PrintLow-Carb Flax Pancakes Recipe
You know what these taste like? Pancakes, that’s what. Way better for you, though, and far, far more filling.
- Yield: 12 pancakes 1x
- Category: Low-Carb
Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 1 cup flax seed meal
- 1 cup vanilla whey protein powder
- 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup oat flour (skip this if you want completely grain-free pancakes)
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 cup plain yogurt
- 2 eggs
- 25 drops liquid Stevia extract-try plain, vanilla, or English Toffee flavor-all would all be good here.
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine all the dry ingredients–everything from the flax seed meal through the cinnamon–and stir well to combine.
- Spray your biggest skillet (or a griddle) with non-stick cooking spray, and put it over medium-high heat. (If your skillet or griddle has a good non-stick surface–mine does–you can skip the cooking spray.) Let it heat while you…
- Whisk the yogurt, eggs and stevia together, then pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Whisk it up well, making sure there are no pockets of dry stuff left.
- When your skillet is hot enough that a drop of water will skitter across the surface, it’s time to cook! Scoop the batter with a ¼ cup measure. Fry the first side until the edges look dry, then flip and cook the other side.
- Serve with the topping of your choice; I like butter and low-sugar jelly.
