Scale
Ingredients
For the Pancakes
- 3/4 cup whole, unsalted cashews, packed in the measuring cup
- 5 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoons fine salt
- 1/2 cup filtered water (more as needed)
For the Low Carb Date Syrup
- 6 large, pitted dates
- 1 1/2 cup filtred water
- 10 tablespoon liquid coconut oil
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Instructions
- Soak your cashews in water (not the one in the ingredient list) for at least 30 minutes. Drain the water and place the cashews in your blender.
- Add in the eggs, water, vanilla, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Blend until smooth, about 45 seconds on high.
- Heat a non-stick or seasoned cast iron skillet over medium heat. When it comes to temperature (it’s hot), begin making the pancakes. Very important that your skillet is pre-heated!!!!! The batter on a cold skillet will result in crepes.
- 3 tablespoons of batter per pancake. Cook until the top is filled with bubbles, then use a thin spatula to flip over and cook another minute or two.
- Repeat until all the batter is used up. Should make 12 large but thin pancakes. You can always make 24 smaller ones if you find them easier to flip.
- To make the Low Carb Date Syrup
- Soak the pitted (seeds removed) dates in the 1 1/2 cup of water overnight.
- Pour the date and water mix into your blender, add the liquid coconut and add in the vanilla. Blend on high until completely smooth.
- Store in a glass jar in the fridge. It will become solid in the fridge, just sit at room temp to soften or gently heat to liquify again.
