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! 🙂
