dessicated coconut pancakes

hey everyone! i hope you are all excited about this week and the opportunities it might bring. i never fail to feel enthusiastic about who i might meet, what i might do and things i might learn - every day is a gift, and so very precious to us.

today, i want to share with you a delicious recipe from my new breakfast cookbook, Healthy Breakfast Recipes- these coconut pancakes are made with dessicated coconut, and are very easy, cheap and quick to make and enjoy in the morning.

here's a quick video showing you exactly how to make them -  full recipe and photos below:

coconut pancakes recipe

serves 2

1/2 cup (50g) ground dessicated coconut

1 egg

1 tsp agave nectar

1/2 tsp vanilla extract

1/2 tsp baking soda

1 Tbsp milk

a pinch of salt

1. mix all the ingredients together in a bowl with a fork.

2. leave to rest for 30 minutes, or keep overnight in the fridge.

3. heat a frying pan to a medium temperature, and add in a little coconut oil or butter (if it's nonstick, skip this)

4. once hot, add in spoonfuls of the mixture and wait about 2 minutes before flipping over, cook until golden both sides.

5. serve hot, with a little homemade jam and a dash of coconut cream or applesauce.

cooks notes: if the mixture seems a little too thick, add in a little more milk to bring it too the consistency of whipped mashed potatoes. this depends on the size of your egg and the type of dessicated coconut you use.

what's your favorite pancake recipe? do you use dessicated coconut in your cooking?

currently loving: painting a fleur de lis pattern on this year's Christmas teatowels - it's a very pretty design i think :)
