Description
These fluffy coconut pancakes are a delightful breakfast option that combines the creaminess of coconut with classic pancake goodness.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup coconut cream
- ½ cup milk (or any non-dairy milk)
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons melted butter or coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Butter or oil for cooking
Instructions
- Mix the dry ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. This gives the pancakes structure while keeping them fluffy. - Blend the wet ingredients
In another bowl, combine the coconut cream, milk, eggs, melted butter (or coconut oil), and vanilla extract. Stir until everything is smooth and creamy. The coconut cream will be thick, so take your time mixing to ensure it’s fully incorporated. - Combine wet and dry mixtures
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients and gently fold everything together. Don’t overmix—just stir until you no longer see streaks of flour. A few small lumps are perfectly fine. - Heat the skillet
Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or oil. You’ll know it’s ready when a drop of water sizzles on the surface. - Cook the pancakes
Scoop ¼ cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Let it cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges start to look set, about 2–3 minutes. Flip and cook the other side for another 1–2 minutes, or until golden brown. - Serve warm
Stack the pancakes high and serve with a pat of butter, a drizzle of maple syrup, a sprinkle of shredded coconut, or even fresh tropical fruit like mango or pineapple.
Notes
- For a vegan option, use non-dairy milk and coconut oil.
- Optional Add-ins: Feel free to add chocolate chips or nuts for extra flavor.
