5 to 6TablespoonsCaramel Chai Tea concentrate from Zhena's Gyspy Tea *non-dairy milk will work here
Instructions
Preheat a non-stick skillet or pan. If using an electric griddle, set your temp to 350 degrees.
In a small bowl, whisk together the protein powder, brown rice flour, flax meal, baking powder, and salt.
Add in the Caramel Chai Tea Concentrate and mix well.
Allow the batter to rest for about 2 minutes to allow the batter to thicken and the flax to gel. Don't skip this step! Your pancakes will not hold together otherwise.
You don't want the batter to be too thin (watch the video to see exactly how it should look).
Pour the batter onto the hot pan in 3 pancakes and cook until the top begins to puff up a bit and the underside is browned.
Flip the pancakes and cook on the other side until lightly browned. Make sure the tops spring back when lightly touched.
You can eat these right away or you can let them cool a bit. The middle of these pancakes will set up better as they cool.
Serve with jam, fruit, agave, nut butter, or maple syrup. Enjoy!
