• 3 Eggs

• 3/4 cup Unsweetened Almond Milk

• 3 tbsp Maple Syrup (divided)

• ¾ Lemon (juiced and divided)

• 1 tsp Vanilla Extract

• 1/2 cup Coconut Flour

• 1/2 cup Arrowroot Powder

• 1 1/2 tsps Baking Powder

• 1/4 tsp Baking Soda

• 1/4 tsp Sea Salt

• 1 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil

• 1 tbsp Coconut Oil

• 1 Apple (cored and diced)

Directions:

1. In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, almond milk, 1/3 of the maple syrup, 1/3 of the lemon juice and vanilla until combined.

2. In a separate bowl, combine the coconut flour and arrowroot flour. Add to the wet mixture about 1/4 cup at a time, whisking thoroughly.

3. Mix in baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

4. Grease a large skillet with olive oil and place over medium heat. Once hot, pour pancakes in the skillet, about 3-inches wide.

5. Once small holes begin to appear in the surface of the pancake, sprinkle a few apple chunks onto it and flip over. Cook each side approximately 3-4 minutes. Repeat until batter is finished.

6. Heat coconut oil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add remaining apple chunks, cinnamon, the remaining 2/3 of the lemon juice and the remaining 2/3 of the maple syrup. Stir until combined.

7. Add almond flour and turn down to low-medium heat. Let simmer and stir occasionally for 3 to 5 minutes or until apple chunks are soft.

8. Top apple pancakes with chunky apple cinnamon sauce and enjoy!
