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!}
Banana Almond Pancakes
adapted slightly from this recipe
2 cups almond meal
3 firm bananas
2 tablespoons flax
6 tablespoons warm water
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1 tablespoon cinnamon
pinch of sea salt
2 cups frozen raspberries
2 firm pears
1/2 lemon, juiced
coconut oil for cooking
choppped pecans for garnish
Method:
– Prepare flax “eggs” by combine ground flax with water. Place in refridgerator for 15- 3 minutes to set.
– In a medium, heavy bottomed sauce pan combine raspberries, diced pear and lemon juice. Cook over medium/low heat until pears are softened.
– While fruit is stewing…Mash bananas and combine with almond meal (I tried making it with fresh ground almond meal- it was disastrous. Use store bought almond meal!)
– Add baking soda, nutmeg, cinnamon and combine thoroughly.
– Add flax eggs and mix well.
– Scoop 1 1/2 tablespoons of pancake mixture into a well oiled frying pan and cook over medium low heat for 2-3 minutes (shape your pancke with a spoon if needed to get the shape you’d like! It’s very agreeable batter.)
– Flip and cook the other side for 1-2 minutes, or until it’s lightly browned.
– Serve in a stack with tons of the raspberry pear compote and some chopped pecans. Or go nuts and add some of this coconut whipped cream too, I dare you!
SUCH a yummy post to read in the morning! would love some of those right about now 😉
I'm obsessed with almond flour pancakes. Yummo.
Looks so delicious! I bet the pear raspberry compote is amazing. Can't wait to try this!
Pancakes are quite possibly my favourite food! The compote topping sounds just wonderful and coconut cream would definitely be a fantastic addition 🙂
I once read that pancakes are the 'black hole meal of breakfast', and it's stuck with me ever since (years!)–so whenever I eat them (rare), I either feel ridiculously guilty, or I've modified them to be better (hello quinoa pancakes… once, because then my bf found out there was quinoa in them and he REFUSED to take another bite–of a meal he'd been so deliciously enjoying up until that moment).
ANYWAYS.
These look amazing, AH-MAZE-ing. And, I like the note about buying the almond meal because I totally, like you, would have just tried to ground up some on my own. So that's helpful.
AND, your writing, so so soo funny, you have a way with words and I love coming here.
Have a great day, Sarah!
So beautiful, Sarah. Look at how vibrant those raspberries are! Love it. xo
These pancakes look so delicious! I'm going to try them this weekend:)
I just ordered the famous pears from Harry and David. These pancakes will be a perfect way to use them!
Yum!!! I would love those as a late night snack right about now!!
OH My! I gotta share this with my gluten free sis asap! Thanks :))
Sincerely,
Tania

My husband and I made these mast night and they were delicious! Loved them. Filling, but not too heavy. And the compote is perfect. We are going to use the rest on some waffles tomorrow. Thanks Sarah!!
