Pistachio Pancakes With Cherry Syrup
[Vegan]

To Make the Pancakes:

1. Mix flour, coconut sugar, salt, crushed pistachios, baking powder, and baking soda in a mixing bowl. In a food processor, blend banana, spinach, almond extract, vanilla extract, coconut oil, and almond milk.
2. Add wet mixture to dry and combine. Heat griddle and lightly coat with coconut oil. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter into circles on the hot griddle. Top with pistachios, then flip when bubbles start to appear on top.

To Make the Cherry Syrup:

1. Add the cherries to a pan over medium heat, cook for 7-10 minutes. The cherries should soften and juice will collect. Remove from heat and place in a cheese cloth or nut milk mesh bag and drain the liquid from the cherries.
2. Place back onto the pan and add the rest of the ingredients. Add the arrowroot a little at a time, or you can combine it with the lemon juice and add to the mixture. Whisk to combine and cook for and additional 5 minutes, until it thickens.

To Serve:

1. Plate your pancakes, then top with crushed pistachios and the cherry syrup.
