Elevate your morning with superfood pancakes – Organic Traditions
Rise and shine with Organic Traditions this International Pancake Day. Start your day on a nutritious note by indulging in a delectable twist on the brand’s Original Pancake & Waffle Mix.
Its gluten-free blend features certified gluten-free oat flour, prebiotic-rich green banana flour and nutrient-dense coconut flour, creating fluffy and wholesome pancakes and waffles that are rich in fibre.
The brand says this recipe allows pancake lovers to ‘experience the perfection of a golden, fluffy stack – lightly crisp on the edges and irresistibly tender in the centre’. Crafted with only six carefully chosen ingredients, Organic Traditions superfood pancakes ‘radiate homemade charm’ and offer a chance to enjoy a moment of simplicity, whether on a busy weekday or a relaxed weekend with family and friends.
Simple steps
Ingredients
1 egg (or egg substitute)
3/4 cup of milk or water
3/4 cup of dry mix (Original, Matcha or Chocolate)
Toppings of choice
Method
Whisk together the egg or egg substitute, milk or water and oil.
Whisk the dry mix and wet ingredients until well combined. Allow the batter to rest for 10 minutes to let the leaveners work their magic.
Heat oil or butter in a pan over medium heat. Ladle 1/4 cup of pancake batter per pancake into the warmed pan.
Flip the discs when bubbles start to appear and the pancake is golden brown (about 3-4 minutes per side).
Serve warm with toppings of your choice.

“These pancakes are packed with prebiotic fibre which helps to ‘feed’ good gut bacteria“

"These pancakes are packed with prebiotic fibre which helps to ‘feed’ good gut bacteria,” says Sisley Killam, US-based nutritionist at The Pure Life and author of The 7 Day Clear Skin Plan. “When our gut bacteria is thriving, this can send anti-inflammatory messengers to our skin, help to regulate and metabolize hormones, support clear and glowing skin and boost our immune function."
Maddison Bekolay, Organic Traditions marketing manager and holistic nutritionist, adds: "In every bite, we have the power to nourish not just our taste buds but our entire wellbeing. Pancake Day becomes an opportunity to elevate breakfast from a mere indulgence to a wholesome, balanced delight. Our gluten-free superfood pancakes … embody this philosophy. By choosing ingredients that truly feed the body, we transform a classic morning treat into a nourishing experience. With only six simple, organic components, our pancakes are a testament to the idea that every meal is a chance to fuel our bodies with intention. Here's to starting your day with a stack of goodness that not only delights your taste buds but supports your wellbeing, bite by delicious bite."
