Ok! This is THE BEST Paleo recipe ever! I have made this recipe now at least 5 times so I know it is consistently delicious! I always make a triple batch so that we have leftovers. My husband spends alot of time in his truck and he takes 2 in the morning, puts them in a sandwich bag and munches on them without syrup! Our kids love them, too! Incredible!
I had some blueberries in the fridge so I searched and found this recipe! I’ve printed it because IT’S A KEEPER! The texture is awesome! Flavor, amazing! We will be keeping this in our rotation.
I’m so happy you guys enjoyed it! 🙂
Can I substitute coconut milk for the almond milk? Â
Yup! Any non-dairy milk should work.
I seriously can’t believe these are paleo. And don’t blueberries just make the most beautiful addition to a stack of pancakes? Love it!
Wow, do these pancakes ever look light and fluffy! I don’t have any dietary restrictions, but I would totally be game to make these. I actually have all those flours kickin’ around the pantry.
