Paleo Chocolate Chip Pancakes
These easy pancakes have easily become my kid’s favorite. No syrup needed, as these are delicious straight up! My kids enjoy them for breakfast, but I usually make a double batch and freeze the leftovers that they can pull out and toast for a snack or a busy morning breakfast.
Substitutions: I use a mixture of flours to get the right texture and taste, you can’t use just ONE of these flours as they all behave so differently and the combination really gives this the right texture. But, you can always use 1 1/4 c. cassava flour if you are looking for a nut-free single flour option, vs. the three-flour combo. Yes, you can use coconut milk or some other dairy-free milk instead of almond, but keep in mind this will change the consistency and amount. Remember, pancake batter should be like a thick but still drippy/pourable cake mix. Add milk substitution slowly until you reach that consistency.
