Taste of Thursday with Petite Kitchen: Spiced Pear Skillet Pancake

Spiced Pear Skillet Pancake.

This gluten, dairy, and refined sugar free pancake is naturally sweetened with pears, and spiced up with a little cinnamon. The perfect breakfast to devour on these slightly colder Autumn mornings.

2 tbsp coconut oil (you could also use butter)
2 pears, peeled then diced
2 tbsp honey
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp pure vanilla bean paste (or vanilla extract)
4 eggs
1/2 cup almond milk (you could also use regular milk)
1/4 tsp baking soda
3 tbsp ground almonds
coconut flour for sprinkling (optional)

Preheat the oven to 180°C

In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, baking soda and ground almonds. Set aside.

In a iron skillet on medium heat, heat the oil until sizzling. Add the pears, honey, cinnamon, and vanilla. Cook, while stirring until softened and caramelized, about 6-7 minutes.

Carefully pour the egg mixture in to the skillet, then put in to the oven to bake for 15-20 minutes or until just cooked through.

Remove from the oven and leave to cool slightly. Sprinkle with coconut flour, then slice in to wedges.

Serves 2-3
