Serves 1 large or 2 medium portions

Ingredients

1 flax egg (1 tablespoon ground flaxseed + 2 tablespoon water) or 1 chicken egg

1 tablespoon buttercream

½ cup unsweetened almond milk

1 tablespoon agave nectar

1 teaspoon baking powder

½ teaspoon baking soda

pinch of salt

½ teaspoon vanilla extract

½ cup whole-wheat flour (all purpose works fine, too)

¼ cup blueberries (fresh or frozen)

For the peach compote

1 cup fresh or frozen peaches

2 tablespoons pure maple syrup

2 tablespoons coconut sugar (brown sugar is fine)

2 tablespoons orange juice

2 tablespoons water

¼ cup finely chopped fresh basil

Instructions

1. Heat griddle or large skillet over medium heat, or 350 F.
2. For compote, add ingredients to small saucepan, and let simmer for 15 minutes until thick, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
3. If using flax egg, add ground flaxseed and water and let sit for 2 minutes in order to gelatinize. Add melted butter, agave, baking soda, baking powder, salt, almond milk, vanilla and whisk well.
4. Add flower to mixture above, being careful not to over mix. Carefully fold in blueberries and let better sit at rest for 5-10 minutes.
