Paleo Coconut Banana Pancakes

Thanks to Jay & Sarah, My Kitchen Rules Contestants - for this wonderful recipe.

Sunday morning pancakes are our family ritual – we make a morning of it, and get the kids in the kitchen to help out. If you want to try something new, give these banana pancakes a try. They are super easy to make and the banana sweetness is a treat.

Paleo Coconut Banana Pancakes

Serves 4

Ingredients

4 bananas, mashed

8 eggs

4 Tablespoons Matakana SuperFoods Coconut Flour

2 teaspoons baking powder (GF)

1 teaspoon of cinnamon

1 Tablespoon of Matakana SuperFoods Extra Virgin Coconut Oil

METHOD

Mash the bananas with a fork until no lumps remain. Beat in the eggs with the fork, then add the coconut flour and baking powder, mix until you have a smooth batter.
Heat a large non stick frying pan over a medium to low heat, add 1 teaspoon of coconut oil or butter to the pan.
Drop 2 tbs spoonfuls of batter onto the hot frying pan. Cook for 2 minutes, flip the pancakes over and cook for a further 1-2 minutes.
Top with fresh fruits and Coconut Nectar ( a delicious natural sweetener similar to maple syrup or honey) or natural maple syrup and enjoy.

TIPS

You’ll get best results with this recipe if you use ripe bananas: go for the ones that already have brown spots they have a sweeter flavour and are easier to mash. For this particular recipe you’ll also find it easier to make smaller pancakes so they don't break when you flip them.

Why you need to be buying gelatinised not raw maca powder

Maca is one of those superfoods that requires a little more processing in order for our digestive systems to be able to extract its beneficial nutrients. That is why gelatinised maca is the only type of maca you should be spending your money on, as without going through this extra milling process most of the raw maca you may be consuming will simply go straight through you and out the other end - not so great for your health or your wallet!

The consumption of probiotics has become popular as health practitioners and consumers alike recognise the value to health of a healthy gut microflora. But taking probiotics is only one part of the story – what we eat can either help or hinder the growth of healthy probiotics in our gut – and unless we feed them the correct types of nutrients in our daily diet we may be throwing our money down the sink.

Five reasons why you need Instant Quinoa Powder in your life!

Quinoa (keen-wah) is one of the world’s most popular health foods. It’s gluten-free, high in protein and one of the few plant foods that contain all nine essential amino acids. These are considered “essential” as our bodies do not make them and therefore need to be obtained from our diet.

Refined sugars, such as sucrose and high fructose corn syrups, are known to be bad for you as they contain a high level of calories with no essential nutrients (hence being known as 'empty calories'). Ingesting high levels of refined sugar results in a spike in your blood-glucose levels. Having too much glucose in your bloodstream is highly toxic and can lead to a barrage of disorders such as insulin resistance, type II diabetes, weight gain and heart disease.
