Banana Pancakes

Banana Pancakes

June 13, 2017

Everyone remembers the pancake breakfasts they used to have on the weekend as a kid; some of us still have them as adults!
I don't eat foods with gluten or ingredient lists as long as my arm, so here is a healthier alternative that's still easy and cheap to make with all of your favourite flavours! 

Ingredients
  • 2 bananas 
  • 3 eggs 
  • 1/4 cup coconut milk 
  • 2 tbsp coconut flour 
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon 
  • Dash of real vanilla extract 
  • 5g unsalted organic butter 
  • 1 tbsp coconut cream, chilled 

Directions 
  1. In a mixing bowl, mash up the bananas so that they are smooth. 
  2. In a smaller bowl, crack open the eggs and whisk them, then place them in the bowl with the bananas. 
  3. Add in the coconut milk, cinnamon and vanilla extract and whisk until combined. 
  4. Heat a pan on medium heat and add in the butter. Once melted, place spoonfuls of the pancake mixture and cook on one side until small bubbles form, then flip and cook for a further minute. 
  5. Repeat the process until all of the batter has been used. 
  6. I like to have mine with a tablespoon of coconut cream, but feel free to mix it up and use some berries, baked apples or some more bananas on top! 
Enjoy!

Morning Coffee

Morning Coffee

May 18, 2017

This one is for all you caffeine addicts out there! There are so many ways you can have your coffee in the morning, you've got cappuccinos, lattes, long back, short black, piccolo, and so many more. Lately I've been a huge fan of the Bulletproof coffee, the real one with the correct beans, grass fed butter and coconut oil. It's a great way to get your fats up for the day and I find that I have more focus without the jittery feeling after one to many cups. 

Ingredients:

  • 1 serve fresh brewed coffee 
  • 5g grass fed, unsalted butter 
  • 1 tbsp unrefined coconut oil 
  • 12g Great Lakes Gelatin (optional)

Method:
  1. Pour brewed coffee into a warm blender.
  2. Add in butter, coconut oil and gelatine.
  3. Blend on high for 10 seconds until a froth layer forms on top.

Enjoy!
