Protein Pancakes with Almond Flour
Recipe without sugar and sweetener, to be made traditionally and also with the Thermomix.
Now a cult of protein diets, we find various recipes, but every food has its origins, but have you ever wondered if Pancakes are truly American or of Anglo-Saxon origin?
You wouldn’t believe it, but the recipe originated in Greece and they called them teganites, referring to the type of pan in which they were prepared, although without yeast.
During their passage in Europe, yeast was added, and with the discovery of America, it spread, eventually becoming the recipe for delicious pancakes topped with maple syrup, jam, honey, or dried fruit.
