DIRECTIONS

Combine all the ingredients except the pancake mix into a medium-sized bowl.. Use an immersion blender (or regular blender) to puree the ingredients until smooth.
Stir in the pancake mix. Let batter sit for a few minutes while you heat a large skillet over medium-low heat. Lightly coat the skillet with non-stick spray and pour the batter into small 3-4 inch circles.
When the pancakes start bubbling a bit and the bottom is lightly browned, flip them over and continue cooking for about a minute on the other side. (If batter thickens too much, add a little more almond milk or water.)
Serve warm with syrup - ENJOY!
