Do you have a gluten and/or lactose intolerance but love pancakes? No problem! I learned of these pancakes during my switch to a low-glycemic diet. Most flours and gluten-free mixes are super high in starch and sugar, so I feared I would have to bid adieu to some of my favorite breakfast classics. It is, with great honor to supply you all with this recipe; one that has become a major staple to my breakfast regime. Enjoy! Nom, nom, nom...
Almond Meal Pancakes (serves 2)
1 Cup Almond Meal (Trader Joe's carries bags of this at a reasonable price.)
1/4 tsp Salt
1/4 tsp Baking Soda
(Feel free to add spices here: Cinnamon, Nutmeg, go for the Pumpkin Spice, be creative!)
4 Eggs
1 tsp Vanilla Extract
2 Tb honey
(Add berries, other fruit, chocolate chips, etc...)
Viola! Cook 'em up and top with your favorite garnish. Some of my ideal toppings are peanut butter, jam, yogurt, cottage cheese, fruit, maple syrup, etc. Here's a picture of the almond meal pancakes that I made for my last birthday, topped with bananas and young coconut custard:
