Gingerbread Lucuma Grain Free Pancakes [w/ a Caramel Coconut Tahini Ganache]

Here's another delicious, grain free, gluten free pancake recipe! These are high in protein, fiber and healthy fats, and they turned out super fluffy and moist! Topped with a caramel coconut tahini ganache, Pancake Sunday was complete!



Serves 1
Makes about 6, 3-inch pancakes

You will need:


Dry Ingredients:

• 1/4 cup coconut flour
• 1 tsp lucuma powder
• 1 tsp maca powder
• 1 tsp ginger
• 1/2 tsp cinnamon
• 1/8 tsp nutmeg
• 1/4 tsp baking powder
• optional: 1/2 tsp sweetener of choice

Wet Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup 100% egg whites (from the carton)
• 1/4 cup + 1 tbsp milk of choice
• 1 egg

Directions:

• Heat a pan over medium and melt a little coconut oil to coat the bottom.
• Whisk together the dry ingredients in a medium sized mixing bowl, then whisk in the wet ingredients.
• Continue to whisk until the clumps are gone and the batter is smooth, but thick and only slightly pourable.
• Turn down the heat slightly to medium low.
• For each pancake, pour a little under 1/4 cup of the batter onto the pan until it forms a circle.
• Let cook until bubbles form on the top, then flip and cook until both sides are nicely browned. 
• To achieve the fluff-factor, DO NOT press down the pancakes after flipping them. 
• Repeat with the rest of the batter until it's gone!

For the Caramel Coconut Tahini Ganache:

• 1 tsp lucuma powder
• 1/2 tbsp melted coconut butter
• 1/2 tbsp tahini

Directions:

• Combine all ingredients in a small bowl and stir until it reaches a smooth, pourable consistency. If it is too thick, add a tiny drizzle of warm water, stirring constantly, until it becomes pourable.

Enjoy! :)
