Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup blanched almond flour
- 1 cup tapioca flour
- 2 apple pie spice
- 1 ¼ tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp sea salt
- 1 cup North Coast Organic (Unsweetened Applesauce)
- 4 eggs (whisked)
- ¼ cup coconut sugar (maple sugar)
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 medium honeycrisp apple (diced small)
- For cooking: ghee or avocado oil
For the apple topping
- 1 large apple (diced)
- 1 Tbsp ghee
- Small pinch cinnamon
- 1/8 tsp sea salt
Optional toppings:
- Sliced nuts
- Maple syrup or honey
Instructions
- Combine the blanched almond flour, tapioca flour, baking soda, sea salt, and spices in a small bow, breaking up any chunks of almond flour with a fork.
- Stir in the vanilla, applesauce, eggs, and sugar until all the ingredients are combined – but be careful not to over-mix.
- Allow the batter to sit for a few minutes while you prepare the apple topping.
- For the apple topping, melt the 1 Tbsp ghee in a small skillet. Add the apple chunks, a pinch of cinnamon and sea salt. Cook for about 10 minutes over medium-low heat, until the apples are soft, stirring often.
- While the apples are cooking, make the pancakes: in a large skillet, heat 1 Tbsp of ghee or avocado oil. Once hot, add the pancakes with a ¼ – ? cup scoop. Cook for about 3 minutes each side, until you begin to see tiny bubbles popping up on the first side and the pancakes are golden brown.
- Serve immediately with the apple topping, some sliced nuts and maple syrup if you like!
