Spelt pancakes with fresh berries

Written By Amanda Grech

Great for a weekend treat, these pancakes are naturally higher in protein by using higher quality spelt flour and increasing the egg compared to traditional pancake mix. Serve with lots of fresh strawberries for a boost in your daily vitamin C intake which may help prevent Type 2 diabetes.

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup of self-raising flour (spelt)

  • 1 eggs

  • 1/3 cup milk
