Snow day!

For those of you not familiar with New England weather, there is a saying that sums it up brilliantly: "If you don't like the weather, wait five minutes." Well, today on the first day of March we got our second snow day of the year. I don't think students realize that their teachers celebrate snow days as much as they do, if not more. In honor of hunkering down to wait out the storm, I decided to make pancakes. Growing up, our family would often start off a Saturday with pancakes and bacon or eggs. So needless to say, I have always been a breakfast person. One of my greatest cravings still after 3 years on SCD, is cereal. Pancakes would also be on that list if it weren't for a recipe I have found that is a brilliant substitute. The recipe comes from scdrecipe.com which is one of my favorite sites to get new recipes from. This morning I added fresh raspberries and a simple syrup (half honey, half water). Delicious.

Yazmin's Pancakes (with slight modifications)
1 cup almond flour
1 egg
3 Tablespoons SCD yogurt
1/4 t. baking soda (although mine was more like 1/3 t.)
1/4 t. salt (or a bit less to taste)
raspberries (any fruit will work... I like banana and pecans, or blueberries)

syrup
1/4 c. water
1/4 c. syrup

Mix ingredients and pour  batter onto a greased electric griddle. I cooked them on a low temp of about 300 F.  If using a stove, I would set it on a medium-low temp otherwise they burn too easy. Serve with syrup and/or a dollop of SCD yogurt.
