            Tigernut Flour Pancakes

              Tigernut Flour Pancakes

              GF, Refined Sugar free

              Happily serves 4-6

              ALL ORGANIC INGREDIENTS 

              • 4 organic cage free eggs
              • ½ cup tigernut flour
              • ¼ cup coconut flour
              • ½ cup dairy free milk (coconut milk)
              • ½ tsp cinnamon
              • ½ tsp raw apple cider vinegar
              • ¼ tsp baking soda
              • Properly measuring the flours is key to the recipe. Stir the tigernut flour with a fork to “loosen” it, then dip in the measuring cup and level the top with a knife. Measure the coconut flour the same way. Combine the flours and eggs to create a smooth batter. Mixing these ingredients first allows you to smooth out the clumps of tigernut flour. Add remaining ingredients, stir until combined.  Cook pancakes as usual

              You can store leftover pancakes in an airtight container in the fridge for a few days. The leftover pancakes actually make a delicious “bread” for grain free sandwiches!
