Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients
- 1 cup coconut cream
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Optional Ingredients
- 1/4 cup shredded coconut (optional)
Instructions
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until thoroughly combined.
- Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, mix the coconut cream, large egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth and well blended.
- Combine Wet and Dry: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined; avoid overmixing to keep the batter light. If using, fold in the shredded coconut carefully.
- Preheat Skillet: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or oil to prevent sticking.
- Cook Pancakes: Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles appear on the surface and edges look set, about 2 to 3 minutes.
- Flip Pancakes: Flip the pancakes carefully and cook the other side until golden brown, another 1 to 2 minutes.
- Repeat Cooking: Continue cooking the remaining batter in batches, re-greasing the skillet as necessary to ensure pancakes don’t stick.
- Serve Warm: Serve the pancakes warm topped with your favorite syrup, fresh fruit, or additional shredded coconut for extra flavor and texture.
Notes
- Do not overmix the batter to keep pancakes fluffy.
- If coconut cream is too thick, stir it well or slightly warm before using to blend smoothly.
- Use a non-stick skillet or griddle to help pancakes cook evenly without sticking.
- Optional shredded coconut adds texture but can be omitted if preferred.
- For a dairy-free version, substitute melted butter with coconut oil.
