Paleo Pancakes

These are awesome and just the thing when you really need something sweet or a dessert, and there's nothing Paleo in the house!! Now, the ingredients here are just a guess so you'll have to phaff about with it a bit to get it right. There are heaps of variations you can make so add any fruit you like. Remember though, they're quite dense and very moist. They don't have the same texture as regular flour pancake but they won't upset your blood sugars either ;) They do take longer to cook than regular pancakes, and you might find that they burn easily, just lower the heat and cook more slowly if this happens. Here's a pic of a larger one/

Ingredients

1 and 1/2 cups almond meal
2 free range eggs
1/2 cup coconut milk
1 mashed banana (or half cup blue berries)
1tbsp coconut oil
1tsp baking powder

Optional

1tbsp slivered almonds
2tbsp extra coconut milk
1tbsp manuka honey.

Method

Whisk eggs together and add almond meal. Stir through mashed banana and coconut milk. If it's too thick or too runny adjust the almond meal/coconut milk ratio. Sprinkle in the baking powder and stir through thoroughly. If you're not a fan of banana just leave it out.

 In a non stick frying pan heat a little of the coconut oil. Poor or spoon some dollops of the mixture in the size you want. They're quite thick so you might need to use a spoon to disperse and flatten the mixture a little. Make sure you leave room to flip them! Cook on a low-medium heat until the top of the mixture appears to be turning solid. Flip, and cook for a further 4 or so minutes.

They're delicious like this, or you could add the optional ingredients for a more indulgent dessert ;)
