Weekend breakfasts around our house usually feature waffles or pancakes with bacon. I thought that our tradition was a thing of the past with a low carb lifestyle, but the inspiration for these perfect spice pancakes, by Maria Emmerich at Mind, Body, Health was a lifesaver. These taste somewhat like French toast, because of the eggs, but the luxury of getting a full meal’s protein—without the carbs—in a pancake delivery system is so cool!
Cinnamon Spice Pancakes
Yield: 2 servings
4 eggs
1/4 cup coconut flour
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
pinch of cardamon
pinch of cloves
pinch of salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
3 tablespoons Swerve (or liquid stevia)
If using a mechanical device, mix all ingredients and let sit for five minutes. (If mixing by hand, whisk eggs first, then add the rest of the ingredients; let rest for five minutes.) Oil a frying pan over medium heat. Pour batter into hot pan (I do dollar-sized) and brown before flipping. Cook until golden brown on both sides.
