Makes 1 serving

2.5 tbs coconut flour
1 tbs oat bran
1 tbs ground flax seed
1 small apple
3 egg whites
2 tbs unsweetened almond milk
1/8 tsp maple extract
1/8 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp baking soda

Heat a nonstick pan on medium/low heat. In a small bowl beat egg whites by hand, add your almond milk and extracts, and set aside. Chop your apple, place in a small microwave-safe dish and add 1/2 cup of water. Microwave the apple pieces for 1-2 minutes or until apples are soft, and drain the water. In another small bowl, add all of your dry ingredients and mix well. Slowly add your egg white mixture to the dry ingredients and mix until well combined. Then slowly fold in your apple pieces (you may want to save some for topping!). Spoon batter onto your heated pan and cook until golden brown!
