The type of oil you use to cook with is very important.  Most vegetable oils (apart from olive oil) are very heat unstable and cooking with them creates free radicals (aging and toxic chemicals for the body).  Only cook with coconut oil, ghee and olive oil (not to high temperatures).

In making pancakes, don’t fry them with vegetable oils, try ghee or coconut oil.  Likewise, add coconut oil or ghee to your pancake mix rather than vegetable oils.

These delicious dairy and wheat-free coconut oil spelt pancakes make a lovely treat, either with a savoury or sweet filling.  If you are going for sweet,  try cold-extracted honey or unrefined brown sugar with lemon or lime for the traditional sweet-sour yumminess.  Add a little cinnamon for added health benefits.
