Guess what?? I wrote an ebook. Yup my very own ebook. I am so proud of this small accomplishment and can’t wait to write another. My book “25 Quick and Easy Paleo Meals” breaks down recipes into three categories, 15 minutes or less, 30 minutes or less, and 45 minutes or less. This guide can help you find the perfect meal to make for the time you have available! The number one complaint I hear is “I don’t have time to cook and eat healthy.” I understand being busy, and it can be hard to carve out time to cook. With this reference hopefully it will break down the idea that a home cooked meal has to take 2 hours. The best part… it’s free when you sign up for my newsletter!

My Paleo Pancakes for One is one of my absolute favorite pancake recipes. I used to make them almost every Saturday when I first went paleo. After two year, I thought the pancakes deserved a little bit of a makeover. I love hummingbird cake but only discovered its deliciousness a bit before going paleo. I haven’t had it since going paleo, and thought this pancakes base would be perfect since it uses shredded coconut. These tasty hummingbird cake pancakes are filled with pineapple, banana, coconut and pecans. I like to served them with a drizzle of maple syrup and a sprinkle of shredded coconut and pecans!

Hummingbird Cake Pancakes

Makes 12 pancakes

Ingredients

  • 5 eggs
  • 2 ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1 cup finely shredded coconut
  • 1/2 cup crushed pineapple, all juice squeezed out
  • 1/4 cup pineapple juice
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup pecan pieces
  • coconut oil, for frying

Directions

  1. In a mixing bowl, beat eggs until they are slightly frothy.
  2. Add bananas to eggs and mash the bananas into a paste.
  3. Next add the shredded coconut, crushed pineapple, pineapple juice, cinnamon and pecans.
  4. Stir until smooth.
  5. Heat a large flat skillet on medium heat.
  6. Cover surface with a thin layer of coconut oil.
  7. Use a cookie scoop to add batter to the pan. These do not spread like regular pancakes. Use the back of the cookie scoop to spread the pancakes into 3-4 inch circles.
  8. Let cook until you see small bubbles rise to the surface of the pancake and then flip.
  9. Cook for another minute.

  1. These sound delicious! Definitely putting these on our Saturday morning menu! Congrats on the ebook, definitely signing up for that newsletter!!

  4. Congrats on your e-book!! That’s an amazing accomplishment! I have that one on my to do list…in like a year? Haha. I have no idea how to go about doing that! These pancakes look amazing too. When I first looked at the recipe I couldn’t believe they were flourless! These will be on my to-do list TOMORROW. 🙂

    • Thank you!! I want to write another one already. I love these pancakes. The bananas, eggs and coconut come together to make them without flour!!

  5. Thanks for sharing and congrats on the book! These sound really yummy to me – except for the pineapple. I realize that this is what makes them ‘hummingbird’ pancakes – but is there an OK way to make them without those 2 ingredients?

    Thanks agai!

    • Thank you!! I would suggest this pancake recipe instead–http://www.plaidandpaleo.com/2013/06/paleo-banana-pancakes.html. I based the hummingbird pancakes on that recipes. You can sub in pecan pieces for the blueberries!

  6. These really sound yummy. I’ve been making pancakes with coconut flour. Do you have any idea about how much coconut flour would equal the 1 cup of shredded coconut?
