The alternative stack!
I’m very much about American style pancakes. Since eating all the sourdough for breakfast pancakes have taken a bit of a back seat for me after having featured every other day, alternating with homemade waffles for quite some time!
Pancake Tuesday is actually much more of a novelty now that I haven’t had pancakes in what feels like forever. Or at least I hadn’t until I whipped up this stack.
I’ve loved playing around with cassava flour and when it comes to pancakes I’ve found it works much better when either combined with another flour, in this instance almond flour, or you add a puree to the mix like banana or apple sauce.
The combination of the almond and cassava flour is my favourite to date. A thick and fluffy pancake with a cake like crumb! The almond flour also mellows out the cassava flour flavour which is quite distinct in itself.
Happy Pancake Tuesday folks….even a little in advance!
