Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup Shredded coconut (unsweetened)
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 1 large Egg
- 0.75 cup Coconut milk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil or melted butter
- 1 tablespoon Butter or oil (for greasing the pan)
- Maple syrup or fresh fruit (optional, for serving)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, shredded coconut, baking powder, granulated sugar, and salt.
In a separate bowl, whisk the egg until pale yellow, then stir in coconut milk, vanilla extract, and vegetable oil or melted butter.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined. Do not overmix; a few small lumps are fine.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil.
Scoop about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Use the back of a spoon to spread the batter slightly if needed.
Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles appear on the surface of the pancake and the edges look set. Flip gently and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown on the other side.
Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the pan as necessary between batches.
Serve the pancakes warm, topped with maple syrup, fresh fruit, or additional shredded coconut, as desired.
