We talk about protein all the time… but what about fibre? 👀

Most adults should be getting 30g a day — yet only around 10% of us actually do.

And fibre isn’t just about digestion.

It supports:
✨ Blood sugar balance
✨ Appetite control
✨ Heart health
✨ Hormone balance
✨ A thriving gut microbiome

The good news? You don’t need anything fancy.

Add lentils to your bolognese.
Swap white rice for brown.
Throw seeds on your salad.
Leave the skins on your fruit and veg.

Small upgrades. Big impact.

⚠️ Just remember — increase gradually and drink plenty of water.

Tell me…

Do you think you’re hitting 30g a day? Drop a YES or NO below 👇

🥞✨ Pancake Tuesday Buckwheat Pancakes with Berry Sauce ✨🥞

Fluffy, wholesome and naturally sweet – the perfect way to celebrate Pancake Tuesday! 💛

🛒 Ingredients

For the pancakes:
• 225g buckwheat flour
• 1 tsp baking powder
• ½ tsp ground cinnamon
• A pinch of salt
• 275ml rice milk (or cow’s milk)
• 1 large egg
• 1–2 tbsp coconut butter (for frying)
• 1 tbsp maple syrup or honey

For the berry sauce:
• 200g fresh or frozen berries (defrosted if frozen)

👩‍🍳 Method

1️⃣ Blend the berries until smooth (avoid blending blueberries with other berries as they lose flavour).
Optional: Strain through a fine sieve for a smooth, pip-free sauce. Set aside.

2️⃣ In a bowl, mix the buckwheat flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt.
In another bowl, whisk the milk and egg together. Gradually pour the wet mix into the dry ingredients, whisking until you have a smooth batter.

3️⃣ Heat a frying pan and brush with coconut butter.
Ladle in enough batter for a thin pancake. Cook for 2–3 minutes, flip, and cook the other side.
Stack cooked pancakes on a plate over a bowl of hot water to keep warm.

4️⃣ If using whole blueberries, stir them into the sauce.
Serve pancakes drizzled with maple syrup (or honey) and plenty of berry sauce.

💛 Naturally gluten-free
💛 Refined sugar free
💛 Perfect for sharing

Happy Pancake Tuesday! 🥞✨
