Gluten Free Blueberry Burst Pancakes (For One)!

You will not believe how good these are! They are our newest obsession. We usually have them post workout or for breakfast...okay, really whenever we want! They are SO easy to make and turn out so fluffy! They are clean eating approved and can easily be made gluten free by using gluten free oats. Pair these with a protein shake or eggs for a complete meal! The following recipe is one serving and usually makes 2-3 pancakes. This recipe can be easily doubled for two people.

GLUTEN FREE BLUEBERRY BURST PANCAKES
 

Ingredients:

• 1/3 cup gluten free oat flour
• 3 Tbsp unsweetened vanilla almond milk
• 3 Tbsp pasteurized egg whites
• 1/4-1/2 cup frozen organic blueberries
• 1 tsp coconut oil, melted (plus a small amount to coat the pan)
• 1/4 tsp pure vanilla extract (avoid HFCS)
• 1 Tbsp Stevia in the Raw
• less than 1/4 tsp baking powder
• less than 1/4 tsp salt

Directions:

1. Spread light coat of coconut oil over pan and turn on medium-high heat

2. Combine all ingredients in a mixing bowl using a fork or whisk

3. Once pan is heated, add pancake batter to pan

4. Cook until heated through and slightly brown, approx 2-4 min on each side

5. Top with syrup or honey, if desired (they are really good without any extra toppings)

This usually makes 3 pancakes for me but you can add more almond milk if you don't want yours as fluffy and it could make more. Best of all, this is one serving!

Gluten-Free Cinnamon Rolls

Have you tried our Guilt Free Cinnamon Roll recipe? If you like that, you are going to LOVE this one!

Here goes...

Eat Clean Gluten Free Cinnamon Rolls

Ingredients:

Dough:

• 1/2 c gluten free oat flour
• 1/3 c almond flour
• 1/4 c arrowroot flour 
• 2 TBSP coconut palm sugar OR demerara sugar
• 4 tsp baking powder
• 1 tsp sea salt, finely ground
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• 4 TBSP coconut oil, room temperature 
• 3/4 c unsweetened almond milk

Filling:

• coconut oil, room temperature
• 1/4 c stevia, powdered
• 3 TBSP cinnamon

Directions:

1. Begin making the dough first. Combine dry ingredients in a food processor and pulse to combine and create a softer flour mixture, on and off for 45-60 seconds. Add wet ingredients and mix to combine.

2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

3. Combine filling ingredients in a small bowl.

4. Place dough on a floured surface (I would suggest using the arrowroot flour for this) and roll out to flatten to approximately 1/4"-1/3" thickness. Try to roll the dough in a rectangular shape.

5. Brush a small amount of coconut oil evenly on the dough. 

6. Sprinkle the filling mixture evenly across the moistened dough.

7. Roll the dough starting at one end until it is all contained. Using a pizza wheel, cut the dough into approximately 8-9 cinnamon rolls.

8. Place on a cookie sheet approximately 1.5" apart OR in a round pan, close together for softer cinnamon rolls.

9. Bake approximately 14 minutes.

Makes 8-9 cinnamon rolls.
