Instructions
Pancakes
Make the flax egg by stirring the ground flax into the water. Let sit for a few minutes to make a gel.
In a medium bowl, make the buttermilk substitute by combining the apple cider vinegar and almond milk. Let sit for a few minutes.
In another bowl, combine all the dry ingredients (flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt).
Add the maple syrup, flax egg, applesauce, and lemon juice to the almond milk mixture.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and whisk until smooth and combined.
Stir in the poppy seed and lemon zest.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle to medium. Pour batter, about 1/4 cup at a time, and cook a few minutes on each side.
Blueberry Sauce
Combine blueberries, maple syrup, and lemon juice in a small saucepan over medium heat.
Whisk the cornstarch into the water. Add to the blueberries and bring to a boil, stirring.
Reduce heat and stir until thickened, about 3 minutes.
Notes
The blueberry sauce is excellent when added to yogurt, cheesecake, french toast, or ice cream. Plant-based, of course!
