Son of Grok Pancakes...


Made this recently using my son of grok waffle recipe. I think it tastes so much better as a pancake fried with butter :). Just made half of the recipe since It's just me and the hubs. Had to share a pretty pic too! Ate them with fresh berries and maple syrup. Here is the link to the recipe. So sad his website got closed down. Good thing I saved his recipe! 


Banana&Almond Butter Ice Cream (Paleo/Vegan)



I was trying to figure out how to make coconut ice cream with out eggs and was searching and searching the web and I couldn't find a recipe that was paleo friendly and wasn't to complicated. Partly because I didn't want to have to boil the mix and wait two hours before I could stick the mixture in the ice cream maker lol. My husband wanted to mix coconut ice cream with banana ice cream and see how that tasted so I just thought making coconut ice cream with bananas will still make a creamy texture without eggs! So here you go. It is AMAZINGLY GOOOOOOD! Sweet & salty goodness.

Ingredients:
3 frozen bananas, peeled and diced
12 oz of canned coconut milk
1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
1 teaspoon of maple syrup
1 to 2 tablespoons of salted almond butter

Add all ingredients except the almond butter to food processor. Mix well. Transfer to a ice cream maker and add almond butter five minutes before ice cream is finished. Tada! It is such a great combination of sweet from the bananas and salty from the almond butter. Makes a little over a pint. Enjoy.
