Being healthy and raising a healthy family doesn’t mean you have to forgo pancakes. These chia almond pancakes are a personal favourite and I love that they’re healthy and easy to bring on the go. What I love about them is that they are high in quality protein, low in sugar and full of natural fibre and healthy fats …perfect for mornings you feel like something sweet. They are dairy, gluten and grain free and especially delicious topped with sliced banana & almond butter.

Chia seeds are rich in nourishing essential fatty acids, high in natural plant fibre, plant protein as well as minerals, such as calcium, phosphorus and manganese. The nutrition qualities of chia seeds translate into numerous health benefits including boosting energy, stabilising blood sugar levels, improving digestion, lowering cholesterol and improving overall heart health, all while also nourishing our beauty bits – our hair, skin & nails.
