Primal Berry Pancake

Another yummy recipe from The Primal Blueprint Quick & Easy Recipes. This one takes a little time and dirties a few dishes, but it's worth it!

This big pancake has a texture between a souffle and a pancake, so it's really fluffy! It is gluten free and no added sugar!

Serves 4

Preheat oven to 400 F.

3 Tbsp unsalted butter
1 cup berries
4 large eggs, separated into whites and yolks
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp cinnamon

Heat butter in a 10-inch oven-proof skillet over medium heat. Add the berries and simmer for 3-5 minutes so the liquid thickens.

While the berries simmer, use an electric mixer to beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form.

In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks for 1-2 minutes by hand with the vanilla and cinnamon. Gently fold the yolks into the egg whites.

With the heat under the fruit still at medium, spread the egg batter evenly on top of the fruit. Cook 2 minutes without touching, then transfer the pan to the oven. Bake for 10-12 minutes until the batter is puffed up slightly and lightly browned.

Remove the pan from the oven. Place a plate over the pan and flip the pan to invert the souffle so the fruit is face up. Eat warm or at room temperature.
