I created this pancake recipe with my nephew, Brad, in mind. He is trying to stop eating gluten, and he needs to eat a lot of healthy proteins and fats because he is very active.
What you need:
6 eggs
1/2 cup coconut flour
1/2 cup applesauce
1/4 cup peanut butter or other nut butter
1/4 cup melted coconut oil
1/4 tsp. sea salt
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. vanilla
Butter
Maple Syrup
Equipment:
Vita-Mix
Frying pan or pancake griddle
What you do:
Blend first eight ingredients in Vita-Mix
Heat butter on frying pan
Add batter (smaller pancakes are much easier to turn)
Flip when browned on one side
Enjoy topped with butter and maple syrup!
Makes about 16 pancakes
