Best pancakes ever!!

This last weekend I was down at my mom and dads as we had a very dear family friend, who was more like family, pass away. I wanted to be there to help out as much as I could and one of the ways I know how to do that, is to make food. We had some of the family staying at my moms house so I figured breakfast would help the most. I wanted something easy but also something that had good reviews - my mom had warned me that one of them was pretty picky. The title of this blog post was the best ever pancakes, so I figured how could I go wrong with that. I tasted the batter and decided it was good but needed some vanilla & cinnamon. Then I tasted it again & was amazed at how good it was. The pancakes turned out even better.  Everyone loved them, so much so that they wanted the recipe. So I have to say that their blog post title was correct and this recipe will definitely stay in my rotation. Enjoy!! 😃

Blend (in a blender):
1 cup almond milk
1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar (optional, but helps for rising)
5 large eggs
1/4 cup -packed- almond flour (any brand)
1/2 cup coconut flour
1/2 cup arrowroot or tapioca flour (see note that follows*)
2 tablespoons coconut oil
2 tablespoons honey
3/4 teaspoon baking soda

*i added a 1/2tsp vanilla & cinnamon 

*Flax or chia meal won’t work in place of the arrowroot/tapioca here (I’ve tried). You can use another 1/4 cup of coconut flour in place of the arrowroot/tapioca, but just know that the recipe will not be the same.

To make:
1. Add some coconut oil to a pre-heated skillet.
2. Drop some of batter into the pan. Swirl the batter out with the back of the spoon to make the pancake larger. (I usually make four pancakes at a time in my largest skillet.)
3. Cook each side until pancake is cooked through.
