Coconut Flour Pancakes
Prep time: 10 minutes
Cook time: 20 minutes
Serves: 2
For avoid lumps, sift the coconut flour before adding to the batter. If you don’t have a sifter, pour flour into a fine-mesh sieve and gently shake over the bowl.
Ingredients:
1 large egg
2 egg whites
1½ T. pure maple syrup
3 T. very mild olive oil
1 t. pure vanilla extract
½ c. coconut milk
1/3 c. coconut flour, sifted
½ t. baking powder
Pinch salt
3 T. coconut oil, divided
1 large banana, sliced
2 c. fresh raspberries
Real maple syrup, for serving
Directions:
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk the egg, egg whites, maple syrup, olive oil, and vanilla extract until smooth. Pour in the coconut milk and whisk to combine.
- Add the sifted coconut flour, baking powder, and a small pinch of salt. Gently fold in the dry ingredients without overworking the batter.
- Melt about a teaspoon of coconut oil in a large, hot non-stick skillet or griddle and pour 2-3 tablespoons of batter per pancake. Cook until the pancakes are set and the edges turn a deeper golden color, around 1-2 minutes.
- Flip and cook the remaining side another 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from heat and repeat this process with the remaining batter.
- To serve, stack several pancakes and top with sliced banana, raspberries, and drizzle with real maple syrup, if desired. Enjoy!
