Coconut flour pancakes

Gluten-free and high in fibre. Coconut flour drinks up far more liquid than wheat, so the ratios here are not a typo.

Coconut flour pancakes

What you need

  • 60g Sana Amnis coconut flour
  • 4 eggs
  • 180ml milk of your choice
  • 1 tbsp Sana Amnis cold-pressed coconut oil, melted, plus more for the pan
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • A pinch of salt, honey to serve

Method

  1. 1

    Whisk the eggs, milk and melted coconut oil together until completely smooth.

  2. 2

    Add the coconut flour, baking powder and salt. Whisk hard — coconut flour clumps if you are gentle with it.

  3. 3

    Leave the batter to stand for 5 minutes. It will thicken noticeably as the flour absorbs the liquid; this is what should happen.

  4. 4

    Heat a little coconut oil in a non-stick pan over medium-low. Spoon in small rounds — these are more fragile than wheat pancakes, so keep them modest.

  5. 5

    Cook for 2–3 minutes until the edges set and bubbles hold, then turn carefully and give them another 1–2 minutes.
