I can't find your flaxseed pancake recipe. Can you re-post it here
please?


I expect the original's morphed somewhat - I used to use a recipe from
Uncle Enrico, which was just a couple of T's of ground flax seed, an
egg, and enough water to make it a good texture.

These days I use up the last couple of Ts of my cereal mix in the same
way - that's about half-and-half flax seed balanced with ground
brazils and almonds, wheatgerm, coconut, maybe some sunflower or
pumpkin seeds, cinnamon to taste. Hmmm - breakfast time : )


I still can't get my head around using it as a cereal but as a pancake,
yes
Thanks.

Heres Uncle Enrico's post from 13/03/2006:


I've tweaked the recipe and made a few changes. This is the updated
version.
I've reduced the amount of Tofu and added allspice. Asterisks mark the
changes.

Diabetic Friendly Pancakes
Low Carb:

Makes four 3 ½ inch pancakes
10-12 grams of net carb approximately

Ingredients:

5 to 6 Tbsp. Soy flour (Whole Foods market)
3 Tbsp. Tofu (soft) *
1/4 cup Egg Beaters or 1 whole egg
3 Oz. (7 Tbsps.) Soy Milk-unsweetened, low carb 6 grams or less per cup
1/4 Tsp. Cinnamon
1/4 Tsp. Allspice *
pinch of salt
2 dashes of ground nutmeg
3 packets of Splenda

Topping:
Maple Grove Farms Cozy Cottage Sugar Free Syrup.
Or food process half frozen blueberries or strawberries to create a fruit
sorbet topping. ( The fruit sorbet will add carbs)


Directions:

Using a food processor, blend all ingredients except for the syrup.
Spoon batter into a non-stick frying pan coated with canola oil.

Cook at very low heat and covered for approximately 3 minutes and then
flip
the cakes. Keep checking to avoid burning. Before flipping, the top of
the
uncooked side of the cake should lose its shine and look dull. Don't
expect
to see bubbling.

Note: you may have to adjust either the amount of soy milk or the soy
flour
to get the batter to spread properly.

Enjoy!
