Start your day on a delicious note with our Gluten-Free Blueberry Almond Pancakes. These fluffy delights are a perfect blend of almond flour and fresh blueberries, creating a symphony of flavors that dances on your palate. Top with a drizzle of pure maple syrup and a sprinkle of sliced almonds for an exquisite breakfast experience.
1. Prepare the Dry Ingredients:
In a large bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, almond flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
2. Prepare the Wet Ingredients:
In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, egg, melted butter (or coconut oil), and almond extract until well combined.
3. Combine the Mixtures:
Pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture and gently stir until just combined. It's okay if there are a few lumps.
4. Add Blueberries:
Gently fold in the fresh blueberries. Be careful not to overmix to prevent the blueberries from breaking.
5. Cook the Pancakes:
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. You can lightly grease it with butter or oil if needed.
6. Spoon the Batter:
For each pancake, scoop about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet. Use the back of the scoop to spread the batter slightly into a round shape.
7. Cook and Flip:
Cook the pancakes until you see bubbles forming on the surface and the edges look set. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
Note: Carefully flip the pancakes using a spatula and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until the other side is golden brown.
8. Serve:
Transfer the cooked pancakes to a serving plate. You can keep them warm in a preheated oven while you cook the remaining batter.
9. Top and Enjoy:
Serve the gluten-free blueberry almond pancakes warm with your favorite toppings, such as more fresh blueberries, a drizzle of maple syrup, a dollop of yogurt, or a sprinkle of chopped almonds.
These pancakes are a delightful and flavorful gluten-free breakfast treat. Enjoy your delicious homemade Gluten-Free Blueberry Almond Pancakes!

1. In a saucepan, bring water or milk to a boil. Add oats and cook according to package instructions.
2. Once cooked, top with nut butter, sliced bananas, chia seeds or flaxseeds, and a drizzle of honey or agave syrup.
Nut butter oatmeal is high in fiber and protein, which help keep you full, control cholesterol and blood glucose levels, and may even help prevent certain diseases such as diabetes, cancer, and heart disease.
1. In a glass or bowl, layer Greek yogurt, mixed berries, and gluten-free granola.
2. Drizzle with honey or maple syrup for sweetness.
3. Repeat the layers as desired. Enjoy your parfait with a spoon!
Greek yogurt eaten in the morning ensures protein intake right from the start of the day and keeps blood sugar levels at bay. The metabolism starts differently when you have breakfast with Greek yogurt as opposed to, say, a traditional Italian breakfast of cappuccino and pastry, which can make the body more sluggish.
1. Heat olive oil or cooking spray in a skillet over medium heat.
2. Add chopped vegetables and sauté until slightly tender.
3. In a bowl, whisk eggs, salt, and pepper. Pour into the skillet with vegetables.
4. Cook, stirring gently, until eggs are scrambled and cooked to your liking.
5. Top with fresh herbs before serving.
Getting enough protein in our diets is an important way of helping our body's health. Each egg contains about six grams of protein, as well as helpful amino acids. Getting our share of protein for the day can help with weight management, increase muscle mass, lower blood pressure and help our bones, as well.
1. Blend frozen berries, banana, spinach or kale, and almond milk until smooth.
2. Pour the smoothie into a bowl and top with sliced fruits, nuts, seeds, and shredded coconut.
The healthy fats in smoothie bowls, including those in almonds and coconut, keep you alert and energized. After a morning workout, a smoothie bowl is a great breakfast to eat. This healthy food gives you extra energy, allows your muscles to heal, and helps you remain awake all day.
