PLANT BASED PANCAKES

PLANT BASED PANCAKES

So light and delicious, these will have you coming back for more, and more! I have tried making these crepes with a whole range of flours and each one has been successful. You can’t taste the addition of flaxseed but it adds much needed fibre and plant based, heart healthy omega 3 goodness. Cooking the crepes in coconut oil adds another level of scrumptiousness. Dress your crepes with traditional lemon and (coconut) sugar, or our personal favourites lemon and honey, or lemon and maple syrup. Add fresh fruits or homemade coulis when you have time, you won’t regret it 🙂
