Farmer's Cheese Almond Pancakes

I wanted to incorporate Farmer’s Cheese into my kids diet. It is great source of probiotics and protein. It is 99% lactose free. And it includes nutrients such as calcium, phosphorus, protein, and B vitamins. It is much healthier than cottage cheese. (1)(2)

Eggs, almond flour, vanilla extract, cinnamon, flaxseed are additional ingredients that are very nutritious, making it a powerful breakfast food.

Ingredients
  

  • 2 Eggs

  • 1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract optional
  • 3/4 cup Almond Flour
  • 1 tbs Arrowroot Flour optional
  • 1/3 tsp Baking Powder
  • 1/2 tsp Baking Soda
  • 2 tsp Cinnamon powder optional
  • 2 tbsp Farmer's Cheese
  • 1 tbs Coconut oil or Ghee

Instructions
 

  • Whisk together eggs, milk, vanilla extract and maple syrup.
  • Add all dry ingredients and mix together.

  • Mix everything well.
  • Melt ghee or coconut oil on a skillet.
  • Scoop about two tablespoons of the mix on the skillet.
  • Cook about 1 minute on each side.

Notes

For easy making I stir everything with a fork in the same bowl. This way I can make it quick in the morning. Or I make the mix a day before and store it in the fridge.
Pancakes are great with maple syrup or any jam (my favorite is prune butter). Having a hot cacao with it, makes it a great meal.
