When you're in the mood for a treat, how about some nutritious no-grain pancakes? They're good any time of day, since you can vary the toppings to suit your mood. I am very excited about this recipe!

It's super healthy and guilt-free! You can easily have 3 of these on our very low-carb, low-sugar diet, and not blink twice. They are packed with antioxidants, fiber and good protein.

Pile berries on top, some coconut oil, or a bit of no sugar added jam. Add a cup of green tea for a cancer-fighting breakfast with a PUNCH!

Make sure to grind your own flax seeds ... this grinder is available on Amazon for about $20.

Flourless Flax Seed Pancakes

1/4 cup freshly ground Flax Seeds
1/4 cup Almond Flour
3 Omega-3 Eggs
2 tsp. Baking Powder (Aluminum-free)
1 pinch Sea Salt
3/4 tsp. Cinnamon
1/4 cup Coconut or Almond Milk
1/4 tsp. Vanilla
1Tbs. Pure Maple Syrup

2 tsp. Coconut Oil (for pan)

Add baking powder, almond flour, cinnamon, salt and sweetener to flax meal.

In a separate bowl, beat the eggs with the vanilla and milk. Pour into the meal mixture and blend thoroughly with a fork or whisk.

The batter will be runny like Crepe batter, but fear not, all will come together!

Heat griddle to medium-high heat; grease with coconut oil, and drop batter by 1/4 cups full.

Turn when bubbles appear on the surface of the pancake, cooking for just a minute more.

♥ Bon Apetit!

What better way to start the weekend than with a treat. I don't often indulge in a mostly carb breakfast, but once a week, a high-fiber-carby-yummy treat is good for the soul...and that's good for the body.

I chopped some of the strawberries into the batter...added 1 Tbs. of flax-seed to the already hi-fiber buckwheat mix, an egg, the blueberries and 1 tsp. grated lemon zest.

Oh, and instead of milk I use Almond milk.

Oops! I forgot to show you the bar of 85% dark chocolate! Well, that's in the next photo...but I used 1 ounce to melt on and between the hotcakes.

Add the green tea with pepper and probiotics sprinkled on the rest of the strawberries, and you're ready to soothe the beast within!

P.S. If you like your cakes a little sweeter, use Farmer John's Maple Syrup made with Xylitol.

~ Cheers! ♥
