#ThingsThatGoWithCoffee

Somedays I just need pancakes. I wasn't intending to have pancakes for breakfast this morning, nor was I intending to post this recipe, but the craving came on and I just had to indulge—on all levels.

I am constantly attempting to perfect my pancake recipe. You can find my current favorite combo of ingredients below. It’s simple, unsweetened, healthful and makes a really nice and fluffy pancake. 

Note: If I had an overripe banana on hand I would have scaled back the amount of milk and added a mashed banana for a little natural sweetness….

Ingredients:

• ½  cup Brown Rice Flour
• ½  cup Corn Flour (fine grind)
• ½  cup Almond Meal
• 2 tsp Baking Powder
• 1 tsp Cinnamon
• A Pinch of Salt
• 2 Flax “Eggs” (2 tbsp flax meal, mixed with 6 tbsp water)
• 1 cup Alternative Milk
• 1 tbsp Olive Oil
• 1 tsp vanilla
• Coconut oil for greasing the pan.

Method

1. Make "flax eggs" by mixing flax meal and water, set aside.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together all dry ingredients.
3. Add flax ‘eggs’ and the rest of the wet ingredients to your dry mixture and combine thoroughly until everything is fully incorporated.
4. If the batter is too thick, add more alternative milk until you reach the desired consistency.
5. Grease pan with coconut oil & cook cakes until lightly browned on each side.
6. Top with your favorite fruit and maple syrup.
7. Enjoy!
