Kick-start your new year with a few essential Paleo recipes. Daniel Green, a.k.a. The Model Cook, has refined his caveman-friendly repertoire with his latest book The Paleo Diet. That's right, a really good Paleo cookbook has a killer pancakes recipe. You might never use white flour in yours again. 

Pancakes always make a delicious weekend brunch — and who says you can't have them on a Paleo diet? Simply replace regular flour with coconut and almond flour and you can achieve light, fluffy, gluten-free results.

Paleo Pancakes With Berries And Maple Syrup Recipe
Total time: 35 minutes
Ingredients
  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 1 tablespoon coconut flour
  • 3 eggs
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/3 cup prune juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
  • olive oil spray
  • 1 1/2 cups fresh berries
  • 1 tablespoon grade B maple syrup or melted raw honey
Directions
  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk the flours, eggs and water together until you have a smooth batter.
  2. Any lumps should soon disappear with a little mixing.
  3. Whisk in the prune juice and nutmeg, and set aside for a minute or two.
  4. Place a nonstick frying pan over medium heat, and allow to get hot — about 2 or 3 minutes.
  5. Spray the pan with a little oil and add a spoonful of batter (it is best not to crowd the pan, so make these pancakes one at a time).
  6. Let the batter bubble a little and cook for a minute, then flip and cook for 1-2 minutes on the reverse side.
  7. Turn onto a plate and serve with fresh berries and a drizzle of maple syrup or honey.
  8. When you make these pancakes, try and cook them as soon as the batter is made, as the coconut flour can swell and thicken over time — it doesn’t keep overnight.
  9. The paleo plan cuts out all processed, refined sugars, but does allow a few natural sweeteners. The best types to use are grade-B maple syrup, which is 100% pure and distilled naturally, and raw honey, which is again unprocessed, and contains all the nutrients the bees put into it.
