Pecan Pancakes

1 cup fresh pecans
2 tbsp honey
1 egg
2 tbsp ground flaxmeal
2 tbsp rice protein powder
1/4 cup of Almond Milk plus more as needed

Add the pecans to the to the food processor. Process until finely ground but starting to cream up. Add to a medium sided bowl. Then add flaxmeal, protein powder, honey, egg and almond milk. Stir until together. Add extra Almond milk in 1 tbsp increments until the consistency of regular pancakes. Take a soup spoon and pour them on the griddle. When bubbles start rising (like regular pancakes) then flip to the other side.


Thanks to Patti Devlin for the idea on this! These are not traditional pancakes. They don't rises and are a bit chewier than regular pancakes. But they have NO FLOUR of any type and are high in protein. I ate about 5 of them because they are so small. This would make enough for 2 people! Enjoy & Share!!

Mom's Brownies

1 c white flour

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 c cocoa

2/3 c shortening

4 eggs

2 c sugar

2 tsp vanilla

1 c pecans (optional)

Grease and flour a 11X13 pan. Sift all the dry ingredients together. Cream the shortening and sugar. Add eggs and cream more. Gradually add all dry ingredients to the creamed mixture. Stir and then add vanilla and mix. (Add nuts if you are using them).

Bake at 350 for 25 to 30 minutes. The tops are crunchy and the middle is soft! They are my favorite.

This recipe came from Mom (Cheryl White) and spoiled me so that I don't like the boxed brownie mixes :)
