Weekend breakfasts around our house usually feature waffles or pancakes. The inspiration for these pancakes, by Maria Emmerich at Mind, Body, Health kicked off a flurry of creating as many different versions as I could imagine. A full meal’s protein—without the carbs—in a pancake delivery system? Check!
Orange Peel Pancakes
Yield: 2 servings
4 eggs
1/4 cup coconut flour
2 tablespoons orange (or lemon zest)
1/4 teaspoon orange (or lemon extract)
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
pinch of salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
4 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.
Great with Chia Orange Marmalade!
