Ingredients

  • 1-1/4 C (160 g) all purpose flour
  • 2 Tbs sugar
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 C shredded, sweetened coconut
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 1/2 C buttermilk
  • 3/4 C coconut milk
  • 1 Tbs melted butter
  • additional butter or oil for cooking surface

Directions

  1. Start heating your cooking surface on low.
  2. Combine dry ingredients, stir to combine.
  3. Combine wet ingredients. Add to dry ingredients and stir to combine. Do not overmix – just make sure there are no dry bits.
  4. Spray griddle, drop pancake batter in mounds using two large spoons. Cook until bubbles pop in the middle and edges look dry. Flip and cook 1 minute more.
  5. Serve with pineapple syrup.

Notes

  • makes about 8-10 3” pancakes. I would double this next time.
  • First time I made these I forgot the egg and nobody noticed, including me.
  • try topping with chopped macadamia nuts, sliced bananas, more coconut, sliced kiwifruit, really any sliced tropical fruit. Or strawberries.
  • saw a suggestion for coconut syrup, which could use up the rest of the can of the coconut cream: mix coconut milk with some sugar, a pinch of salt, a little light corn syrup (for texture)
