Ingredients
 

Orange Poppy Seed Pancakes

  • 1 cup gluten free Bisquick
  • zest of one orange
  • 1 tablespoon poppy seeds
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1/4 cup orange juice
  • 1 egg beaten
  • 4-5 tablespoons coconut oil for cooking

Cranberry Syrup

  • 2 1/4 cups water
  • 2 cups white sugar or sweetener of your choice
  • 2 cups fresh cranberries
  • zest from one orange

Instructions
 

For the Pancakes:

  • In a medium size mixing bowl combine the flour, orange zest, and poppy seeds. Add in buttermilk, orange juice, and egg.
  • Combine mixture well.
  • Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium to medium high heat.
  • Melt one tablespoon of coconut oil. Scoop out the pancake batter with an ice cream scoop.
  • Cook pancakes for approximately 1-2 minutes until you see little bubbles form, flip pancakes, cook for about one more minute or until golden brown.
  • Add additional oil as needed.

For the Cranberry Syrup

  • Combine all ingredients in a small sauce pan and bring to a simmer. Simmer at least 15 minutes until the cranberries have burst. Strain the cranberries from the syrup and simmer for 20 minutes until it has reduced by half.
  • Serve syrup warm or room temperature with pancakes or waffles. Garnish with cranberries if desired.

Notes

To reduce sugar content and calories, you could replace the sugar with a different sweetener. Using Splenda instead of sugar reduces the sugar from 108.6 grams to 18.4 grams per 3 pancakes + about 1/4 cup syrup and the calories from 744 per stack to 398. Monkfruit or other substitutes could also reduce these.
