JCJ's Protein Pancakes

A close girlfriend of mine got me hooked on protein pancakes  last summer.  Her enthusiasm and goal settings on weight loss inspired me to create a recipe that would be good at breakfast, lunch and dinner!  This recipe is so simple and tasty with berries and Canadian Maple Syrup!

*GarFava Bean Flour is a mix of garbanzo and fava beans.  It is very high in protein.  It can be hard on the digestive system, so introduce it slowly.  You can find this bean flour at your local  natural foods stores.
