GF Pancakes Recipe

I thought I would post this recipe for those who love pancakes. Super simple and quick to make.

Here is what you will need; 1 cup GF flour blend, 1.5 tsp baking powder, 1 egg, 1 tbsp coconut oil, a pinch of salt & 1/2 cup coconut water give or take. You may need more or less coconut water. It depends on your flour blend; some like more liquids and some like less.

Whisk all the ingredients together till smooth without lumps. Grease your frying pan and heat should be at medium. Pour a laddle of batter in the center of the pan and watch for bubbles to form. Once the edges becomes solid and slightly translucent. Flip the pancake and press down lightly with your spatula. In about 20-30 seconds remove from pan and place on serving plate. Repeat till no batter is left.

This reipe makes about 6-7 mini pancakes or 2-3 large pancakes. Which is great for 1 person.

Hope you enjoy my recipe; let me know how you liked it in the comments below.

Cheers,

Food & Lifestyle: August Empties

This was an impulse buy and it was love at first crunch! A nice spicy thai basil curry aroma made with different types of spuds and pumpkin. I love the crunch factor of these chips as it reminds me of kettle cooked chips a lot. I have repurchased this 4 times now and will continue to purchase it in the future.
Add a tablespoon to smoothies, use as cooking oil, use as butter spread and make salad dressings with it. I love this product for cooking and beauty reasons. Moisturize from the inside out. If you would like to know what use this product for in the beauty side, check out my other blog: maydaydesigns.blogspot.ca
For the person that likes efficiency and quick breakfasts. This is the PBJ to grab, no need to clean your knife off or using two knives to make a single PBJ sandy. It's all swirled in one. Love this idea!
