Paleo plantain pancakes for the win!
Have I mentioned my latest obsession with plantains? Seriously. They’re cheap, healthy, and slightly sweet…perfect for Paleo baking!
Pssssst! Have you tried these other awesome (Paleo) plantain recipes?
Paleo Plantain Pancakes
Today I’m sharing not one, but two recipes. The first recipe for Paleo plantain pancakes is my favorite, but sometimes when I’m in a hurry I make the second version instead.
We love these Paleo Plantain Pancakes with my Homemade Blueberry Syrup. Another yummy variation is with fresh strawberries, maple syrup, and coconut whipped cream.
I often double the recipe and store leftovers in the fridge for pancakes all week long! These pancakes also freeze well. And they make an easy, healthy, and packable toddler food.

Description
Start the day out right with these nourishing, protein-packed pancakes.
Ingredients
- 2 plantains, peeled and sliced (I prefer yellow, but green will work, too)

- 1/2 cup coconut or almond milk
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1/4 cup coconut flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp unrefined sea salt
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Place plantains in a food processor and pureè.
- Add almond butter, milk and eggs. Mix well.
- Add remaining ingredients and mix well.
- If the batter is too thin, add more almond flour. If it’s too thick, add more liquid.
- Cook pancakes 2 to 4 minutes on each side, flipping gently.
- Serve with Homemade Blueberry Syrup or fresh fruit and maple syrup.

- I use a nonstick pancake griddle. It’s the only nonstick cooking surface I still allow in my kitchen, because ain’t nobody got time to cook one or two pancakes at a time in a skillet. Especially when feeding three growing boys and a husband!
When time is short, try this second variation of Paleo Plantain Pancakes: still yummy and nutritious, but with fewer ingredients.
