I love my pancakes (well more particularly crepes) on pancake day so was not looking forward to forgoing them, on this my 1st year with LADA so I went on an Internet hunt and found a website with low carb pancake recipes ( www.wholesomeyum.com)


It may not suit anyone who doesn’t like to use artificial sweetener, but I tried this recipe and thought it was great, and with lemon and a little Truvia sweetener sprinkled on them, they did the job!!


Ingredients I used

3 small Eggs

80-90g Mascarpone cheese (I used a third of a 250g tub)

1 level teaspoon Truvia sweetener

OPTIONAL

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (Ceylon if you can get it)

(I got 4 crepes out of this mix)
 
I made my pancakes ( 2 medium sized ) by 25gm of coconut flour, an egg , a teaspoon of double cream mixed all together and then added some water to make the batter (I guess you could use milk instead of cream and water)- cooked them in olive oil - lemon juice when cooked - was very acceptable replacement to a normal pancake and I needed no sweeter as I find coconut flour quite sweet.
