This comes by way of one of my favorite wedding gifts from one of my favorite professors--the More-with-Less Cookbook has been well loved and used in our household since 2001!

Since I received the book way back then, I've had to change my eating habits, so I've amended this recipe to be gluten- and dairy-free--I also spiced it up!

You'll need:

• 1 cup rice flour
• 1.5 cups almond flour
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 tablespoon brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon (or more) ground ginger
• 2 cups unsweetened almond or soy milk
• 2 eggs, well beaten
• 2 tablespoons grapeseed oil
• 1 cup diced apples
• 1/2 cup chopped walnuts

Do this:

Combine the dry ingredients in a bowl and combine the liquid ingredients well in a separate bowl, then pour into the dry ingredients and stir. Then add in the apples and walnuts and cook as per usual for pancakes. We had them for dinner one night, along with some sausages!
