This is not a sponsored post…but I’m a sucker for a good pancake and when Sweet Pea Pantry said they wanted to send me some of their gluten free pancake mix to try I was of course intrigued! Especially because it features buckwheat and flax which are staples in my own pancakes.
I love making my own mixes and variations but this mix was so easy to use and produced some nice thick fluffy pancakes! I laced them with some dark chocolate chips and drowned them in peanut butter sauce… powdered peanut butter with oat milk. Paired with the fluffy chocolate chip pancakes, it was a match made in heaven.
You can use an egg or flax egg. I tried both and the egg definitely yielded slightly thicker pancakes but the flax egg version created a slightly softer pancake if a little thinner. I’m not sure which I preferred! My pancake preference changes like the weather.
You could totally flavour them up so many different ways but the base itself packs a nice flavour punch. Quinoa flour, buckwheat and teff… wholesome and delicious!
Some other ideas…
- Lemon and Poppy Seed
- Blueberry…served with maple and crispy bacon!
- Add a little matcha powder
- Cacao or cocoa powder…go double chocolate with chocolate chips!
- Beet powder, cacao or cocoa and vanilla for a red velvet snack!
The possibilities are endless!
