Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons Flaxseed meal
- 1 large Egg
- 2 tablespoons Almond milk (unsweetened)
- 1 teaspoon Stevia or low-carb sweetener
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Cinnamon (optional)
- 1 teaspoon Butter or coconut oil (for cooking)
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, combine flaxseed meal, baking powder, and cinnamon (if using). Mix well to ensure there are no clumps.
Add the egg, almond milk, stevia, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Whisk until a smooth batter forms. Let the batter sit for 2 minutes to thicken slightly.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the butter or coconut oil, swirling to coat the pan evenly.
Pour the batter onto the skillet, forming two or three small pancakes. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on one side, until the edges start to set and bubbles form on the surface.
Carefully flip the pancakes using a spatula and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Remove the pancakes from the skillet and serve warm. Optionally, garnish with sugar-free syrup, fresh berries, or a dollop of whipped cream.
