This Mother's Day treat mom to a special brunch of homemade Lemon Raspberry Pancakes made using our Vegan Pancake & Waffle Mix. This nutritious breakfast is served with a raspberry sauce topping sweetened with BochaSweet. These fluffy pancakes are light, bursting with fresh flavors from lemon zest and raspberry.
What's so special about this brunch is that mom can feel good about wholesome, nutritious plant-based ingredients inside these pancakes. Our gluten-free Vegan Pancake & Waffle Mix contains health boosting hemp and pea protein, cinnamon, MCT oil powder, and acacia fiber. Here's what you need to know about pea and hemp protein:
- Pea Protein: This protein is made by extracting protein from yellow peas and contains all nine essential amino acids especially rich in branched-chain amino acids (BCAA's). We added this protein for easy digestion and absorption.
- Hemp Protein: A "complete" protein that contains all nine essential amino acids, antioxidants and minerals, magnesium and iron, and a 3:1 ratio of omega-6 and omega-3 fats.
Best of all, our Vegan Pancake & Waffle Mix makes it quick and easy to make this recipe. Simply add eggs (or vegan replacement), butter (or coconut oil), milk of choice (or water), and a touch of lemon zest. You'll be surprised that this recipe will make 14 medium-sized pancakes which is perfect for the whole family to enjoy.
