Quick Paleo Pankcakes
Scott Hagnas
August 2007

The first recipe that I wrote for the Performance Menu was Apple Cinnamon Paleo Pancakes. They were tasty, but a bit cumbersome to cook. I have since perfected a much quicker method, while keeping the flavor.

Time: 10 minutes

• 2 eggs
• 1/2 C unsweetened applesauce
• 1/2 C nut butter (not peanut butter! – cashew/macadamia nut butter works well)
• 1/4 tsp cinnamon
• 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
• coconut oil

Mix all of the ingredients except the coconut oil in a bowl. Stir well, until you have a uniform batter. Next, use a bit of coconut oil to grease a non stick skillet. Spread some of the batter into the skillet to form a pancake, then cook over low/medium heat. Flip after 1 to 2 minutes, being careful not to burn them!

Once you’ve cooked all of your pancakes, you can serve them with a variety of toppings. A few that I like: chopped apples and cinnamon; heated blueberries; real maple syrup; and unsweetened applesauce.

Zone info: 3 servings at 1/2 carb block, ~1/2 protein block, 15 fat blocks

Pumpkin Pie
Scotty Hagnas
December 2006

Time: 10 minutes prep, 45 minutes baking

• 3 1/2 C pumpkin puree
• 1/2 C unsweetened applesauce
• 2 eggs
• 1/4 C agave nectar
• 2 Tbsp ground almonds
• 1/2 tsp each of ginger, cloves, cinnamon, allspice, and nutmeg
• 1 C pecans

Combine all of the ingredients except the pecans in a bowl, mix well. Pour into a dish for baking pies. Cover with the pecans. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes.

If the pie is chilled before serving, it will cut and serve much better. It tends to crumble more easily if still warm.

Zone info: 6 servings at – 2.5 carb blocks, .5 protein block, 5.4 fat blocks
