Paleo Pumpkin Coconut Pancakes {GF, Paleo}

Flourless Paleo Pumpkin Coconut Pancakes made with almond butter, coconut flour and bananas! These thick, cake-like pancakes are perfect for a hearty breakfast! Gluten Free + Paleo + Low Calorie

I can’t believe Thanksgiving is next week already. This year has zipped by like no other. Honestly, I am really grateful it has gone by so quickly because it has been a no-good, rotten year. I want this year over with and behind me.

I also want the toxic people out of my life who have not supported me in my fight to regaining my health. If there’s one thing I learned during my 80 pound weight loss, it’s that you will have haters along the way. People, who for whatever reason, are unhappy with themselves and take it out on others. All I have to say is if you can’t play nice, leave the playground and go play with your unhappy self. But enough of that rant.

Last Thanksgiving I was suffering with unbearable ankle pain that went undiagnosed by 3 orthopedic surgeons. They didn’t know it at the time, but I had a stress fracture. That stress fracture kicked off a year of medical ups and downs. Now a year later, I feel like things have come full circle and this is my closure. Time to be thankful, pray and move forward.

Something I am thankful for is you guys. Your continued support and love has been amazing! These last few months have been hard and you’ve given me a lot of love with your emails, texts, tweets and comments. If only you lived closer, I would repay you with good food.

You know I have dreams of having all my closest virtual friends over for brunch. Everyone is eating, laughing and having a good time. Corny right?

But if you were here brunching with me, I’d be serving you these flourless, cake-like pancakes stuffed with nut butter and coconut. Until we have that brunch date, grab your spatula and get ready to make the best pancakes of your life.

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
• 1/2 cup almond butter creamy (I like the Target brand)
• 1/4 cup coconut oil melted
• 1/2 cup coconut flour
• 2 bananas very ripe
• 5 egg whites
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 1 tsp almond extract
• 1/4 tsp sea salt
• 1/2 tbsp pumpkin pie spice
• 1/2 tbsp cinnamon
• 1/2 tsp nutmeg
• 1/2 tsp ginger

Instructions

1. Add bananas, almond butter, oil, egg whites and almond extract to food processor. Process until bananas combine smooth with other ingredients.

2. Add the remaining ingredients and process to combine. Do not over process.

3. Heat a skillet to medium-low heat and spray with cooking spray. Add the batter to skillet by scooping the batter with a 1/4 cup measuring cup and placing on the skillet. 1/4 cup makes 1 pancake.

4. Cook 5 minutes until the pancakes set up. They will take longer than whole grain pancakes due to the coconut flour so be patient. 

5. Carefully flip and cook another 3-4 minutes until completely set. They will be fragile due to the coconut flour.

6. Remove form the skillet and place on a wire rack while you cook the remaining batter. 

7. Enjoy immediately or keep in the refrigerator up to 7 days. Freeze up to 60 days.
