Grain-free, Almond Gluten-Free Pancakes Recipe

gluten-free pancakesI love going out to breakfast with my son because he is sure to order a stack of pancakes, which means I will get to finish his plate.  I love pancakes, but they aren’t very healthy, and I am avoiding gluten most of time.  Here is a recipe I tried yesterday for gluten-free pancakes.

Quinoa is a seed and is a plant-based source of protein. It is not a grain. It is more closely related to chard, spinach, and beets. It is complete protein.1)http://ancientharvest.com/ancient-grains/organic-quinoa/ You may be able to find it locally grown, as we can.  Quinoa flour makes these pancakes delicious and grain-free. The additon of the almonds makes them packed with protein!  You’ll never miss the grain of traditonal pancakes and can eat these guilt-free.

This recipe is adapted from Dr. Hyman.
