    Thank you! For the coconut pancakes recipe. I LOVE it! It’s quick and easy and does not take up a lot of kitchen ingredients to use. Very efficient and tasty.

    These are delicious. I used a full small banana. They came out great. My boyfriend with Crohns loves these and they are a definite safe food for him. We eat them plain with butter. They have a semi-sweet banana bread-like taste and consistency. They refrigerate and reheat very well. I’m normally very picky about any recipes that use flour substitutions or recipes that are paleo/scd/etc. These are something that I would make and eat regularly even if no one in my house had any diet restrictions, and I wouldn’t change them.

    I just tried making these and while they tend to stick to the pan they’re pretty good! Can they be frozen? Can the mix be frozen before cooking?
    Thank you.

    Hi Keith, I completely understand why you feel this way. My team and I are actually adding the nutritional information to the recipes now. Be sure to be on the lookout for this in the near future!

      Hi Luisa, here are the egg substitutions I recommend: one egg = ½ mashed banana, ¼ cup applesauce, 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed meal + 3 tablespoons water; 1 tablespoon chia + 3 tablespoons water (allow both to sit for 10-15 minutes to thicken).

      Hi Mistral, here are the substitutions for one egg: one egg = 1/2 mashed banana, 1/4 cup applesauce, 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed meal + 3 tablespoons water; 1 tablespoon chia + 3 tablespoons water (allow both to sit for 10-15 minutes to thicken).

    Thanks for the recipe. I might add a pinch of sea salt to bring out the flavors (this is especially helpful with sweet things, paradoxically), and a dash of cinnamon and cardamom.

    I couldn’t figure out how to flip with spatula but used a plate the size of inside of the pan to turn crepe onto and then slid it back into pan and it worked fine, tasted great and was very filling!

    I’m just a little confused. I’m attempting to do the healing foods plan to heal leaky gut. I noticed on the healing diet honey is not allowed but this recipe is listed under gut health. So should I have honey or not?

    Can you tell me more about coconut milk? My local store sells cartons of coconut and almond milk. Is this what you mean or is it something that comes in a can?

      I typically recommend the coconut milk that comes in a can because there typically aren’t as many added ingredients. You can see the coconut milk I personally use if you click on the “coconut milk” link in the ingredients list.

        Unfortunately, the site you listed does not have coconut flour in their database so it is impossible to get an accurate nutritional picture.

        I just cooked some crepes like this you only need two table spoons of of Coconut flour 9carbs and 5 fiber per 2 table spoons(serving) I hope this helps. One bag goes a looonnnggg way I bought two 1 pound each and it only takes two table spoons.

    Good day.Thanks for the good medical write ups and advice you give .I am a lover of fruit juice made at home which I really do enjoy not to mention the health benefits I gain but I would like to know more about the foam that gathers on the fresh juice,is it good for the body? If not how do I get rid of it ?

      When juicing, your juicer may produce foam in the juice. The amount of the foam/froth depends on the type of juicer you use and what you’re juicing. Masticating juicers produce less foam compared to centrifugal juicers. And fibrous fruits/vegetables produce more foam compared to those with less fiber.
      When a juicer or blender spins at high-speed, it captures more air that mixes with the juice, causing the juice to be frothy with foam. A good portion of this foam is just trapped air bubbles. Consuming more air can result in gas and bloating but overall, it’s totally up to you and your personal preference as to whether or not you consume this portion or not.
