Apparently I’m on a pancake roll! This week I have a chocolatey pancake option for you – who doesn’t love that?! With just a handful of ingredients, whip up this batter and have a tasty breakfast in no time!
Brownie Batter Pancakes http://chocolatecoveredkatie.com/2011/08/09/double-chocolate-brownie-batter-pancakes
- ¼ cup almond flour
- ¼ tsp baking powder
- 1 Tbsp Special Dark cocoa or dutch cocoa (both unsweetened)
- 1½ packets Splenda (or 1 tbsp + 1 tsp)
- 1/16 tsp salt
- 1½ tbsp oil
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 5 ½ Tbsp almond milk
Mix dry ingredients very well, then add wet. Spray a pan or griddle with nonstick spray, and make pancakes! Counts as 1 fat.
I encourage you to eat your largest meal earlier in the day to give your body all day to burn the calories. For bootcampers, as we’re on Level 1, this means Meal #1 with protein/carb/fat. Notice there are no eggs or other protein in this recipe (blogger is vegan) so serve this with a protein source like a couple Omega-3 eggs cooked just how you like them! Get your carb from some yummy fruit like the raspberries in my picture.
More to come next Friday, NGPT family. Until then, feast like brownies, feast like breakfast, and as always…FEAST ON!!!
