Grain free pancakes (and grain free "flour" mix)- recipe

Grain Free Pancakes

"flour mix"
1 cup chia seeds
2 cups almond (or other nut) meal
3 cups ground flax meal
1 1/2 cups date sugar (or other dried sweetener)

Pancakes
Dry:
1 1/2 cups flour mix
1 cup tapioca starch/sweet potato starch 50/50 mix (any starch should work)
1/2 tablespoon baking powder
pinch of salt

Wet:
3 eggs, whisked smooth
1 cup milk

Directions:
Mix wet into dry.  Stir well.  Let sit a couple minutes.

Heat skillet with plenty of oil/butter/fat.  Once hot, pour in mix by about 1/2 cup at a time.  Turn heat to medium high (these take longer to cook than regular pancakes and will burn faster, so lower heat for longer time does the trick).

Once bubbles break through the pancake, it is time to turn them.  Flip them and cook another minute or two.

Pour in a bit more oil and do the next batch.

I had mine with some butter and honey.  Tasted delicious.  My son, who is not grain-free, also was willing to eat them and said "not too bad mom".  :)
