🍽 Ingredients
📖 Instructions
Combine dry ingredients: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the cassava flour, shredded coconut, baking powder, and salt. Make sure there are no lumps!
Mix wet ingredients: In a seperate bowl, whisk together the coconut milk, eggs, honey, and melted coconut oil. I like to make sure everything's well-combined for a smooth batter.
Combine wet and dry: Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, whisking until just combined. Don't overmix! A few lumps are okay; overmixing can make the pancakes tough.
Heat the griddle or pan: Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium heat. You'll know it's ready when a drop of water sizzles and evaporates quickly.
Pour the batter: Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot griddle for each pancake. Give them a little space to spread out.
Cook the first side: Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles start to form on the surface and the edges look set. Keep an eye on the heat – adjust as needed to prevent burning.
Flip and cook the other side: Carefully flip the pancakes with a spatula and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown on both sides and cooked through.
Serve and enjoy: Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate and serve immediately with your favorite toppings, such as fresh fruit, maple syrup, or a dollop of coconut cream. I’m a sucker for blueberries and a little extra shredded coconut!
