Ingredients (Serves 2-3):

• 2 tablespoons (or 2 sachets) of Warm Feelings® saffron latte

• 4 tablespoons Agent Nateur Marine Collagen powder

• 3/4 cup einkorn flour

• 3 large eggs

• ½ cup milk of choice (adjust for consistency)

• 1 tablespoon olive oil (plus more for cooking)

• ¼ cup grated Parmesan or pecorino cheese (optional, for added savory flavor)

• 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh herbs (e.g., parsley, dill, or chives)

• 1 teaspoon baking powder

• Pinch of sea salt

• Butter for greasing the pan

Assembly:

1. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together einkorn flour, Warm Feelings® saffron latte powder, collagen powder, baking powder, and sea salt.

2. Prepare Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, milk of choice, and olive oil until well combined.

3. Combine: Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until the batter is smooth. If using Parmesan and fresh herbs, gently fold them into the batter. Adjust consistency with a little more milk if the batter feels too thick.

4. Cook Pancakes: Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake onto the skillet.

5. Flip: Cook for 2-3 minutes until the edges set and bubbles form on the surface. Flip carefully and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden and cooked through.

6. Serve: Stack the pancakes and serve warm with your choice of savory toppings.

7. Topping Suggestions:

1. Yogurt Sauce: Use Greek or coconut yogurt mixed with a squeeze of lemon, a drizzle of olive oil, and finely chopped herbs.

2. Sautéed Greens: Lightly sautéed spinach with garlic for a nutritious complement.

3. Avocado and Eggs: Top with sliced avocado and a soft-boiled or poached egg.

4. Smoked Salmon: Add for an extra layer of savory flavor.
