Stepping out of my comfort zone

Last weekend I wanted to have a crack at making pancakes without flour and I was in the mood to really step out of my comfort zone.

I was thrilled with the outcome because hubby was the first to try and when he smiled and told me I was going to love it, that was all I needed to hear.

We ended up with 2 large sized pancakes from the following ingredients:

Pancake batter
2 eggs
2/3 cup LSA
2 tablespoons greek yoghurt
1 teaspoon bicarb of soda
2 teaspoons coconut oil
1 tablespoon water

To make the batter, I lightly beat the eggs in a bowl and mixed in the LSA, bicarb of soda, yoghurt and water until smooth.

I heated 1 teaspoon of the coconut oil in a large frying pan over a medium to high heat and spooned half of the batter into the pan, cooking for about 3 minutes (bubbles will appear).  Turn the pancake over carefully (I smashed the first one but hubby still enjoyed it) and cook for a couple more minutes or until cooked through.  Remove from the pan and repeat with remaining oil and batter.

I topped my pancake with fresh blueberries, greek yoghurt, goji berries, coconut flakes and cinnamon.  You might also like to try a drizzle of rice malt syrup.

This turned out to be one of the nicest, satisfying pancakes I've ever eaten and it didn't leave me feeling heavy or bloated.

Enjoy!
