Weight Loss Forum / General Topics / August 2004Pilates and Peanut Butter Pancakes
If I skip exercises, blame it on the lowly peanut. One of my favorite breakfasts is a peanut butter pancake, (One egg and one tablespoon peanut butter plus a pinch of baking soda). Since PB is calorie dense, I don't keep it on hand all the time but when I do a big conflict always arises. Exercise is before breakfast. But there have been times when I wanted that PB pancake so badly that I put off the Pilates until later, which never came. This morning, exercise and a hot shower made me feel I now deserve that fresh squeezed organic orange juice, fluffy PB Pancake and tall Allegra freshly ground coffee (the Whole Foods House brand)with a dash of vanilla and cinnamon. Besides, I'm stalling. Today is election day in Canada and many of us will be undecided until the polling places open at 9:30 a.m. I'm voting for whoever supports the peanut farmers!

Wow .. this sounds good! Do you cook the same as a pancake? And I wonder if it would work w/ other nut butters? ~Kat "The early bird gets the worm, the second mouse gets the cheese." > >One of my favorite breakfasts is a peanut butter pancake, (One egg and > >one tablespoon peanut butter plus a pinch of baking soda). > > Wow .. this sounds good! Do you cook the same as a pancake? > And I wonder if it would work w/ other nut butters? > ~Kat Same as other pancakes and using any nut butter. i have made it in a pan with melted one pat of butter and without butter in a non stick pan too. It's excellent for those who are garin free or low carb SignatureDiva ****** There is no substitute for the right food carol, would you post directions for your pancakes? they appear to be LC FRIENDLY!

In a narrow container, combine 1 egg, one heaping tablespoon of nut butter, a squirt of honey and 1/4 tsp. baking SODA. Heat small skillet and add i pat butter 9or do in a non stick skillet fat freee) Cook until browned on one side, turn and finish. Not butters and nut flours brown quickly. I top it with honey or hot cooked berries sweetened with honey or saccharin. Diva Carol, I'm a bit confused as I don't see any flour in this. Is it more like an omelette rather than a pancake? janice >> carol, >> would you post directions for your pancakes?

It will be a pancake as niut butter is the same as nut flour. It just becaomes thick and more liquid when processed longer. Try the recipe and you will see. SignatureDiva ****** There is no substitute for the right food : It will be a pancake as niut butter is the same as nut flour. it is? i didn't know that! thanks carol. > If I skip exercises, blame it on the lowly peanut. > [quoted text clipped - 16 lines] > > I'm voting for whoever supports the peanut farmers! Jimmy Carter will appreciate your vote<g> Your peanut butter pancake sounds good. I seldom bring peanut butter in the house as I have a problem leaving it alone until it's all gone. Do you have the Pilates tapes? I have some but have never used them :( They hold some Pilates sessions at the gym but they don't currently fit into my schedule. I've heard several people say they think it increases their flexibility. Have you found this true?

Beverly That sounds delicious Carol. How about posting the recipe in full. I know how to make ordinary pancakes, but perhaps this recipe is different? I think perhaps, though, that the thread should be called "Pilates OR peanut butter pancakes":) janice >If I skip exercises, blame it on the lowly peanut. > [quoted text clipped - 16 lines] > >I'm voting for whoever supports the peanut farmers! >If I skip exercises, blame it on the lowly peanut. Sorry, not my thing. But I think you have a lot of converts out there.

After a long night of watching the polls (most of which I did at the gym :)), I decided I needed to try this. WOW! Absolutely delicious! Thank you for posting this... I had one pancake with some cooked blueberry topping and I feel full! This will definitely become a breakfast favourite for me. ~Liz Carol: Haven't seen you for a while. Peanut butter is one of my favorite foods. Could you go into a little more detail about how one goes about making your peanut butter pancake? Sounds like a South Beach treasure. j > If I skip exercises, blame it on the lowly peanut. > [quoted text clipped - 16 lines] > > I'm voting for whoever supports the peanut farmers! > Carol: > > Haven't seen you for a while.

It is actually something for my Specific Carbohydrate Diet used for Celiac Disease. Use an electric hand blender or just stir the ingredients or use an electric egg beater. I sometimes add a dash of vanilla and cinnamon to the egg, peanut buter and poinch of baking soda. Use a non stick pan or a heated skillet with a pat of butter added. Pour in the batter, brown on one side, turn over and brown the other side. It's so simple. I pour honey on it. This may sound calorie dense and low carbers will not like the use of honey but I am currently on maintenance and because I do not use disaccharide carbohydrayes need some source of carbs to avoid ketosis. SignatureDiva ****** There is no substitute for the right food : This may sound calorie dense and low carbers will not like the use of : honey but I am currently on maintenance and because I do not use : disaccharide carbohydrayes need some source of carbs to avoid ketosis. carol? how about just saying, "i use HONEY because i like it, and i have worked it into my daily woe"? do you eat fruits and veggies? have you had problems with ketosis? > : This may sound calorie dense and low carbers will not like the use > of [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > do you eat fruits and veggies? > have you had problems with ketosis? Rosie, So glad you commented and gave me an opportunity to sound off on my favorite cause. One of the misconceptions about the Specific Carbohydrate Diet is that it is related to low carb when it actually singles out acceptable monosaccharide carbs that can be directly absorbed into the bloodstream without taxing a damaged digestive system. Children in particular who are following the diet for autism are very picky eaters. Nearly 50% have digestive malabsorption and there is a concern that because they are restricted from using disaccharide carbohydrates such as those found in grains and many root vegetables like potatoes, parsnips, yams and Jerusalem artichokes they may receive too much protein and produce ketones. This may be desireable in Atkins but not for these children. The two acceptable sweeteners are honey ( which has been predigested by the bees ) and saccharine, a chemical which now has a clean bill of health. I would certainly opt for the honey on a pancake or cheese crepe as saccharin disolved in hot water would lack texture. So this is why I eat honey, and yes--I also like it. As you may remember, I like many foods. I do eat fruits ans vegetables but should add even more. Over 80% of the children on our Yahoo group that supports The Specific Carbohydrate Diet for autism have improved or recovered on SCD. This includes a majority who transitioned from the Gluten Free Casein Diet when they reached a plateau in their progress. Not all diet is about weight loss. The children that don't get the nutrients from the food are mainly underweight and often starving and demanding large quantities of food during the initial detoxification period. In adults with gastric illness and gut inflammation, the diet usually stabilizes a normal weight once an obese person has lost the weight. For more about this diet as applied to autism, gastric diseases AHD and ADD see: www.pecanbread.com www.breakingtheviciouscycle.info SignatureDiva ****** There is no substitute for the right food I'd be curious when that was written. Voting day? that was months ago. > Carol: > [quoted text clipped - 28 lines] > > ****** > > There is no substitute for the right food Something like that. > I'd be curious when that was written.
