No Sugar Buttermilk Pancakes

In an earlier post--like way earlier--I shared a recipe for my Buttermilk pancakes with Buttermilk syrup. If you've made them you'll know how delicious they are, but since changing to a no sugar lifestyle I haven't had the pleasure of eating them. Occasionally I will make them for my family and  I'll end up eat my usual eggs for breakfast.
Then I got a brilliant idea the last time I made them.
"I'm going to make them with honey instead of sugar!" I said with a snicker and rubbing my hands together.
Guess what! They turned out wonderfully perfect!
Here's the recipe...

No Sugar Buttermilk Pancakes
2 cups buttermilk
1 egg
1 Tablespoon honey
Mix the three ingredients together in bowl then *add:
1 rounded cup of flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
Dash of salt
*Mix dry ingredients together then add in with buttermilk.  ONLY STIR FOR 10 SECONDS.  DO NOT OVER STIR.  IT SHOULD BE SLIGHTLY LUMPY.  Then cook pancakes on pancake grill.
Pancake batter will bubble a bit and that's a good sign of great pancakes.
Yes these are fantastic, but I'm not so sure about the syrup yet. I made the syrup without sugar and added honey in its place. I liked it, but my husband and sister-in-law didn't. One of my kids liked it, but the other two didn't. So, I think it's a hit and miss. I'll give it to you and see what you think. I'd love to hear from you, so comment below.

Buttermilk Syrup Without Sugar
1 cup of honey
¾ cup buttermilk
½ cup butter
Bring to boil over medium high heat then take off heat and add in
2 tsp vanilla

Sugar Free Peach Cobbler

Wouldn't you like to sink your teeth into a plate of this? I know I would. My mouth is watering just looking at it. Would you believe me if I told you this didn't have any sugar in it?
Well, believe it. It was made with honey. It's heavenly. Try it for yourself and see.

No Sugar Peach Cobbler
Peach mixture:
1/2 cup raw honey
1 tablespoon of corn starch
1/4 tsp cinnamon
5 cups of sliced peaches
1 tsp lemon juice
Topping:
1 cup flour
3 Tablespoons raw honey
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
3 to 4 tablespoons of butter
1/2 cup milk
Mix your peach mixture together and pour into a baking dish (9x13). Mix topping ingredients together until well blended and a bit sticky. Spoon clumps of it over the peaches. It won't spread over the entire peach mixture and you don't need it to. It will puff up and the peaches will boil around the puffs of dough to caramelize and look tasty. Bake at 400 for 20 to 30 min. (My oven cooks hotter than most, so you may want to check it after awhile).
I've found that cooking this with honey creates the topping to be crispier. It's divine and I know you'll love it.
Enjoy!
