Snow Day Brunch: Cinnamon Flaxseed Pancakes!

Who doesn't love a snow day! It is beautiful outside and the snow is coming down harder every hour!

The only thing I wanted to do when I woke up was sit on my sofa and watch the Sex and the City marathon, while eating pancakes and drinking coffee.

So, that is what I'm doing.

These cinnamon flaxseed pancakes are super yummy and really easy to make!

Here is what you need:

• 2 cups of all purpose flour
• 2 1/2 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 2 cups almond milk (or soy milk, or skim milk; whatever you like)
• 1 egg (but instead of an egg, I like to use ground flaxseed meal, directions will in the steps below)
• 1 tbsp flaxseed
• 3 tbsp water
• 2 tbsp melted butter (or Earth Balance spread)
• 2 tbsp ground cinnamon

Directions:

• In a Kitchen Aid mixer, or by hand, whisk together your flour, baking powder, and salt, making sure you don't have any clumps.
• Add in your milk and butter.
• Instead of 1 egg, mix 1 tbsp of ground flaxseed meal with 3 tbsp of water in a small bowl, let it sit for 2 minutes. 
• Add in your ground flaxseed mixture and ground cinnamon.
• Pre-head your pan for a few minutes then spray it with non-stick cooking spray.
• Spoon a little bit of your batter onto the skillet (depending on how big or small you want your pancakes).
• Flip after approximately 30 seconds. 
• Repeat.
• ENJOY!

Note: Feel free to add in some chocolate chips! ;-)
