Servings: 1 serving
Equipment
- Stove
- Griddle pan
- Pancake spatula
Ingredients
- ¼ cup sweet rice flour
- ¾ cup all purpose bob's red mill gluten-free flour blend
- ½ teaspoon xanthan gum
- ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon cardamom
- 1 whole vanilla bean, cut lengthwise
- 2 jumbo organic eggs
- ⅓ cup quinoa milk or non-dairy milk of choice
- ⅔ cups spring water
- 1 ½ cups blueberries
- 1-2 tablespoon ghee or coconut oil for greasing the pan
- 30 drops liquid stevia
Instructions
- Mix all dry ingredients together in a bowl and set aside.
- With a hand mixer, beat eggs along with vanilla bean in a separate bowl and set aside.
- Slowly beat the dry mixture into the wet mixture until blended well.
- Then add in ⅓ cup Quinoa or non-dairy milk along with ⅔ cup water to the mixture and continue to beat until the mixture is smooth.
- Using liquid stevia, add 30 drops of Liquid Stevia and beat well until blended. Then add ¾ cup blueberries to the mixture.
- Heat skillet to medium/high heat with cooking spray, ghee,or coconut oil. Then create medium-sized pancakes in the pan, about 4 at a time if you are using a large pan. Manually add desired amount of remaining blueberries to the top of each pancake.
- Pancakes should cook on each side until lightly browned. Serve cool, warm, or hot, and don't forget to sweeten these with pure maple syrup!
Notes
- Remember, not all-natural sweeteners are created equal. Agave is super high in Fructose. 80 percent high! Much higher than Maple Syrup.
- You can also try Brown Rice Syrup, honey, or coconut butter as they are all on the lower end of the glycemic index and are from a natural source.
- The best part about these pancakes is that you can use whatever fruit you want like cherries, raspberries, strawberries, figs, and even peaches and apples!
- Ghee is another name for clarified butter which can be found in the dairy section of your supermarket. Ghee is a great source of good fat.
- Liquid Stevia is very different than packaged powder stevia. In order to make this recipe sugar-free, you will need the liquid Stevia that does not have any additives in it. This you can find at your local health store.
