Official TBK Pancakes

Ingredients
¾ cup of Gluten Free Oats
¾ cup of Almond Flour
¼ cup of coconut flour
¼ cup of arrow root or tapioca flour
¼ cup of agave nectar
6 egg whites
1 cup of coconut yogurt (plain or flavored)
1 tsp of baking powder
½ tsp of salt
1 cup of water (add a little at a time until desired thickness)

Instructions:
Place oats, coconut flour, almond flour, arrow root (or tapioca flour), baking powder and salt in a food processor and cut until a fine well combined flour is the result. Add eggs, agave nectar, yogurt and water to the dry mixture and mix until desired texture (coconut flour soaks up liquid, so you may need more water). Preheat a skillet and spray just enough to make it easy to cook your cakes. Take a ¼ cup measuring cup and scoop the batter (this makes the perfect size pancake). Place on skillet and cook until the edges bubble and look done. Flip and cook until golden.

You can sprinkle the top with a stevia packet and a few blueberries.
