At one point, we thought we may need to eliminate eggs as well. so mom was on a journey to find a light and fluffy pancake recipe.

Most of my recipes are just tossing ingredients together and coming up with something amazing my family loves! No eggs and no dairy? That may be a little more of a challenge but mom did come up with an amazing pancake recipe that has no egg and no dairy. How did this amazing pancake recipe become so light and fluffy, well einkorn flour was the key to a lighter pancake.

Einkorn flour is a light ancient grain that has a slight nutty flavor and along with the flavors of coconut oil and the sweetness of pure maple syrup , these pancakes make a wonderful breakfast any day of the week and can be whipped up in only a few minutes.
