PALEO Banana Almond Pancakes

This recipe makes enough for 2 people. It takes about 30 minutes to put together.  It doesn't have a lot of protein like you should be getting on Paleo so you can add some bacon, sausage, chicken, etc. 

Ingredients:

  • 2 bananas
  • 2 egg
  • 1 Tbs coconut flour
  • 1-2 Tbs almond butter
  • fresh or frozen blueberries
  • 1/4 cup nuts of choice (walnuts, macadamia, almonds are good), chopped
  • 1 tsp. coconut oil
  • Dash of sea salt (optional)
Instructions:
  1. Mash bananas in a bowl.
  2. Add the eggs, coconut flour, almond butter, blueberries, and nuts (I used pecans and almonds) and salt, and whisk until well blended.
  3. Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat along with a small pat of coconut oil.
  4. Pour small discs of batter onto the hot pan (around 3-4" around). They'll be easier to flip if you keep them from the edges of the pan. The batter was a little thick so I spread it out a little after I poured it.
  5. Flip when batter loses its "tackiness" around the edges.
  6. Cook other side slowly over medium heat until fully cooked.
  7. Reapply oil to the pan after each round of pancakes. Very important or they will stick!!!!
I recommend using Coconut Nectar as a type of syrup.  It has a very low glycemic index and is great for the paleo diet. These were pretty good pancakes.  I definitely recommend adding the blueberries to the pancakes because they made them even better.
