These AIP pancakes are everything pancakes should be: soft and fluffy! The combination of banana with a little bit of maple syrup adds the perfect amount of sweetness. With this recipe only taking 20 minutes to make and prep these AIP pancakes are the perfect weekend treat.
I first did AIP about 5 year ago. Since doing AIP, I was able to switch to more of a paleo diet by just avoiding dairy and gluten, however a few months ago eggs started bothering me again so I have been avoiding them. With that said, I was dying to come up with an egg free pancake recipe and that is how this recipe came about.
What Do I Need To Make AIP Pancakes?
- Cassava flour-Cassava flour is the closest flour to wheat flour. It is sticky and has a similar texture, however not all brands are created equally. That is why I only use Otto’s. This recipe has only been tested with Otto’s therefore I do not suggest using another brand.
- Tapioca flour-Tapioca flour is a great thickening agent in paleo cooking. Think of it as similar to corn starch.
- Baking soda-Baking soda will help these pancakes stay fluffy!
- Banana-Banana will help keep these pancakes moist, you can substitute for canned pumpkin if desired.
- Apple cider vinegar-ACV is a good texture enhancer.
- Maple syrup-Maple syrup is my sweetener of choice when it comes to AIP baking.
- Coconut milk-Coconut milk will help keep these pancakes moist.
- Water-Water will help prevent the pancakes from getting too thick.
How Do I Make These AIP Pancakes?
- These pancakes are super easy and simple!
- First, place all ingredients in a food processor and blend until smooth. If the mixture appears to be too thick, add a little bit of water.
- Spray a non-stick pan with avocado oil or you AIP cooking oil of choice.
- Add two tablespoons to the pan and flatten the pancake with a spatula.
- Cook the pancakes for 2 minutes on each side on medium heat.
- Continue to do this until you run out of pancake batter.
Can I Save These Pancakes For Later?
- Yes, absolutely! You can store them in the refrigerator in an airtight glass container for up to a week.
Can I Freeze The Pancakes?
- Yes! I suggest freezing them in a single layer on a baking sheet for 2 or so hours, then stacking them in a glass container with wax paper between each layer.
What Kind Of Toppings Should I Use?
- I love using fresh berries, raspberry jam and AIP whipped cream.
