    Pancakes are everyone's favourite! This recipe using Coconut flour has to be tried to be believed how good it is! It is great for brekkie or brunch with eggs & sausages or even an afternoon snack with goat cheese & kiwi. If you follow a diabetic, gluten-free or Low Carb diet this recipe is for you and it scores low on the glycemic index. It only has 8 ingredients & fits my simply super easy to make criteria:

    • I use 2 tablespoons of mixture for each pancake

    • As with traditional pancakes, when bubbles form on the top of the batter, flip over & cook other side (Total cooking time varies 3 - 6 minutes)

    as long as you cook it yourself."

    I have made pancakes with and without ground flax seeds - both a hit! Really is a wholesome way to cook nutritious food for you and your family. Another healthy nutritious meal for any time of day ~ and a quick and easy "Good to-go" recipe. Time to start a new family tradition for Sunday brunch?
