Stevia extract is optional, the pancakes are sweet enough with the vanilla protein powdeer and sweet sorghum flour. Depending on the desired consitency, you may wish to add up to an additional 1/2 cup of almond milk.
Place on hot ceramic or stainless steel flat pan on medium temperature, that has been prepped with 1/2 t. of cold pressed organic coconut oil. Make sure pan is hot (medium heat to start) before placing batter on pan. Batter should sizzle when making contact with the pan.

Serve pancakes with fresh fruit. Using a blender, puree some fruit to make a fresh syrup and add a couple drops of raw honey if desired. Or serve with locally produced maple syrup.
