Today we took to the kitchen to whisk up some pancake treats to share with you all for Pancake Tuesday. A healthy blueberry option and a more indulgent cheat clean chocolate stack! Both are gluten free and positively yummy!
The A Department’s Healthy Blueberry Pancakes
What You Need:
1/2 Cup Coconut Flour
1/2 Cup Gluten Free Oats
4 Egg Whites (1 Yolk)
3/4 Cup Unsweetened Almond Milk
1 Tsp Organic Vanilla Extract
1 Tblspn Flaxseed
Blueberries (as little or as many as you like!)
Coconut Oil
Preheat your pan meting a little coconut oil.
In a food processor whisk coconut flour, gluten free oats, eggs, almond milk, vanilla extract and flaxseed. Make sure consistency is just right – i.e.. not too thick and not too runny – you want it to sit in the centre of your pan.
Transfer mixture to a jug to pour into pan and gently mix in your blueberries.
Pour a portion sized pancake into the hot pan, allow to solidify and then flip.
When browned on both sides serve with toppings of your choice. We went with Greek Yoghurt and Agave for this one!
The A Department’s Chocolate Pancake Stack
What You Need:
1/2 Cup Coconut Flour
1/2 Cup Gluten Free Oats
1/3 Cup Raw Cacao
2 Tbslpn Xylitol
4 Egg Whites (1 Yolk)
3/4 Cup Unsweetened Almond Milk
2 Squares 85% Dark Choc
1/4 Cup Raw Nuts (we used cashews, almonds and pecans)
Coconut oil
For the chocolate sauce:
1 Tsp Raw Cacao Butter
3 Tsp Raw Cacao
Preheat your pan meting a little coconut oil.
In a food processor whisk coconut flour, gluten free oats, eggs, almond milk, raw cocoa and xylitol.
Transfer mixture to a jug.
Crush dark chocolate and nuts and set aside for sprinkling!
Pour a portion sized pancake into the hot pan, sprinkle with some crushed chocolate and nuts and allow mixture to solidify before flipping.
When toasted on both sides serve with chocolate sauce.
To make the chocolate sauce simply melt some raw cacao butter and mix with cacao powder. Drizzle over the top of your pancake stack and sprinkle left over chocolate and nuts.
We hope these little recipes go down a treat! Something a little different this Pancake Tuesday!
