PANCAKES! Who doesn’t love them, seriously?
You say Sunday morning. I say pancakes. They just work. Any day, any time,
really. But unfortunately, most pancakes are full of sugar, and gluten and
junk. Especially the Shake ‘n’ Bake kind and yes, even the gluten free variety.
(Note to self gluten-free processed foods are not healthy, just because they do
not have gluten in them).

I like to experiment with recipes. Sometimes
they are complete failure. Other times a huge success. The recipe I am going to
share with you, my lovely friends, was a huge success. Otherwise I wouldn’t
share it, would I? It probably wouldn’t even go on Instagram because, as
everyone knows, you only put the highlights of your life on Instagram.

Anyway, enough jibber jabber (that didn’t even get spell-checks. Seriously?). Give these
yummy Paleo pumpkin (yes there is a vegetable hiding in there) pie pancakes a whirl. I am
pretty sure even the little ones (meaning kids) would like these. Handy tip: roast the pumpkin
the night before in coconut oil. Roast
some other veggies for your dinner that night, while you’re at it. Why not?

Pumpkin Pie Pancakes

| They taste better than they look. Promise. |
Ingredients
- ½ cup mashed pumpkin (roast the night
before) - 2 eggs, whisked
- ½-1tsp cinnamon (I have super strong
cinnamon at them moment) - ¼ tsp nutmeg
- ¼-1/2 tsp all spice
- ¼ tsp ginger powder
- ¼ tsp baking soda
- Coconut oil/butter to cook in
- Splash coconut water (or plain water, but
coconut will be sweeter)
How to
- Heat oil/butter in a frying pan over
medium-high heat - Mix all ingredients, except coconut water,
in a mixing bowl until smooth - Add a splash of coconut water to thin out
the consistency a little - Add dollops of mixture to the pan once it
is hot, allowing to cook lightly (2-3mins) on one side, then flip and repeat - Serve with whatever your heart desires.
Mine desired sunflower seeds and coconut flakes. A little full fat yoghurt and
some berries would probably be quite nice, too - ENJOY!
