Ingredients
24 Rice Crackers (I used Superstore's plain, "no name" crackers)
3 Eggs
That's it!
I used my "Magic Bullet" and first made the rice crackers into crumbs then blended in the eggs. I spooned the batter into a non-stick frying pan and cooked just til the batter seemed to start firming up, then flipped them over. Watch that they don't burn.
****This recipe only makes 8 very small pancakes, each about 2 inches in diameter. They were perfect with honey!
A few months back, I was craving french toast and didn't have any gfcf bread in the house, so I crunched up some rice crackers, mixed in some eggs, and poured the mixture into egg molds in my frying pan. They were pretty good, and I've turned to that often as an inexpensive french toast alternative.
Today I wanted something more along the pancake line, and since I'm just recovering from some sort of something or other, I knew I needed something with protein that would be light on the stomach and wouldn't take long to make. These worked out to be a perfect solution. Obviously this doesn't work well for families having a big pancake breakfast, but as a snack or as part of a larger meal for 1 or 2 people, these are fantastic.
As most of my friends know, I love experimenting in the kitchen. Our cooking is primarily gluten-free, dairy-free, and meat-reduced. We do purchase some canned goods but mostly try to stay clear of processed foods, and prefer using local honey as a sweetener, though I occasionally buy organic and/or fair-trade cane sugar. As a low-income, single mom of a child who lives with disabilities, I also believe it is possible to pack a lot of nutrition into a small budget. Eat simply! Eat well!
