  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tbsp coconut sugar or maple syrup
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 cup coconut milk (full-fat for richness)
  • 1/2 cup coconut cream
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup shredded coconut (sweetened or unsweetened)
  • Butter or coconut oil for cooking

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, coconut sugar, baking powder, and salt until combined.
  2. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, then stir in the coconut milk, coconut cream, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  3. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and gently fold until just combined. Mix in shredded coconut.
  4. Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or coconut oil.
  5. Pour 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake and cook until bubbles form on the surface and edges look set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown.

Notes

  • Use full-fat coconut milk and coconut cream for the richest flavor and texture.
  • You can substitute shredded unsweetened coconut for a less sweet option.
  • For extra flavor, add toasted coconut on top before serving.
