The best pancakes. Ever.

We have made these at least five times since my sister sent me the recipe a little over a week ago. We double the recipe and manage to eat all of the pancakes in one day. I sub coconut milk for the milk, coconut oil for the oil/butter, use all whole wheat flour, and use 1 T flax/3 T water for the egg. They are so good! I haven't made the streusel topping and instead top them with homemade granola and applesauce. Mmm!

Egg rolls/sweet & sour sauce

I followed this recipe fairly closely. I added pea sprouts, shallots, and omitted the pork. I rubbed the egg roll wrappers with a bit of olive oil and baked at 400 degrees about 20 min. We served them over rice. I also made some sweet and sour sauce to put on top. I followed this recipe exactly but used arrowroot powder instead of cornstarch.
