- Total time: 20 Min
- Difficulty: Low
- Serves:6 people
Ingredients:
- 2 large eggs
230ml unsweetened almond drink
1 level tsp sweetener granules, plus 1 level tsp to serve
1 tsp vanilla extract
50g porridge oats
1 level tsp baking powder
50g self-raising flour
Low-calorie cooking spray
Generous handful of mixed fresh berries, to serve (we used strawberries, blackberries, blueberries and raspberries)
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 150°C/fan 130°C/gas 2.
- Separate the eggs into 2 mixing bowls and, using a fork, whisk the almond drink, sweetener and vanilla extract into the yolks. Stir in the oats and baking powder and leave to soak for 20 minutes.
- Sift the flour over the oaty mixture and fold it in. Whisk the egg whites into soft peaks and gently fold into the oats using a large metal spoon.
- Spray a large non-stick frying pan with low-calorie cooking spray and put it over a medium heat. When it’s hot, add a few large spoonfuls of the batter, spaced well apart (you’re aiming to make 12 pancakes altogether). Cook for 2 minutes or until bubbles start to appear in the top of the pancakes and the undersides are nicely golden brown. Flip the pancakes over and cook for another 2 minutes. Put them on a plate, cover with a clean tea towel and keep warm in the oven while you cook the rest. Top with the berries and sprinkle over the extra sweetener to serve.
- We also served our stack with a sweet berry sauce. Blitz 50g blueberries and 50g raspberries in your food processor along with 1 level tbsp sweetener granules (if you don’t have a food processor, mash them with a fork or potato masher). Press through a fine sieve into a bowl, discarding the seeds in the sieve.
- Pour the sauce into a jug and chill until needed. Count 1 Syn per level tbsp.
