How to Make Heart-Shaped Pancakes
Ingredients (Makes about 10 pancakes)
- ¾ cup Simple Mills almond flour pancake mix
- 1 tbsp Chosen Foods avocado oil
- 1.5 tbsp raw milk or MALK organics
- 1 Vital Farms egg
- 2 strawberries & 3 raspberries, finely chopped & smashed
- 2 tbsp chia seeds
- Grass-fed butter or ghee (such as Kerrygold) for cooking
Instructions
1️⃣ Mix the batter – In a bowl, combine all ingredients and stir well until smooth.
2️⃣ Heat your skillet – Place a pan over medium heat and add a little grass-fed butter or ghee.
3️⃣ Shape the pancakes – Use a spoon to pour the batter onto the skillet in a heart shape (tip: make a small “V” shape and let it spread).
4️⃣ Cook until golden – Let the pancakes cook for 2-3 minutes on one side, then carefully flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes.
5️⃣ Serve & enjoy – Drizzle with cinnamon maple syrup, add extra berries, or top with your favorite nut butter!
Tips for the Perfect Heart Pancakes
💡 No heart-shaped mold? Just use a spoon to shape a rough “V” as you pour the batter—it doesn’t have to be perfect!
💡 Want them extra fluffy? Let the batter sit for 5 minutes before cooking so the chia seeds can absorb moisture.
💡 Make it dairy-free – Use coconut oil instead of butter and a dairy-free milk like almond or oat.
