Cinnamon buckwheat pancakes with chocolate sauce

9th May 2016 by bos.kitchen 2 Comments

maca buckwheat cinnamon pancakes with chocolate sauce and fruitEveryone needs pancakes right? Or maybe it’s just me. I love the endless array of toppings you can use, plus they only take a few minutes to whip up. Perfect for a lazy Sunday morning or a post work out refuel. I’ve kept these gluten free, but feel free to sub the buckwheat for plain all purpose flour if that’s all you have.  I’ve added cinnamon and maca powder to the dry ingredients. Cinnamon is loaded with antioxidants and is a powerful anti inflammatory.  Did I also mention it tastes amazing in pancakes? I love it! Maca powder really energises me and has a powerful balancing effect. I like to have it when I have a big day ahead. It also has a slight caramel flavour, which lends itself perfectly to this recipe. The chocolate sauce is made with carob powder, which is even better for you than cacao, but much cheaper and has more of a rich, dark chocolatey flavour. It’s worth getting your hands on some if you can.

Recipe

Dry

  • 1 cup buckwheat flour*
  • 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • pinch of salt
  • 2 tsp Organic Burst maca powder (optional)
  • 1 tsp cinnamon

Wet

  • 1 mashed banana
  • 1 3/4 cup dairy free mylk (I used almond)
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • Juice of half a lemon
  • Coconut oil (for frying)

Chocolate sauce

  • 2 tsp carob powder
  • 2 tsp maple syrup
  1. Mix all dry ingredients together in a large mixing bowl.
  2. Combine all wet ingredients apart from the coconut oil in a jug and add to dry mix. Stir until combined, try not to over mix. You want the mixture to be thick, but very pourable, I always do a little test pancake first and then add more liquid if needed.
  3. Heat your pan up to medium heat and add a dab of coconut oil. Spoon in half a ladel of batter into the pan and fry until bubbles appear all over. Turn over and cook on the other side. Keep in a warm oven until you’ve made all your pancakes.
  4. To make the chocolate sauce, just mix carob powder and maple syrup. Mix well with a fork until the mixture is smooth and glossy.
  5. Serve warmed pancakes with chocolate sauce, fresh fruit and more maple syrup!

 

*If you don’t have buckwheat flour (it can be expensive, I never buy it), just make your own from buckwheat groats. Simply grind buckwheat groats in your blender until they turn into flour, it only takes a couple of minutes!

      Hello there, thank you very much, that’s so nice of you to say. I made this myself, although I really am no whizz at all when it comes to web design. This is the ‘canapé’ theme on WordPress, it’s free! It will do for now, until I work out what I’m doing!

Strawberry cookie dough bars 🍓🍪🍫 Secretly Strawberry cookie dough bars 🍓🍪🍫 Secretly loaded with healthy ingredients, gluten, nut and dairy free! I love making bliss balls but making the dough into bars and dunking them in chocolate takes them to a whole new level 🤌 The main ingredient is chickpeas 🤯 but trust me when I say they definitely don’t taste like chickpeas - just cookie dough! Using them like this is a great way to sneak in some extra veggie protein when the sweet cravings hit. 

Strawberry cookie dough bars

- 1 can chickpeas, drained, rinsed well
- 1 cup oats (can sub gluten free oats)
- 1/4 cup coconut sugar or 4 tbsp agave/maple syrup
- 4 squishy dates, pitted
- 2 tbsp ground flaxseed
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp tahini or nut butter
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 cup dark choc chips
- 1/4 cup freeze dried strawberries, finely chopped

Topping

- 1 cup dark chocolate, melted
- 2 tbsp freeze dried strawberries, crushed

Add chickpeas, oats, coconut sugar, dates, flaxseed, vanilla, tahini and salt to a food processor and combine until a cookie dough is formed - add a tbsp of water if it’s too dry or a little extra ground flaxseed or oats if it’s too squishy. Stir through the choc chips and strawberries. Press into a small, lined container and set aside in the freezer for at least 1 hr to firm up.
Cut into bars, dunk in melted chocolate and top with crushed dried strawberries.
