Ingredients
  

For the Batter
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour can substitute with whole wheat or gluten-free flour
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar reduce for less sweet pancakes
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder essential for fluffiness
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt reduce if watching sodium intake
  • 1 cup coconut milk or almond/soy milk as non-dairy alternatives
  • 1/2 cup coconut cream can substitute with heavy cream or Greek yogurt
  • 1 large egg or flax egg for vegan version
  • 2 tablespoons melted coconut oil or unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract can substitute with almond extract
  • 1/4 cup coconut flakes optional for garnishing

Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • whisk
  • Non-stick skillet
  • Spatula

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until evenly mixed.
  2. In a separate bowl, combine the coconut milk, coconut cream, large egg, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth and creamy.
  3. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and gently stir with a spatula until just combined. It's okay if there are a few lumps.
  4. Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with coconut oil or unsalted butter.
  5. Pour about 1/4 cup of pancake batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2 to 3 minutes.
  6. Gently flip the pancakes and cook for another 2 minutes until golden-brown.
  7. Continue pouring and cooking the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed between batches.
  8. Serve your warm Coconut Cream Pancakes immediately, topped with coconut flakes, maple syrup, or fresh fruit.
