- Dash of vanilla
- 1 large egg
- 1 Tsp. canola or grapeseed oil
- 1 Tbsp chia seeds
- 1 Cup sifted AP (all-purpose) flour
- 1 Tbsp. baking powder
- 1/4 Tsp My Sage Gourmet Herbs de Provence (or sea salt)
- 1 Tsp. finely chopped walnuts
- 1 Tbsp oil grapeseed (plus a little extra in case you need to coat the pan a bit more between batches) OR use cooking spray
- 1/2 Cup fresh blueberries (if in season in your area)
- Real unsalted butter
- Maple Syrup for topping (as you wish)
Instructions
- n medium bowl, combine coconut and almond milks, sugar, vanilla and egg-

- Set aside at least 5 minutes to allow chia seeds to become gelatinous.
- In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt and walnuts. Stir to combine.
- Gently add dry mixture to the wet mixture, using a rubber spatula, mixing only until combined. Do not overmix or you will lose the fluff in your fluffy pancakes.
- Heat a large skillet or griddle to medium-high, allowing it to heat up for one minute, Then add oil or cooking spray. NOTE: We use a "Misto." These little gizmos are a great way to use a minimal amount of oil when cooking atop your stove.
- Cook pancakes on 1 side until you see little bubbles all around the edges. Flip over and cook over side for another 2-3 minutes depending on how thick your pancakes are. Note: If your pancakes seem a little too dark when you flip them, reduce the heat just a smidge.
- Top with blueberries, butter and syrup as you wish
