  • Total Time: 25 minutes
  • Yield: 8 pancakes

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup coconut milk
  • ½ cup coconut cream
  • 2 large eggs
  • ¼ cup melted unsalted butter or coconut oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Shredded coconut (optional, for garnish)
  • Fresh berries and additional coconut cream for topping

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined. Set aside.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the coconut milk, coconut cream, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  3. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Gently fold until just combined — do not overmix, as this can affect the fluffiness of your pancakes.
  4. Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or coconut oil. Pour about ¼ cup of batter for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.
  5. Flip and cook for another 2 minutes or until golden brown and fluffy. Repeat with remaining batter.

Notes

  • For dairy-free options, substitute coconut milk and coconut cream with almond milk or other plant-based milks.
  • Ensure not to overmix the batter to keep the pancakes fluffy.
  • Garnish with shredded coconut and fresh berries for extra flavor and visual appeal.
  • To reheat, microwave for 20-30 seconds or warm in a toaster oven for added crispiness.
