Ingredients
Scale
Wet Ingredients
- 1 cup coconut cream
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup milk or dairy-free almond milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil or butter (for cooking)
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour (or gluten-free flour blend)
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Prepare the Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the coconut cream, eggs, milk, and vanilla extract until well combined and smooth.
- Combine the Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt to ensure your pancakes will be light and fluffy.
- Mix Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring gently just until combined to avoid overmixing, which can make pancakes tough.
- Heat the Pan and Cook: Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with coconut oil or butter. Pour batter onto the pan, forming your desired pancake size.
- Flip and Finish Cooking: Once bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, carefully flip the pancakes and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden and cooked through.
Notes
- Ensure eggs and milk are at room temperature for better batter consistency.
- Stir the batter until just combined to keep pancakes tender and fluffy.
- Preheat pan over medium heat to prevent burning and allow even cooking.
- Let batter rest for 5 minutes before cooking to activate baking powder fully.
- Use fresh, high-quality coconut cream for best flavor and texture.
