If you’re craving a tropical twist on traditional pancakes, these gluten-free, lower-carb cakes are a great option. They’re tender and tasty, and subbing naturally sweet mango topping for the syrup makes them seem decadent — with fewer grams of added sugar.
Active time: 25 minutes | Total time: 25 minutes
Place the mango and lime juice in a blender and puree until smooth, scraping sides and repeating as needed. Pour into a small bowl and set aside.
In a large bowl, combine the coconut flour and baking powder, whisk to combine. In a medium bowl, combine the almond milk, coconut oil, maple syrup, egg whites and vanilla and whisk vigorously for 1 minute to really incorporate the egg whites.
Preheat a griddle or large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Stir the egg white mixture into the coconut flour mixture. It will thicken as you stir. When well-mixed, it should be pourable but thick. If it is too thick, stir in another tablespoon of almond milk.
Coat the hot pan with coconut-oil spray. Scoop heaping 1/4-cup portions and drop on the oiled pan, spreading into 4-inch rounds. Cook for about 2–3 minutes on the first side, until the edges look cooked and the top is bubbly. Carefully turn the cakes and cook for another 2 minutes, until puffed in the center and cooked through. Top with mango puree and serve immediately.

Hong Kong has stepped up precautions over the Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and Uganda, as the World Health Organization (WHO) declared the epidemic “a public health emergency of international concern.”
The WHO said on Sunday that there had been 246 suspected cases and 80 suspected deaths in the DRC as of Saturday, in addition to a handful of apparent cases in Uganda.
The outbreak was caused by the Bundibugyo virus disease, and there is currently no vaccine.
There are no confirmed cases in Hong Kong, but the Centre for Health Protection (CHP) has enacted a series of precautionary measures, according to a government press release on Sunday.
Although there are no direct flights from the affected areas, “the CHP will strengthen health screening for passengers arriving on flights from Africa at the airport… Suspected cases will be immediately referred to public hospitals for isolation and treatment.”
It will also bolster public awareness and health education efforts, and provide airlines, doctors and hospitals with updated information.
The CHP advises against visiting affected regions.
Ebola is transmitted to humans through close contact with the blood, secretions, organs, or other bodily fluids of infected animals.
The virus is highly lethal and causes haemorrhagic fever, systemic inflammation, and multi-organ failure. The case fatality rates from past outbreaks range from 25 to 90 per cent, according to the WHO – the average is 50 per cent.
Meanwhile, Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) is preparing a large-scale response to the outbreak, the humanitarian charity said in a press release on Sunday.
“The number of cases and deaths we are seeing in such a short timeframe, combined with the spread across several health zones and now across the border, is extremely concerning,” said MSF Emergency Programme Manager Trish Newport. “In Ituri, many people already struggle to access healthcare and live with ongoing insecurity, making rapid action critical to prevent the outbreak from escalating further.”
The NGO is mobilising more teams comprising medical, logistical, and support staff experienced in responding to viral haemorrhagic fever outbreaks, it said.

Here’s another Star Wars vehicle sculpture I created for LEGO in 2015. It's titled Falcon Over Jakku and it swings side to side when you twist the gear at the back. I had a prototype with a TIE, too; the two modules could be connected and they'd crisscross when the gear was turned.
