Chia Matcha Pancakes with Strawberry Maple Coulis (paleo, GF)
This Chia Matcha Pancakes with Strawberry Maple Coulis recipe is an antioxidant packed Paleo pancake recipe made with almond flour, coconut flour, and bananas.
Servings: 6 pancakes
Ingredients
- 2 eggs
- a heaping 1/3 cup of mashed banana , this was 1 banana for me
- 2 Tbs ground chia seeds
- 1 Tbs coconut flour (Nutiva is my favorite)
- 1 Tbs almond flour
- 1 tsp matcha green tea powder
- ¼ tsp cinnamon
- ¼ tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp honey
- 1 cup of strawberries , sliced and halved
- 1 Tbs maple syrup
Instructions
- Mix all the ingredients together in a large bowl and whisk until everything is blended. OR Blend all the ingredients together in a blender.
- If you are using a blender, scrape the sides of the blender down with a spatula and blend everything together one more time.
- Before cooking the pancakes, put 1 tbs maple syrup and 1 cup of strawberries into a pan and heat over medium heat. Stir often for 8-10 minutes, then remove from heat and let your coulis cool a bit.
- Heat a large pan over medium heat. Put a little olive oil onto the pan and spread it around.
- Put small amounts of the batter onto the pan. I used 2 Tbs worth of batter to make each pancake (yields about 6 pancakes total). You probably will have to make these in two batches.
- Wait until the batter starts bubbling a bit (2-3 minutes) before flipping. Cook for about 30 seconds- 1 minute on the other side, or until golden brown.
- Note: depending on your stove top or your pan, these may cook more or less quickly, so just keep an eye on them.
- Top your pancakes in the strawberry coulis.
- Should yield about 6 pancakes, this serves 1 or 2.
