Pancakes can be a real crowd pleaser with the family. Unfortunately, they can also be laden with sugar and refined flours. With flourless pancakes you don’t have to worry about the refined flour (because it doesn’t contain ANY flour!) and it is 100% gluten-free! Chances are, you might have most of the other ingredients already.
The following recipe comes from our dietitian Stephanie Biggs and is sure to be a hit this summer with your family. Including fruit in your breakfast is a great way to energize your day. Pair these pancakes with some scrambled eggs or low-fat greek yogurt for a balanced meal. Enjoy!
