PALEO BANANA MACADAMIA NUT PANCAKES

Banana macadamia nut pancakes were popular in our house long before we adopted a Paleo diet.  Since bananas are the main ingredient in Paleo pancakes, it seemed only natural that we ought to be able to make a macadamia nut version.

Ingredients

Three bananas
Three large eggs
1/2 cup almond butter
1/4 cup chopped macadamia nuts
Coconut oil

• Chop your macadamia nuts into small pieces.
• In a medium sized bowl, mash the three bananas.
• Add the almond butter and eggs and stir until well blended.
• Melt a teaspoon or so of coconut oil in a large skillet.  Spread the oil evenly over the skillet with a spatula.
• Drop spoonfuls of batter into the oil to make 4" pancakes.
• Cook over medium heat until golden brown on the bottom (usually when bubbles pop and the batter no longer fills the hole.)
• Turn over and cook for another minute or so on the other side.

Serve with real maple syrup or your favorite fruit.
