When we created Sakara, our intention was to provide nutrition and joy. We didn’t want anything to be off-limits, especially a quintessential breakfast option like pancakes. In the spirit of balance, we’ve created the perfect blend of indulgence and sustenance: a piping-hot tall stack loaded with plant-derived protein, with layers of fresh berry and chia compote and creamy, citrus-spiked crème slathered in between, like a breakfast-y naked cake.

Instructions

Step 1

Make the chia-berry compote: In a food processor, combine the raspberries and strawberries and pulse until chunky. Transfer to a small saucepan over low heat. Add the honey and simmer until the sauce thickens, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat, stir in the chia seeds, and allow the mixture to cool.

Step 2

Make the lemon cashew crème: In a food processor, combine all the ingredients and blend until smooth. Set aside.

Step 3

Make the pancakes: Make a flax egg by mixing together the flaxseed meal with 1 1⁄4 cups of water. Let the mixture sit until thickened, about 2 minutes.

Step 4

In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and baking soda and whisk together. Pour in the milk and flax egg and stir until the batter is completely smooth.
