Ingredients
- 1 cup coconut flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons melted coconut oil (plus extra for cooking)
- Powdered sugar for dusting (optional)
How to Make Sweet Coconut Pancakes
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the coconut flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk until well blended.
- In a separate bowl, beat the eggs. Then add the milk, vanilla extract, and melted coconut oil. Mix until combined.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. The batter will be thick.
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add a small amount of coconut oil to coat the surface.
- Using a ¼ cup measuring cup, pour the batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook for 3-4 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set.
- Flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, until golden brown and cooked through.
- Transfer to a plate and keep warm while you repeat with the remaining batter.
- Dust with powdered sugar before serving, if desired.
Tips for the Best Results
- Ensure your coconut oil is melted but not hot when mixing into the batter to prevent cooking the eggs.
- If the batter seems too thick, add a little more milk to reach your desired consistency.
- Preheat your skillet to the right temperature; too hot can burn the pancakes, while too low can make them soggy.
Easy Variations
- Add ½ cup of shredded coconut to the batter for extra texture and flavor.
- Mix in ½ cup of chocolate chips or blueberries for a sweet twist.
- Serve with a dollop of coconut whipped cream and fresh pineapple for a tropical vibe.
What to Serve With It
- Fresh fruit like sliced bananas, strawberries, or mango.
- A drizzle of warm maple syrup or honey.
- Greek yogurt for a creamy contrast.
- Bacon or sausage for a savory complement.
