Why Almond Pancake is considered a Menopause-Friendly Recipe:
Almond flour is a great source of vitamin E and magnesium, which can help combat hot flashes and support bone health. Eggs provide essential proteins and healthy fats, vital for hormone production and balance. Coconut oil contains medium-chain triglycerides which can aid in weight management, a common concern during menopause.
