Servings 2

Ingredients
  

Pumpkin Spice Pancakes

  • butter for frying pan coconut oil for dairy-free option
  • 1/4 cup + 1 tablespoon coconut flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ginger
  • dash allspice
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/4 cup pumpkin puree
  • 3 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • extra maple syrup butter, and yogurt to serve

Maple Caramelized Pears

  • 1/2 medium pear cored and thinly sliced
  • 1 teaspoon raw coconut oil
  • 1 teaspoon maple syrup
  • sprinkle sea salt

Instructions
 

  • In a medium bowl, whisk coconut flour, baking soda, sea salt, nutmeg, cinnamon, ginger, and allspice until fully blended. In a large bowl, whisk eggs, pumpkin puree, almond milk, and maple syrup until completely incorporated. Whisk dry ingredients into wet, mixing just until fully blended.
  • Heat a non-stick or cast-iron frying pan over medium flame, adding butter to coat the pan. When butter sizzles to a flick of water, add batter in 1/4 cup scoops, spreading into circles. Let cook 2-3 minutes. When bubbles appear, flip and cook a minute or two on the other side. Remove once appropriately browned. Remove from pan and keep warm in heated oven while you cook the rest.
  • Once all pancakes are done, wipe any crumbs from the pan, and add a teaspoon of coconut oil and a teaspoon of maple syrup to the pan. Swirl to mix and coat the pan. Place pear slices in a single layer in the pan, and let them sear and caramelize, about 5 minutes, or until caramelized and browned to your liking. Remove from heat.
  • Serve pancakes with caramelized pears, yogurt, and maple syrup, or as you like!
