1 Tablespoon ground flaxseed
1 teaspoon stevia
1 3/4 teaspoons baking powder
1 egg
1 3/4 cup skim milk
1 teaspoon vinegar
2 Tablespoons olive oil or grapeseed oil

In a small bowl mix vinegar into the milk and let set for 5 minutes. In another bowl, mix together the dry ingredients. Add the milk, egg and oil to the dry ingredients and allow to set for another 5 minutes. Add more milk if needed for the desired consistency. Ladle the mixture onto a hot, lightly oiled griddle. When holes appear on the surface of the pancakes, turn them to brown the other side. Serves 6
