Almond and cinnamon paleo pancakes make a delicious healthy, gluten and dairy-free breakfast and they freeze well too.

Almond and cinnamon paleo pancakes

When I was pregnant with our first baby, I had a very quiet night. Generally I’m not all that into NYE anyway but we did have plans.

I didn’t really get to spend it with my husband.

Unless you count taking him Vegemite toast and flat lemonade and checking in on him sleeping.

I still had a lovely night.

My sister and her man let me crash their night.

We started with a friendly game (as friendly as anything competitive can be) of scrabble.

Mum and Dad had people over (we were all staying at their place at the coast) for drinks and nibbles at 7pm.

We mingled with them for a little while before they headed out to dinner at 8.30pm.

When they headed off, my sister got to work in the kitchen.

She whipped up a delicious dish of turkey meatballs with a pesto sauce made of avo and zucchini ribbons as pasta.

We helped ourselves to dessert and I intended on just two squares of my Pana Chocolate but ended up knocking off the whole block.

It was only about 11pm by this time but we were all pooped and decided to call it a night.

The best thing was that I woke up bright and early on the first day of 2014 feeling great.

After a walk waddle on the beach I got home and was offered up freshly-made almond and cinnamon Paleo pancakes.

My sister was on a roll with her cooking.

Most Paleo pancake-like things that I’ve tried haven’t really pleased me so I asked for just one.

I regretted it after the first mouthful.

It was light and fluffy, had a lovely pancake texture and didn’t leave that heavy feeling that pancakes usually give me.

I may have later scoffed the leftover pancake I found in the fridge.

She altered the recipe a little and served them with coconut yoghurt and berries.

In the pics here, I topped the stack off with raspberry jam but pretend it’s just fresh berries to make it Paleo.

These freeze well too.

Just wrap them in a tea towel and microwave or leave to defrost on the bench then give them a quick heating in the pan to serve.

Even if you’re not sticking to any sort of eating regime, you still must try these.

I insist.

Enjoy!
