Hello there! Today I am going to be sharing the recipe for protein packed paleo coconut flour pancakes. They are legit 🔥
These pancakes are not only delicious and nourishing, but they are so quick and easy to make.
Recipe (Makes 1 single serving)
1 ripe banana 🍌
1 tbsp organic coconut flour
1/4 tsp organic baking powder
1 tsp organic vanilla extract
2 organic cage free eggs
Avocado oil cooking spray to coat the pan
Toppings shown above
Mixed berries and a fig with a splash of Rose Water and a dash of cinnamon
Method
In one bowl, mash the banana 🍌 and then add in the two eggs and the vanilla.
Then, in a separate bowl add the dry ingredients and mix those together. Combine both the wet and dry ingredients together and put about 1/3 cup of batter at a time onto the avocado oil or coconut oil sprayed pan.
Flip those babies over when they are golden brown.
For me personally, I don’t consume any added sugars. If I wanted my pancakes to taste a little more sweet since I do not add any syrup, I sometimes put some organic canned peaches in 100% fruit juice on top. The fruit juice acts like syrup but tastes way better and is full of vitamin C. Date syrup is another awesome option.
If you choose to consume sugar but want a healthier option, I recommend honey or coconut nectar.
Most times I am more than satisfied with just some rose water, spices and fresh berries on top ! 😋
Why are these pancakes better than your average pancake mix?
The average store bought pancake mix is packed with sodium, preservatives, and bleached flour. All of these ingredients can lead to inflammation, high blood pressure, skin breakouts, and so much more. This forces our bodies to work harder in order to get rid of these toxins. Instead, help your body get stronger by feeding it foods that aid in detoxification and growth.
This recipe is packed with protein for hair, skin, nails, and muscle growth.
Coconut flour boasts a wide range of benefits:
- High in medium chain fatty acids which help to speed up metabolism, energize the body, and regulate blood sugar levels
- Has the ability to lower the bad LDL cholesterol
- Packed with fiber. Fiber is not digested, but rather passes through the digestive system and brings toxins along with it. This is why coconut flour is detoxifying.
- Gluten free
- Unlike wheat and other grains, coconut flour does not contain phytic acid, a toxin that inhibits nutrients from being absorbed by the body. Instead, it is full of trace minerals that are easily absorbed.
The benefits of coconut flour, bananas, eggs, and rose water are so numerous.
