Why suitable for low histanmine diet

Quinoa is a fantastic source of protein and is very low in histamine. It's a versatile grain that works perfectly in these pancakes. The other ingredients, such as almond milk and eggs, are all known to be low in histamine. By using fresh blueberries, we avoid the high histamine content found in processed or preserved fruits.

Tipps

Ensuring Fluffy Pancakes

Make sure not to overmix your batter as this can result in tougher pancakes. Mix just until the dry and wet ingredients are combined.

Make Your Own Blueberry Syrup

Making your own blueberry syrup ensures that you can control the contents and avoid any histamine-rich ingredients that might be in store-bought versions. Plus, it tastes way better!

Storing Leftover Pancakes

If you have leftover pancakes, wrap them up and store them in the fridge. They're just as delicious reheated in the toaster or in a pan with a little bit of coconut oil.
