Ingredients:

• 3 eggs
• ½ C light coconut milk
• 1 C applesauce (look for no sugar added)
• 3 T softened butter, ghee or coconut oil
• 2 t apple cider vinegar
• 1 t vanilla extract
• 6 T coconut flour
• 4 scoopsVital Performance™ Vanilla Protein
• 1 t ground cinnamon
• Large pinch of ground nutmeg

• ½ t baking soda

• Optional for topping: warm apple slices and maple syrup

Directions:

1. Add the eggs, coconut milk, applesauce, butter, apple cider vinegar, and vanilla extract to a large blender. Blend on high until very smooth.
2. Add the coconut flour, protein powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking powder, baking soda and sea salt to the blender. Blend again to incorporate. Stop to scrape down the sides and allow the coconut flour to be fully absorbed. Blend again on high until you have a smooth and thick batter.
3. Heat a wide skillet over medium to medium-low heat (the pan used may cause this to vary slightly). Grease lightly with additional butter and drop the batter into pancake shapes, 4-6" in size. Spread the batter out slightly and allow the pancakes to cook until bubbles appear on the surface and the edges begin to brown. Flip and cook until browned on the other side.
4. Remove to a cooling rack for 3-5 minutes before serving. Repeat with the remaining batter.

Directions:

1. Add the peanut butter, honey, butter, and vanilla extract to a medium saucepan. Place over medium heat and stir until melted.
2. Remove from the heat and add the cacao powder, protein powderand whole rolled oats. Stir vigorously until well-mixed.
3. Use a cookie scoop to drop balls of the dough onto a lined sheet pan. Place in the freezer or refrigerator until firm, about 15 minutes. Store in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
