Well well well. The festive flair was bound to kick in sooner or later, and along with discovering a 'rubbish free' mincemeat so I can soon invent paleo mince pies, I made THESE!
Sometimes I have to pat myself on the back haha! (if you want to make these for kids, just omit the hemp protein and add a little more coconut flour.)
For the Pancakes.
- 2 eggs
- 1 heaped tsp natural blackstrap molasses
- 1 1/2 cups Almond Flour (Ground Almonds)
- 2 tbsp Coconut Flour
- 1 scoop Unflavoured Hemp Protein
- 2 heaped tsp ginger
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 cup coconut palm sugar
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
For the Topping
- 1 Tbsp Creamed Coconut Melted
- 1 Tbsp Cashew Butter
- 1/2 tsp Cinnamon
- a drop of Vanilla
- 1 heaped tsp Raw Chocolate Tropical Nut Spread (or similar)
- Handful of Pecans
- Sprinkle of Raw Cacao Nibs
* Heat a good non stick pan on low.
* Mix eggs and molasses well in a bowl. the molasses will take a while to mix well, if you're struggling, add your almond flour now.
* Add almond flour, coconut flour, protein, ginger, cinnamon and sugar and mix.
* Now add your almond milk slowly until you get a thick cakey mixture.
* Spread your pancakes into whatever shape you wish (grab a gingerbread man cookie cutter and add it to your frying pan to make your pancakes fun for your kids!)
* Allow to cook slowly until bubbles appear across the top, then flip.
* While your pancakes are cooking, mix together your melted creamed coconut and cashew butter, cinnamon and vanilla until smooth.
* Once all your pancakes are cooked, pile them up, scoop your chocolate spread on, pour over your cashew cream mixture and sprinkle over your pecans and cacao nibs...
Most importantly, ENJOY! These guys may be my favourite invention yet. PERFECT for Christmas! And taking out the protein they are perfect for all the family for Christmas morning!

Paleo Pumpkin Protein Bread
Hey guys,
So, as an avid baker Autumn/Winter is an exciting time for me. Unfortunately it generally leads to one too many slips, so I was determined to get my yummy baking fix while keeping things healthy!
I came up with this amazing yumminess! I'm so proud of the result, it's genuinely so tasty and moist, and was perfect as a snack with some Almond Butter...
- 1 can Pumpkin Purée
- 4 Eggs
- 1 cup Coconut Oil melted
- 2/3 cup Almond Milk
- 3 heaped Tbsp Natural Set Honey
- 3 cups Almond Flour (Ground Almonds)
- 2 scoops (4 Tbsp) Natural Unflavoured Hemp Protein Powder
- 2 tsp Baking Soda
- 2 tsp Cinnamon
- 2 tsp Nutmeg
- 1 tsp Cloves
- 1 1/2 tsp Ginger
* Pre heat oven to 170'c.
* Combine the pumpkin and eggs and mix well until evenly combined.
* Add the melted coconut oil and stir in well so it doesn't get chance to cook your eggs, then add your almond milk.
* Add your almond flour, hemp protein, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and ginger and mix well until you get an even, thick mixture.
* It should smell AMAZING already (and taste it, go on, lick the spoon), but on the off chance you're even more of a flavour junkie, throw in some more spices... Why not?!)
* Pour mixture into a lined, large, loaf tin.
* Bake for 50 mins.
* Enjoy the wonderful smell.
* Once cooked (it will still seem a little wobbly), LEAVE TO COOL slightly. This is important as it allows the loaf to firm up enough to manouvre out of the tin whilst staying moist inside.
* Loosen around edges of tin, carefully turn loaf out into your hand then onto a cooling rack.
* Badaboom.
