Gluten Free Dairy Free Buckwheat Pancakes

Buckwheat pancakes- Gf, DF (serves 4)

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cup of buckwheat flour

  • 1 cup of almond milk

  • 4 eggs

  • 3 tbsp of Morlife Monk Fruit Extract

  • 1 tbsp of vanilla extract

  • 1 tbsp of cinnamon (Ceylon)

  • 1 tsp of nutmeg powder

  • 1 tsp of baking powder (aluminium free- organic)

  • Coconut oil or dairy free butter for frying the pancakes

  • PLUS your desired toppings, I used sugar free dark choc chips, crushed nuts, coconut cream and banana with Nuttvia melted over the top.

Method

  1. Mix all ingredients in a large bowl and whisk until the batter is smooth.

  2. Preheat the pan on low to medium heat and add a splash of coconut oil or dairy free butter.

  3. Ladle the amount of pancake batter desired onto the pan and allow to cook until golden brown.

  4. Flip over the pancake and brown the other side.

  5. Repeat the previous step with the remaining batter.

  6. Serve with your favourite toppings, we love pure maple syrup, berries, nuts and coconut cream.

Crumbed Tuna Balls (serves 4)

Ingredients

  • 1 medium Sweet Potato (mashed)

  • 1/2 cup nutritional yeast (or parmesan cheese)

  • 2 eggs

  • 1 large tin tuna (in olive oil)

  • 3 heaped tbsp Italian herbs

  • 1 heaped tbsp crushed garlic

  • 1 cup GF bread crumbs and an extra 2 eggs for the crumb coating

Method

  1. Mix all ingredients in a large bowl except the bread crumbs and 2 of the extra eggs.

  2. In another bowl whisk 2 eggs with a fork for crumbing.

  3. Put your bread crumbs in a separate bowl as well, and set up a crumbing station. Your crumbing station should have your bowl of mixture, bowl of egg, then bowl of crumbs next to a large oven tray.

  4. Roll the mix into bite size balls, dip them into the egg, then the crumb, then place onto the oven tray. I did this twice to get a thicker coating. Continue until all the Tuna Balls are crumbed and on the tray.

  5. Spray with olive oil (spray bottle with olive oil, not the butane gas oil). Bake until golden and serve with your favourite salad.
