Banana Pancakes

4 eggs
4 egg whites
1 cup bananas, mashed (or ½ cup banana plus ½ cup applesauce)
½ cup almond flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
¼ cup coconut milk
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1-2 tablespoons coconut oil or butter for cooking
1 finely chopped apple (optional)

1.      Mix all ingredients in large bowl except cooking oil/butter.

2.      Heat a griddle or large skillet to medium heat and coat griddle/pan with butter or other fat source when hot.

3.      From here, traditional pancake rules apply with a slight modification. These will not bubble like your traditional pancakes. On medium heat the first side takes about 2-3 minutes to brown then another 1-3 minutes on the other side.
