Fall Pancakes:

Today is the first day of fall and it would only be fitting to have some grain free banana pumpkin apple pie pancakes. And these pancakes can be prepped ahead of time. So that you have breakfast already ready to go for those busy mornings.

Ingredients you will need:

  1. Pumpkin puree
  2. Ripe bananas
  3. Eggs
  4. Milk of choice ( I used almond mylk)
  5. Mac-coconut nut butter (or any nut butter you use)
  6. Vanilla extract
  7. Baking soda
  8. Almond flour
  9. Coconut flour
  10. Flaxseed meal or chia seeds
  11. Pumpkin spice seasoning
  12. Apple pie seasoning 
  13. Fourth and Heart Vanilla Madagascar ghee or coconut oil

Are there any substitutions?

For this recipe if you don’t have the pumpkin spice you can use nutmeg, ginger, ground cloves, and cinnamon. I would suggest doing about 1/4 tsp for each. If you don’t have the ghee you can substitute coconut oil or butter. But I have not played around with different flour combinations, so I can’t give you a substitute for those.

Steps for making pancakes:

First add the wet ingredients; eggs, bananas, almond mylk, pumpkin puree, vanilla extract, and mix. Then add in the dry ingredients, and mix. I like to let my batter sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes but this is totally optional. Heat your pan with the vanilla Madagascar ghee, add about 1/4 cup of the batter, and cook for a couple minutes on each side. And transfer to a plate (do not overlap) and let them rest for 5 minutes.

How to make sautéed apples:

You get the best of both worlds with this recipe. Because not only do you have pumpkin pie pancakes. But you are topping it with apple pie seasoned apples. Heat you pan with the vanilla Madagascar ghee or coconut oil on medium heat. Add diced apple and apple pie seasoning, and sauté for a few minutes.

Putting it all together:

Once everything is prepped, stack your pancakes, top with the apple pie apples, and drizzle Mac-cocconut butter all over. But if you don’t have the Mac-coconut butter, pecan butter is another great alternative.

Meal prep ahead of time:

These pancakes can be meal prepped ahead of time. But if making ahead of time, store everything separate.  I like to place my pancakes in one Tupperware and the diced apple pie apples in another. And the morning off, I add to my convection oven and reheat for a few minutes, top with apples, and drizzle Mac-coconut butter all over.
