Some of my favorites so far are:
OAT CREPES on DAY 8
Makes pancakes for one person! Double the recipe if you want to share it ;)
Ingredients:
1 cup of gluten free oats blended into a fine flour meal
1 cup almond milk
1 egg
1 tablespoon of maple syrup or honey
AND...
Extra Virgin Coconut Oil for cooking
Maple Syrup for serving
Action:
1. Mix all ingredients either in a BOWL or high speed blender like the Vitamix. The batter should be a smooth consistency. Add more oats if you want thick pancakes.
2. Heat oil in a pan and when it is hot pour the batter. Turn over once you see bubbles appear on one side.
3. Serve with fresh fruit, CHOCOLATE DIPPING SAUCE, cacao powder, maple syrup, crushed nuts, finely grounded coconut! Get creative!
This recipe was designed by Liana Werner-Gray.
CHOCOLATE DIPPING SAUCE on day 5.
