Method

Preheat the oven to 425F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.


Combine flaxseed and 3 tablespoons water in a cup and let sit until thickened, about 5 minutes.


Combine almondmilk and 1/3 cup of the ricotta in a blender and blend until smooth.


Pour into a medium bowl and stir in broccoli, flour, baking powder, salt and flaxseed mixture.


Ladle batter by 1/4 cupfuls onto the prepared baking sheet, making 8 pancakes; if edges spread and touch, don't worry – you can separate pancakes after baking.


Bake until pancakes are browned on bottoms and edges, about 20 minutes.


Top pancakes with remaining 1/3 cup ricotta and chile flakes.


Eat with a fork or fold and enjoy like a taco.


Pancakes will keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days; reheat them in the microwave or in a 300F oven until warm.
