BANANA ALMOND PANCAKES WITH PEAR RASPBERRY COMPOTE

Right before this picture was taken there was a {very romantic} conversation taking place between me and that stack of pancakes.  I was asking them, in effect, if they would spend their life with me.  Yes, that's right, I proposed to a stack of pancakes.  They're vegan, have no sugar, no gluten, are so quick to throw together it's ridiculous and so yes, I want to marry them.  You will too, I promise.  My darling friend Farra made them for me at Poet's Loft and I very nearly proposed to her too.  So beware, this recipe may result in an engagement.  Don't say I didn't warn you!!!!  {recipe and more after the jump!}
