Healthy Pancake Recipe

Whoop whoop it's nearly Pancake Day!

I'm sure you know how I love to try and make a standard meal a bit healthier by taking out the sugar or ditching the gluten so pancake day is no different.

Many of  you already know about the banana pancake which so many people try and then keep as a regular part of  their diet once they are hooked.

Well I had a go at a variation and it seems to work out ok.

So here is a gluten free, high protein, high fibre, sugar free pancake that you can top with anything you fancy and if you fry in coconut oil it is also dairy free. I was happy to eat my as it comes:)

It made about 6 pancakes so enough for 2 or more people

4 eggs

1/4 cup coconut flour (eg Tiana available from health food shops)

2 small ripe bananas

1/2 cup almond milk (unsweetened ideally unless you have a sweet tooth)

2 tablespoons coconut oil (melted)

pinch of baking soda

cinnamon and vanilla powder to taste

These could be used as a breakfast alternative as they are or top with berries, a dollop of almond butter or even my favourite - Coyo coconut yoghurt.

Let me know what you think as I always welcome feedback when I've only done 1 experiment so far for a healthy pancake day recipe
