high in protein so they keep you feeling satisfied for hours afterwards and so yummy they beat the unhealthy white refined kind hands down.

To make then extra nutritious we serve them with natural yogurt mixed with a touch of vanilla, some fresh strawberries and a good sprinkling of pumpkin, flax, sunflower and chia seeds.

Give them a try and let me know what you think!  Just so you know they aren’t the wafer thin crepe style variety but the puffier scotch pancakes.

The recipe makes 4 x 5 inch pancakes

1 cup almond meal

2 eggs

2 tablespoons canola oil

1/4 cup of sparkling water (the sparkling water makes them puffier!)

1 tablespoon xylitol or other sweetener

1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon (optional – you can add more if you want)

1/4 teaspoon of salt

Mix all the ingredients together in a bowl and cook in a little oil like regular pancakes. Serve with natural yogurt with a few vanilla pods, fresh strawberries and a sprinkling of seeds – we like pumpkin, sunflower, flax and chia.

ENJOY!!
