PB & J Blini
Serves 5
Ingredients
1/2 cup whole wheat flour or oat flour
1/2 cup almond flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
Salt
2 large eggs
1/2 cup plus 2 tbsp milk
1/4 cup natural peanut butter, almond butter or cashew butter
1/4 cup low-sugar jam of choice
1 tbsp oil or butter
Directions
Combine flours, baking soda, and a pinch of salt in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, gently beat eggs and stir in milk. Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and stir until smooth. Let batter rest for 10 minutes.
Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. By the tablespoonful, drop batter into pan and cook until edges begin to brown and bubbles form on the surface, about 2 minutes. Flip over and cook for 1 minute more, or until golden brown on the bottom. Repeat with remaining batter. You should have about 20 mini pancakes.
Spread 1 tsp each of nut butter and jam on 10 pancakes and top with remaining pancakes. Wrap in a piece of foil for transport.
