Notes
Variations
Fructose-friendly Replace the coconut sugar or rapadura with rice malt syrup and chose a low-fructose fruit (like blueberries). Dairy-free Choose either ghee or coconut-oil to coat your pan and coconut milk for the batter. Spelt and nut-free You can directly replace the grain-free flour for spelt flour or whole-wheat flour if you'd prefer. Another fruit? Entirely possible - replace the apple with sliced Beurre Bosc Pears and add a sprinkle of ginger powder over the fruit. Berries, banana or even pineapple is delicious.
