Almond Flour Pancakes
I finally bought a bunch of almond flour and have been getting great results with it! Since we have a somewhat large family and are trying to get everyone off grain (slowly but making progress!) I bought in bulk here and was very happy with Honeyville brand. I got my base recipe from a neat blog my cousin told me about (thanks, Cara!) : www.wellnessmama.com. Then I added in my own "stuff": I added a teaspoon of vanilla, pinch of salt, teaspoon of cinnamon - and I had some ginger laying around (we've been sick and it's one thing that is supposed to help but I've never used it before so I'm sneaking it into anything I can think of) - grated finely just a bit. I also reduced the milk/water in the recipe and added in some yogurt (note: not sure if all the good bacteria get killed in the cooking process but thought I'd try). Added a 1/2 cup frozen blueberries (because I couldn't find our fresh blueberries - I suspect some little sneaking children devoured them in secret) and then pretty much "ruined" the entire thing (health-wise) with some semi-sweet chocolate chips (feel free to omit these if you're trying for health) - but if you have a picky little eater it may be worth it to add the chips in and get them used to the pancakes, huh? Well, there you have it! Just my own variation of the "wellness mama" almond flour pancake recipe (visit her blog to see her basic version -she deserves the credit).
