Shiitake Breakfast Hash

This crispy, smoky hash is wonderful plated with Basic Vegan Breakfast Scramble, sliced ripe heirloom tomato, and toast. It also works well for dinner along side Yukon Gold mashed potatoes and any sautéed green vegetable dressed with fresh lemon. An added benefit to this Vegan side dish? It’s packed with vitamins and minerals, and is also a good source of protein.

How To Make Homemade Coconut Pancake Syrup

I love real maple syrup (grade B) but sometimes I just want something different – especially if I am making Aloha Pancakes. Here’s my recipe for Coconut Pancake Syrup…easy-to-make, nutritious, delicious!

In a glass bottle or jar combine:

2 cups coconut palm nectar

(I use Coconut Secret)

2 tsp organic coconut extract

(I use Flavorganics)

Mix well; keep refrigerated. If desired, warm slightly before serving. 

ALOHA PANCAKES

This is a recipe for a Vegan version of Banana Macadamia Nut Pancakes – which are very common here in Hawaii. Serve hot off the griddle with Vegan butter and real coconut syrup - not the artificially flavored substitute.
