Ingredients

|
- First grind nuts/seeds together using the grinder attachment on your blender (for smoother end consistency). *A coffee grinder can be used to grind nuts/seeds.
- Mix all dry ingredients together in a bowl.
- Mash the Banana, and add to the dry ingredients, along with all the remaining wet ingredients and mix well using a wooden spoon or silicon spatula.
- Lastly, add and mix in the Nut Mix to the batter.
- Add a little Coconut Oil - or use non-toxic baking paper/parchment paper - to a med-high heat pan and spoon the mixture into flapjack pancakes shapes.
- Cook on medium heat until slightly browned on both sides. Turn down heat until cooked right through.
*Enjoy straight away!
*Store pancake batter sealed in a glass jar in the fridge (if not cooking immediately). Eat within 1-2 days
*Serving Suggestions:
-Serve with fresh sliced banana, or your choice of fresh fruit and drizzle with a syrup or honey.
-You can also add some Coconut Yogurt, or Sweet Vanilla Cream Sauce as a topping.
-You can also serve with Chocolate Filling Sauce OR Caramel Filling Sauce.
*Choose the cleanest ingredients possible:
-Choose spray-free/organic fresh produce for fresh ingredients where possible, and if buying conventional, rinse in diluted white vinegar water to remove.
-Choose dry ingredients (i.e. nuts, seeds, dried fruits ) that are spray-fee/organic where possible, and which don’t have preservatives such as sulphur dioxide.
- Choose virgin, cold-pressed Coconut Oil in glass where possible. It should be pure white in colour. Do not choose cheaper, deodorised/neutral flavoured coconut oils that are off-white.
-Choose Coconut Cream and Coconut Milk that is clean/free from additives, preservatives and E numbers. Plain Coconut Cream/Milk is better than the ones with added guar gum as this changes the consistency of recipes. You can use Nut Milk as an alternative.
-Choose to homemade Nut Milk instead of buying. Most store bought ones have additives and stabilisers. Quick Tip: It’s easy to make your own: just grind ¼ cup nuts, then blend with 1 cup water.
-Choose whole fruits over optional sweeteners if you need to add more sweetness. My preferred choice is Date Paste (pre-soaked Dates). Quick Tip: Keep a jar filled with Dates covered with water, in the fridge ready to go and use as is (instead of actually blending to make Date Paste).
