German Pancakes


German Pancakes

1/4 cup oil of choice (oil replaced 1 cube butter)
1 dozen eggs whipped (I used organic from my neighbor)
1 cup sunflower meal (almond meal works great also) or any kind of nut meal or nut flour)
1 cup ground coconut meat (optional, if omitting you may want to double the nut flour, you can find unsweetened coconut at a health food store, it has not powdered sugar)
dash of salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon

Pour oil in an 11x13 baking dish. Spread around and heat in 325* oven for 5 minutes.

In large mixing bowl, beat together all ingredients. Remove pan from oven, pour mixture into pan. Replace in oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, until sides start to pull away and center is starting to crack. Remove from oven, slice into squares and serve. My kids like maple syrup, honey, nut butters or puréed fruits on top. Serve with favorite topping, or none at all. Peach chutney is very good on top!! You can also replace the cinnamon with oregano, rosemary, thyme, any other spice or herb and make a dinner meal out of it. Pesto, tomato, any kind of sauce is yummy on top.
