Gluten Free and Vegan Flax Pancakes

These vegan and gluten free pancakes are the most killer sweet and savory pancakes I have ever devoured; with the nutty hints of flavor from the flaxseeds mixed with the sweet and crisp hints of coconut. With pancakes like these, breakfast might be coming a new favorite food course!

2/3 cup rice flour

1/4 cup coconut sugar

3 Tbs potato starch

3 Tbs corn starch

6 Tbs ground flaxseed 

6 Tbs water

2 tsp baking powder

1/4 tsp salt

1 1/4 cup almond milk

1/4 cup coconut oil, melted

Mix 4 Tbs of ground flax seed with 6 Tbs water and set to the side for at least 3 minutes. Mix together all dry ingredients in a bowl. Add milk, coconut oil, and the water and flaxseed mixture, and wisk all ingredients together. Preheat your griddle, and pour batter to make pancakes. Allow pancakes to cook until small bubbles appear, then flip to cook other side until golden brown. Transfer to a plate, smother with syrup or fresh fruit & devour!

Overnight Coconut Chai Oatmeal

Oatmeal has been my favorite breakfast since I was a little girl. But I have grown far away from the instant sugar filled oats. This vegan sweet yet spicy chai oatmeal is a great way to start the day, especially when you don't have to wake up and make it! Throw all the ingredients into a glass bowl with a lid and put it in the fridge over night. When you wake up everything is ready, just heat up and devour!

1 cup steel-cut oats (or which ever oats you prefer)

1 cup rice milk

2 Tbs. chia seeds (optional)

1/2 tsp vanilla extract

1/4 tsp ground ginger

1/2 tsp cinnamon

pinch of nutmeg

1/2 Tbs maple syrup

1 Tbs Spectrum Chia and Flax Oil Twister in Coconut flavor

1 Tbs shredded coconut (optional)

Mix oats, milk, chia sees, all the spices, maple syrup, Chia and Flax Twister, in a glass jar/bowl with a lid.  Close jar, and refrigerate overnight.

Open lid and stir and if you want it warm, zap it i the micro or heat it on the stove just to get it warm. Or just eat cold! :) Sprinkle the top with the shredded coconut and whatever else gets your belly happy in the morning! Devour!
