Directions for Pancakes
  1. Whisk together the following ingredients: Coconut flour, flaxseed, baking soda, stevia, and vanilla whey protein. 
  2. Add eggs, milk, and pureed strawberries. 
  3. Whisk together well and let batter sit for a few minutes. If the consistency is to thick add a Tbs of milk at a time. If it's to thin add 1 Tbs of coconut flour. 
  4. Stir in White Chocolate Chips
  5. If you would like a red pancake (instead of pink) add food coloring until the desired color has been reached. 
  6. Spray pan with coconut oil. Heat pan to medium low. Using the 1/4 size measuring cup scoop up batter then pour to create pancakes that are about 3 inches in diameter. 
  7. Cook for approximately 3 minutes, flip and cook an additional 2-3 minutes. 
  8. Let cool, then top with Blueberry Coconut Whipped Cream and sprinkle on slivered almonds. 
Directions for Blueberry Coconut Whipped Topping
  1. Prepare topping the prior night. Using a spoon, scoop out cream from the can of coconut. Discard the water that's at the bottom of the can. 
  2. Do not whisk or use an electric mixer to whip it up... it will become runny again.
  3. Instead, using a spoon fold in the diced blueberries. Mix in a couple drops of blue food coloring. Now for the swirl effect... add a couple drops each of the red and blue. Using a toothpick swirl each color throughout the cream. Place a cover on it and put back in the refrigerator to set overnight. 
Enjoy!!
