Pancakes

- Cook on small heat until lightly brown on one side, then carefully flip using a silicone spatula.
- Continue cooking on the other side until done, making sure not to burn it.
- Remove pancake from the skillet using a silicone spatula and stack on a wide plate.
- Repeat the entire process until the whole butter is gone, making sure to add 1/2 tsp of butter before each pancake.
Toppings / Decoration
- One the pancakes are ready, let’s cook the apple slices.
- Use a kitchen knife to slice the apple in thin round slices and add them into the heated pan.
- Add 1 tsp of butter and only cook the apple slices on one side. You can even add one sprinkle of vanilla powder if you want.
- Portion the pancakes into 4 servings, decorating each one with 3-4 slices of cooked apples. Add one big raspberry on top and 1 tbsp of cranberries as a side.
- Ta-daa! You are now ready yo eat delicious pancakes.

- nut butters – cashew butter or peanut butter (organic please)
- melted dark chocolate
- home chocolate mousse prepared using coconut
- low-carb marmalade or jam (no additives and preservatives, please!)
- creme fraîche or sour cream (40% fat and grass-fed, preferably unpasteurized)
