Ahhh... Weekends!

Weekends are made for slow-paced mornings and delicious breakfast foods that don't require you to eat and run.  This morning, I set out to make Almond and Yogurt waffles found on the blog Roost.  If you haven't checked out this beautiful blog, you are really missing out,  www.roostblog.com/roost/almond-yogurt-waffles-with-orange-honey-syrup.html.  Now, I actually tried this recipe last week and it was a complete disaster :(  Since I don't own a waffle maker, I thought I would make pancakes instead. Contrary to belief, DO NOT add baking powder to this recipe. I really think that is what I did wrong as well as maybe adding too much liquid to the batter.  This morning,  I really put my math skills to the test (since making the full recipe would have been too much food for me)  and they came out fabulous.  I used a griddle pan, as suggested in a recipe from Jamie Oliver, to make a sort of waffle.

Enjoy!

• 3 cups almond flour
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp baking soda
