Christmas Spiced Pancakes [Grain Free]

I have a new pancake recipe for you all! These pancakes have a mix of warming spices and are a perfect for a Christmas morning breakfast with the family. They are free of gluten, grains and refined sugars, and can easily be made dairy free. I hope you enjoy.



Serves 1

You will need:

Dry Ingredients:

• 3 tbsp coconut flour, sifted (I use Bob's Red Mill)
• 1 tsp maca powder
• 2 tsp lucuma powder*
• 1 tsp mesquite powder*
• 1/2 tsp cinnamon
• 1/8 tsp nutmeg
• 1/8 tsp baking powder

Wet Ingredients:

• 1 egg
• 1/2 cup egg whites (from the carton, like All Whites)
• 1/4 cup plain kefir 
• sub canned coconut milk for a dairy free option
• 1 tsp vanilla extract

Directions:

• Preheat a skillet over medium heat and melt a bit of coconut oil to coat the bottom.
• Sift all the dry ingredients into a medium mixing bowl.
• In a separate bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients until combined.
• Pour the wet ingredients into the dry, and whisk until well incorporated - the batter should be smooth with no clumps.
• Turn the heat down to medium-low and pour 1/4 cup of the batter onto the center of the pan.
• Let the pancake cook for a few minutes, until bubbles form on the top.
• Flip and cook another 30s - 1min until both sides are browned.
• Repeat with the rest of the batter until it's gone.

*Feel free to omit these ingredients if you do not have them, but sub another 1 tsp of coconut flour. I like these ingredients for the additional depth of flavor they add, but the pancakes will still taste good without them!

Enjoy! :)
