Ingredients

• Organic butter or coconut oil (for greasing the parchment paper)
• 1⁄4 cup Natural Grocers® Brand Gluten-Free Pancake and Waffle Mix
• 1 1⁄2 teaspoons arrowroot powder
• 4 Natural Grocers Brand Regenerative Organic Pasture-Raised Eggs, yolks separated from whites
• 2 tablespoons organic milk (dairy-free works too)
• 1 teaspoon organic vanilla extract
• 1 tablespoon Natural Grocers Brand Bulk Organic Coconut Sugar
• 1⁄4 teaspoon Natural Grocers Brand Bulk Cream of Tartar

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 325°F and place a baking sheet inside. Grease a piece of parchment paper to fit the baking sheet.
2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the pancake mix and arrowroot powder.
3. Separate the egg yolks from the whites, placing the yolks in the mixing bowl with the flour mixture.
4. To the yolks and flour mixture, add milk and vanilla extract, mixing until thick and gritty.
5. In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites until foamy. Add coconut sugar and cream of tartar, continuing to beat until stiff peaks form.
6. Gently fold a third of the egg whites into the batter, then incorporate the remaining whites until no streaks remain, ensuring the mixture stays airy.
7. Remove the preheated baking sheet from the oven, place the greased parchment paper on it, and dollop the batter onto the sheet to form pancakes.
8. Bake for 16 minutes until golden brown.
9. While baking, prepare desired toppings for immediate plating upon removing the pancakes from the oven.
10. Plate the pancakes, add toppings, and serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
