I love fruit and all the ingredients in this quick and effortless ‘pick me up’ as I would like to call it. Make it an enjoy for breakfast, afternoon with warm cup of something or any time really!
If you fear that the cooked fruit will not be sweet enough for you, add a tbsp of coconut sugar when you put it in the pan to cook with the water.
Ingredients (serves 2)
- 40g almond flour
- 75g buckwheat flour
- 250ml coconut milk
- 25g coconut sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp baking powder
To serve:
- 1 large cooking apple, peeled, cored, chopped and cooked slowly in a covered pan over low heat with 1 tbsp water.
- 2 Victoria plums, washed, stoned each cut in 6 pieces cooked in a covered pan with 1 tbsp water.
- 2 pieces of stem ginger, roughly chopped
- Syrup from the stem ginger jar
Method
In a bowl, mix the flour, coconut sugar, baking powder and salt.
Add the vanilla to the coconut milk, stir and empty into the dry ingredients. Whisk for a minute to incorporate everything and create a smooth batter. Leave to rest for 5 minutes.
Bring a small frying pan of 15cm diameter to a medium heat. Add a few drops of olive oil and pour half the batter. Cook over low heat until the surface looks firm and with the help of a greased lid or large spatula, turn the pancake over and cook again on the other side till crispy and brown.
Eat warm with the fruit on top drizzled with some of the syrup from the stem ginger jar.
