Cheers to the Pancake!

There are two types of people in this world, Pancake lovers and waffle lovers. I personally like both myself but some people are really particular when it comes to their breakfast. Everyone in my house prefer waffles over pancakes, but are willing to eat pancakes if its a “good gourmet pancake”. Well let me tell you my friends, I got the recipe to a good gourmet pancake. My pancake recipe is so good, my waffle loving family request me to make these pancakes just about weekly. They are so yummy, satiating and full of good fiber, fats and nutrients. Its practically everything but the kitchen sink in these pancakes but i just call them my banana almond oat pancakes.

So what’s in the pancakes you ask?  Well the most important yet so basic ingredient needed for the pancakes is pancake mix. It can be organic  if you like but for mines i used a generic store brand buttermilk pancake mix. I than sliced some bananas and mashed them to small pieces.

But i didn’t stop there, i added just about everything i had on hand in my pantry.

First I milled a handful of dry ingredients in my Nutribullet  until it became a fine powder and mix it in with the pancake mix such as :

• Flaxseeds
• Chia seeds
• Raw rolled oats
• Raw unsalted almonds

Than for taste, i than added a few spices such as:

• Powdered ginger
• Cinnamon
• Nutmeg
• Vanilla extract

Mix everything with a few cups of water, and followed the direction on the pancake batter box. The end result being a gourmet pancake that is out of this world filled with fiber and nutrients.   Cheers to the pancake! lol

FYI: If you have a waffle maker, You can still have a good gourmet waffle with this recipe too.
