Chocolate Blueberry Pancakes (made with unrefined brown rice flour).

I think I may develop a pancake addiction.... Addiction sounds negative and these pancakes are far from bad so lets call it a healthy pancake habit :) <3

Looking at it you would think that it was loaded with sugar and super-sweet but you will be surprised with how little natural sweetening these pancakes have. The pancakes themselves are sweetened with a couple of dates and the easy to make choc sauce is sweetened with 1 teaspoon of honey.

Wow, was I blown away by this creation. Was exactly what I needed this morning as it was too cold for a smoothie. It was like eating a creamy spongecake with a hint of chocolate sweetness but instead of telling myself "oh I could have done without that" i thought "oooooooooooooh I will definitely be having more of these for breakfast and dam I want to make these for my friends and fam!"

Brown rice flour pancakes are full of nutritional goodness and tastes amazing - can't go wrong ;)

4) heat up coconut oil in frying pan on medium heat and add a heaped teaspoon of batter in to form pancake (I make 3 in a pan to allow room for flipping)
