Coconut Flour Pancakes

Preparation Time: 10 minutes
Cooking Time: 15 minutes
Serves: 4 (about 12 pancakes)
Difficulty: Easy
Course: Breakfast
Cuisine: American
kcal: Approximately 180 kcal per serving

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup coconut flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk (or any milk of your choice)
  • 2 tablespoons coconut oil, melted
  • 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup (or sweetener of your choice)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Cooking oil or butter for greasing the pan

Instructions:

  1. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the coconut flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
  2. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, almond milk, melted coconut oil, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  3. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until a smooth batter forms. Let the batter sit for a couple of minutes to allow the coconut flour to absorb the liquids.
  4. Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with cooking oil or butter.
  5. Spoon about 1/4 cup of the pancake batter onto the skillet, spreading it slightly to form a round pancake shape. Repeat with more batter, leaving space between each pancake.
  6. Cook the pancakes for about 2-3 minutes or until small bubbles start to form on the surface.
  7. Carefully flip the pancakes with a spatula and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
  8. Remove the cooked pancakes from the skillet and keep them warm while you cook the remaining batter.
  9. Serve the Coconut Flour Pancakes stacked high and drizzle with maple syrup, or top them with fresh fruit, coconut flakes, or a dollop of Greek yogurt for added indulgence.

Note: These pancakes are best enjoyed fresh, but you can store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Simply reheat them in a toaster or microwave before serving.
