Today's sweet treat is an Almond flavored pancake. For a healthy but slightly more expensive recipe you could use actual almonds - i will add a note on variations after initial recipe.
Ingredients
3/4 gluten-free flour
1/2 milk or dairy alternative
1 tsp mixed spice
1/2 almond essence
1 tsp golden syrup.
Directions
1 mix flour and spice in a bowl.
2 heat milk until it is warm - not hot! Stir the golden syrup and almond essence into the warm milk.
3 Stir the milk mixture into bowl until you have a thick batter.
4 Fry in oil until cooked - turning the pancake when you see 'bubbles' on the uncooked surface.
Variations
Using Marzipan
Grate up roughly a tbs of mazipan (depends on taste at this point) and mix it in at stage 3.
Using chopped almonds
Straight forward option - mix in at stage 3.
Almond puree
Soak a handful of fresh almonds in water overnight. Puree in a blender with a small amount of milk alternative of your choice. Mix into recipe as normal. Please note that this option adds to the liquid content of the pancake batter, so you therefore may wish to adjust accordingly.
