Pear (Pan)cakes

It was at a wine tasting when Nick and I started talking about my pear cake. It’s an almond flour-based cake full of fresh, ripe pears, and it’s one of our favorites. The thing is, I don’t have an oven right now.

So I decided to make these pear (pan)cakes and they were a delicious substitute. The fresh pear shined through the dish and it was warm and cake-like.

  • 2 pears, cored and smashed
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • pinch of salt
  • 1 cup almond meal/flour
  • avocado oil
  • 1 pear for topping
  • cinnamon
  • honey

Mix the two pears with the eggs, cinnamon, salt, and almond flour. Add the oil to a skillet pan on medium heat and cook your pancakes. (I like them extra crispy on the edges.

Top with sliced pears, a drizzle of honey, and a sprinkle of cinnamon.

Banana Pecan Pancakes

It’s been rainy here and I am LOVING it?!? Am I the only one that loves cold, rainy weather? While it doesn’t get cold down here, it is def gray and rainy and for me, that makes me think of home. And at home, usually if it’s rainy, it’s cold, too.

Anyhow, I made these pancakes and fell in love with them. And I generally don’t even love pancakes. But Nick does, and since I liked these too, you will for sure!   Top them with extra nuts and make a double batch so that you have some all week! Yum!ban pecan pan
