Pumpkin Flax Pancakes
Ingredients:
1 cup canned pumpkin
1/2 cup cream
3 eggs
1/2 cup ground flaxseed
1 tsp lemon juice
1 tsp cinnamon
dash of clove
dash of ground ginger
1/8 tsp salt
4 packets of Splenda


How to Prepare:

Oil for pan--use something that has a high smoke point, like grapeseed. I used olive, and it smoked a little bit. Kind of stunk up the house, and definitely not healthy.

Combine thoroughly all ingredients in a mixing bowl. Heat a few tablespoons of oil in a large frying pan on medium/high heat or on an electric griddle set for around 375F (the setting on which you would do pancakes).

When hot form 2 inch patties no thicker than 1/4 of an inch (any thicker and they will not cook properly). Saute each side of patty until golden brown--approximately 3 minutes each side. You need to cook the first side thorougly or you will not be able to flip it. Drain on paper towels and cool slightly before serving. Makes approximately 8 cakes.

Add a little splenda sweetened whipped cream to the top of each cake a serve with just a dash of ground cinnamon for garnish.

The entire recipe has 59 grams of carb with 22 of those being fiber, giving us a net of 37 grams of carb. That works out to 4.625 for each cake, not including any added whipped cream.

This was from another board. Some variations were to not use the butter(I used 2 T water instead) or cut down on butter and some used 2 T almond flour and 2 T flax seed meal (I used 3 T flax and 1 T almond flour and I used an egg white only also). It's pretty forgiving and works well for burgers. Some others added splenda and cinnamon for a breakfast bun also. The bowl is just a cereal bowl or whatever you have, bun sized.
------------------------------------------------------
This makes a wonderful hamburger bun, it tastes like a whole wheat bun. It's very sturdy and holds up well with all the juiciness of a hamburger with all the fixings.

1.4 Carb Hamburger Bun

2 tablespoons of melted butter-0
1/2 pinch of salt-0
1 extra large egg-.7
4 tablespoons of flaxseed meal-0
1/2 teaspoon of baking powder.-.7

Mix together and put in the microwave and nuke for 1 minute or until center is set. Leave it in the bowl for another minute then turn it out on a cooling rack and let it cool.

Once it has cooled take a long bread knife and slice the bun in half and make your hamburger as usual.

I used a “grab-it” microwave bowl. It's just the right size to make a large hamburger bun.
