Political Playtime’s Political Pancakes

Here at Political Playtime, our eclectic crew gets together every morning, Monday thru Friday, (yes, we take weekends off, though, once in awhile, one of us will come in and post something) for our morning meeting to discuss our various projects, politicalplaytime.com being one of them. We push ideas back and forth, make future plans, and most importantly, we have breakfast, which we cook. We always have a combination of different items, pancakes being one of them. After all, what is a morning meeting without food.

We had been using those boxed pancake mixes with “pancake syrup” until MJ, one of our smarter members, read the ingredients. She stated that since all our other choices (all organic, non-gmo) were at least semi-healthy, there was no reason we could not do the same with the pancakes. Well, she did her research, and came up with our Political Playtime’s Political Pancakes. Fortunately, all the ingredients, with the exception of raw cow’s milk and goat’s milk, are available at our local supermarket and should be available at yours. Try it. This will be posted on our Twitter and facebook pages, feel free to post comments.

Ingredients

¼ cup organic buckwheat flour (Representing Democrats)…(If allergic  to pseudo cereals, compensate with one of the other two)

¼ cup organic almond flour or organic peanut flour (Representing Republicans)…( if allergic to nuts, compensate with one of the other two)

½ cup organic spelt flour (Representing the rest of us)

1 teaspoon baking powder

½ tablespoon organic sugar

½ or less, teaspoon sea salt

1 organic free range egg (for you vegans, try egg substitute, but we don’t know how that will work).

¾ cup organic almond creamer (if allergic, organic raw milk or organic grass fed cow’s milk or even organic goat’s milk. No soy.

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

Directions:

1…In a large bowl, mix all ingredients. Use a hand whisk for better texture. No electric mixers allowed.

2… Heat a lightly oiled skillet or frying pan, preferably cast iron. No Teflon lined skillet or fryer allowed.

3… Scoop as much as you want onto the griddle to make as big or small pancakes as you wish. Makes about seven 4” pancakes.

Chase with organic fair trade coffee and a newspaper.

Enjoy.
