I am also very excited to share with you a new recipe for low-carb pancakes.  No need to buy a pre-made mix ! These are super easy to make and absolutely delicious.  If you are eating berries at whatever phase you are following, then simply add a sprinkle of them to the pancakes as they are cooking for incredible flavor.  This recipe will make one serving which is approximately 3 decent sized pancakes.  Top them with your fave low-carb syrup or preserves.

RECIPE: LOW CARB PANCAKES

WHAT YOU NEED

1 egg
1 heaping tablespoon of low-carb syrup. I used Joseph's brand which you can find here: Syrup
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
pinch of salt
1/2 cup almond flour
1/4 cup blueberries 


MAKE IT

IN MEDIUM BOWL, whisk together egg, syrup and vanilla until thoroughly combined
BLEND in remaining ingredients except berries
STIR until batter has smooth consistency
LET REST for 10 minutes
PREHEAT skillet over LOW/MED heat and coat with butter / oil blend (I use a spreadable butter than contains both butter and canola oil).   Grapeseed oil will also work here well
POUR batter into prepared pan so you have 3 evenly sized pancakes
PANCAKES will rise up when one side is finished baking and should be golden brown underneath
DROP berries onto top of uncooked side and then flip
REMOVE when underside is golden brown

ENJOY!
