This morning I made some Almond Flour pancakes from a recipe that I found on Mark’s Daily Apple. Although they weren’t too bad, they were definitely not what I was expecting. That didn’t stop me from  eating them all along with the batch I made for my wife though. I figured at 40grams of protein, I couldn’t go wrong and I didn’t think they tasted too bad. My wife thought they tasted like a protein bar and that was why I liked them. She is usually right and this time was no exception. They did taste like a protein bar.  Maybe I should call them Almond Flour Protein Bars. I could then add chocolate.

Here is the recipe if anyone would like to give it a try.

• 1 cup almond meal
• 3 large eggs
• 1/8 tsp vanilla extract
• 1/8 tsp ground cinnamon
• Mix together.
• Pour batter onto a buttered or greased skillet.
• Cook over medium heat until both sides are golden brown.
