COCONUT PANCAKES

We made these pancakes some days ago and our kids were totally in love. They are so similar to our Cameroon style pancakes with a coconuty twist. These ones are made just the way American pancakes are made. We did what we do to a lot of recipes… we added coconut to the mix. Coconut just makes every batter better.

Here is how we make them:

Prep: 5 mins
Cook: 20 mins

Ingredients

Flour – 2 cups
Coconut Milk – 2 cups
Butter – 2 tablespoons- it should be melted
Sugar – 3 tablespoons
Baking powder – 2 teaspoons
Shredded coconut or coconut powder – 1 cup
Eggs – 2
Salt – a pinch
Coconut oil to cook them in – 2 tablespoons

Directions

Put all dry ingredients in a bowl and mix.

Beat eggs and add in. Add in coconut milk too.

Mix together until mixture is smooth – no problem if it has a few lumps. Now put in your shredded coconut or coconut powder.

Warm a skillet and drop in some coconut oil and let put in one large scoop of batter. We had to use two pans for this so we could finish quickly.

When bubbles start forming at the top, flip to the other side. If the bubbles don’t form, simply lift a side of the pancake with a spoon to make sure it is brown. If it is brown, flip the side and let the other side cook.

Repeat process until batter we finished. Some of the pancakes “disappeared” while we made them.

Thanks for reading and for making satisfying pancakes.
