These dairy-free egg-free pancakes are a delightful breakfast.  Traditional buttermilk is substituted with almond milk, which gives the pancakes a slightly sweet flavor.  Whole wheat flour and flaxseed meal are used to create a more nutritionally rich meal.  Cook the pancakes on a griddle or non-stick skillet and serve with butter and pure maple syrup.
