Blueberry Coconut Pancakes... Breakfast Anyone?

Pretty hard to believe that even something like pancakes can be paleo right? That's what I thought... but when I saw this recipe I thought I had to give it a try.

We are nearing the home stretch of our paleo challenge at FireForce, so what better way to step up your game then with a nice big breakfast. Or maybe you want to make a "breakfast" for dinner, why not.

Ingredients

3 Eggs
3 Tbs Melted Coconut Oil
1/2 Cup plus 2 Tbs Coconut Milk
1/2 tsp Honey
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp Salt
1/2 Cup Coconut Flour
1 tsp Baking Soda
1/2 Cup Water
(Optional ingredients are highly recommended...
 without these pancakes would be very interesting)

Optional Ingredients

Flaked Coconut
Blueberries
Nuts
Cinnamon

Instructions

In a large bowl whisk your eggs, oil, coconut milk, honey and vanilla.

Mix in your dry ingredients: coconut flour, salt, and baking soda.

Next, add the water to thin the batter out until it reaches your desired consistency. 
(I ended up adding more than the recommended 1/2 cup water)
 Here is where you can add your blueberries if you should choose, or maybe walnuts as well.

In a well oiled pan or griddle, cook your pancakes until they are browned on both sides. 
I will warn you these can be tricky to flip, so the smaller the better in this case.

Top with 100 percent organic maple syrup for a delicous meal!
