Who Says Pancakes Can’t Be Healthy?

There is this misconception among many of my psoriasis patients that pancakes make you fat and are for people who couldn’t care much about their waistline. Well, this is simply not true, and this recipe is an excellent example to put the record straight. This is a delicious and very healthy pancake recipe for those who are allergic to many things; they taste nice and make good cold snack foods as well.

Ingredients

1 cup of brown rice flour ½ cup of tapioca flour ¼ cup of potato starch 1½ teaspoons of baking soda 2 teaspoons of baking powder 2-3 tablespoons light olive oil (Sunflower oil is nice too) 1/4 cup goat milk protein powder, depending on how much protein you want. (Rice protein powder would work as well) Stevia or Xylitol natural sugars to taste (optional) 1+ cup water–to taste, depending on thickness desired Additions can be sweet (berries) or savory (like zucchini).

Mix together well and drop into pan and brown on both sides. The toppings are endless, and this pancake can be eaten any time of day. It tastes nice when it is cold as well, and would be a useful addition to a picnic or a BBQ.

Buckwheat Pancakes

A Very Tasty Breakfast Treat

Have you ever tried to make buckwheat pancakes? They are so satisfying and good for you too. Many people consider pancakes too much effort to make and go for those packet mixes you buy in the supermarket. Not only are they full of things you don’t want in your diet, they are more expensive and don’t taste half as good!Buttermilk is not that hard to get, and buckwheat you can easily obtain from any good health food store.

Try this recipe, the combination of warm soft pancakes, bananas, blueberries and some (real) maple syrup on top is heavenly. Be sure to buy real maple syrup by the way, not that “fake” stuff in those plastic squeeze bottles. Sprinkle with a little Stevia (natural sweetener) and avoid maple syrup if you are worried about having sugar with your breakfast treat.

Ingredients

2 bananas 2 eggs 1½ cups buttermilk 1 cup buckwheat flour ½ cup stoneground cake flour (Can’t find it? Mix 1 part cornflour to 3 parts plain flour) 1 tbs brown sugar 1 tbs baking powder Pinch of Himalayan salt Sunflower or rice bran oil for frying Fresh blueberries 100% pure Canadian maple syrup on top

Method

Whisk in the eggs, then add the buttermilk. Add the dry ingredients to a large bowl and create a well in the middle. Add the wet ingredients and whisk together until just combined. Leave to rest for 15 minutes. Add one teaspoon of sunflower oil in a pan over medium low to medium heat. Once it starts getting hot, add two tablespoons of the pancake mixture. As soon as bubbles start forming on the surface of the pancake, drop on some blueberries, flip and cook for another minute. Set aside on a plate lined with a paper towel (keep warm in the oven if you like). Serve drizzled with plenty of pure Canadian maple syrup. Enjoy!

Notes

Don’t use the maple syrup if you are trying to clear a candida yeast infection, you are best to avoid any form of sweetener until after your candida cleanse. The same goes for bananas, berries are a better option in this case.
