  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tbsp sugar (or honey for a healthier option)
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 cup coconut cream
  • 1 cup milk (dairy or plant-based alternative)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tbsp melted butter or coconut oil
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Additional shredded coconut and fresh fruit for topping (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt to make the dry mixture.
  2. In another bowl, combine coconut cream, milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth and creamy.
  3. Gradually pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix; lumps are okay.
  4. Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat, lightly greased with butter or oil. Pour about ¼ cup of batter for each pancake.
  5. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
  6. Serve warm with toppings such as fresh fruits, shredded coconut, or a drizzle of honey or syrup. Add whipped cream or extra coconut syrup for indulgence.

Notes

  • For gluten-free pancakes, substitute all-purpose flour with a 1:1 gluten-free flour blend.
  • Coconut milk can be used instead of coconut cream by adding a tablespoon of melted coconut oil for richness.
  • Reheat leftovers in a toaster or oven for a quick breakfast revival, or freeze for longer storage.
