My perfect paleo pancake!

So this recipe has taken me nearly a year to perfect. Lots of mistakes using coconut and almond flour. I'm not fond of the taste of almond flour, and coconut flour is good for baking, but just stays too soft too long to make a good pancake. Out they go!

3tbsp flax meal, 
2tbsp shredded unsweetened coconut, 
1tbsp chia seeds,
1 whole egg
cinnamon and sweetener to taste, 
1/4cup water (maybe less, maybe more)

Stir until it's a nice batter consistency- let the chia and flax absorb some of the water.

Heat pan with a half tbsp coconut oil, pour in batter, then cook like a pancake! About 3 mins each side. The edges will get golden and crispy.

Top with honey, grassed butter, fruit..... 
EAT and feel awesome and full forever.

No time to pan-fry? NO PROBLEM. Microwave that batter for 1:30 in the container you mixed it in and watch it puff up into a beautiful flax muffin. Put the coconut oil in your coffee like a badass.
