Coconut Pancakes

Coconut Pancakes

Yield:

About 8 pancakes

Ingredients:

  • 2 free-range eggs
  • 2 tablespoons coconut oil or butter melted
  • 2 tablespoons coconut milk or whole milk
  • 1 teaspoon coconut sugar (optional)
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons coconut flour, sifted
  • 1/8 teaspoon aluminium-free baking powder
  • Extra coconut oil for cooking pancakes.

Method:

1 Blend together eggs, oil, milk, sugar and salt.

2 Combine coconut flour and baking powder and sift

3 Add the sifted coconut flour and baking powder to the batter and mix thoroughly into the batter.

4 Heat approximately 1 tablespoon of coconut oil in a frying pan.

5 Spoon approximately 1 tablespoon of batter into the pan with hot oil, making pancakes about 8 cm in diameter.  Batter will be thick but will flatten out when cooking.  (Note:  the smaller the pancake, the easier it is to turn over.)

6 Serve with topping of choice, for example,
– fresh fruit,
– low-GI jam or marmalade,
– chocolate sauce (made from mixing coconut oil and raw cacao powder together).
– sprinkle with coconut sugar, or cinnamon, or chopped nuts
