Do you remember my “Out” post? I came out to my readers a few months back. I felt it was important to show you who I am because full transparency allows an environment where all can be truly welcome. Removing walls removes stigmas and outreaches hands to fellow humans who need community. As a response…
My favorite mornings are spent in the kitchen creating a meal my family will enjoy around the table and sustain our apetites for all our adventures to come.
If you have been to my blog before you probably know I am a sucker for breakfast food. I mean, who doesn’t? Right? I just love taking my time in the morning and preparing a warm meal full of comfort and something hardy to sustain me through noon. These paleo apple cinnamon panakes hit the target!
I have made pancakes so many different ways but I often come back to this one–especially in the colder months. The warmth of the cinnamon with the bite of the pecan, paired with the crisp of the apple awakes a light inside me. My morning is made right, I am ready for the day, and best of all my tummy is nourished and happy.
Often times, I find bananas in a paper produce bag at a discount price at my local grocery store. These bananas have started to brown and make excellent pancakes and baked goods. I recommend keeping an eye out at your local grocery store for one of these bundles. I believe using this tip will save you a few!
In this recipe I use a blender or food processor to use the main ingredient (bananas) nice and creamy. However, IF you do not have access to one don’t worry! Simply mash the bananas with a fork. I find it easiest to mash the bananas in one by one and then add in the eggs. Once I get a few eggs in there for some reason the mashing gets a bit easier. Once the mixture is pretty smooth follow the remainder of the recipe card from there. Best of luck!

This pecan pie is deliciously sweet and perfectly rich. You are seriously not going to believe this healthier Paleo Pecan Pie is made without corn syrup and processed sugars! My recipe is packed with all the rich, creamy, quintessential pecan pie flavors, without the bad-for-you ingredients.
This Paleo Pecan Pie is simple to create. In fact, you can make everything from the crust to the filling in about 20 minutes. Not bad timing for a pie from scratch. Leave all the time-consuming holiday prepping for your turkey and sides!

My favorite part about this Paleo Pecan Pie is the way the sugars caramelize on top. I mean look at this next picture. It is the PERFECT crisp layer to top your pie. So how do you achieve this perfect pie topping? Simply pour the filling OVER the pecans when adding them to the pan. The pecans will float to the top, covered in maple syrup and coconut sugar, allowing the sugars to crisp and give the pecans an extra level of sweetness.
My money saving tip for this recipe is get your pecans in bulk. I used Sincerely Nuts brand as you can purchase their products in bulk. However, if you're in a pinch, and need to get your nuts and can't wait for shipping, look in the bulk section at your local grocery store. I used to purchase my nuts pre-bagged in the baking isle. However, I later learned it is SO much cheaper to go to the bulk isle (usually by the bins with the candy) and bag it myself. It's so much cheaper this way guys! Buy bulk!
