Grain Free Pancakes

Grain free. Refined sugar free. Seed oil free. Flour free. Gluten free.

And these pancakes are AMAZING.

I love a good Sunday brunch with eggs, pancakes, and bacon. But I dislike the bloat and tiredness that comes from the processed carbs. What I do like is being able to eat a full meal, feel very satisfied and comfortable, and then continue my day without a nap or lying down.

These pancakes don't weigh you down a bit. You will feel great afterwards! Your clothes will not become extra tight and you will have lots of energy.

Because these grain free pancakes have felt like such a treat, I've been serving them up with a "healthy frosting" that I sweeten with honey. (I believe honey has huge benefits to the human body and is an entirely different sweetener than white sugar or corn syrup which wreak havoc on the body.)

I can't take all the credit for this recipe. I saw this on an Instagram post from a group called Heart and Soil. I put my batter in a blender; they mash theirs up in a bowl. Both ways turn out great!

You do not need to wait for your bananas to get ripe to make this recipe. I've used ripe bananas and bananas with some green, and both turn out great.

This recipe can be very easily doubled or tripled. Just be sure to add a little extra butter to the pan when adding new batter!
