Healthy-licious Coconut Pancake

This is a recipe that I have been using to make gluten-free, healthy coconut pancake. I used coconut flour in the recipe instead of the normal wheat flour. What is coconut flour? Coconut flour is made from dried and ground coconut meat. It is considered as a healthier alternative to normal wheat flour as it is high in fiber, protein, and healthy fats. It has a low Glycemic Index which makes it ideal for diabetics and those who are on a diet.

INGREDIENTS

  • 1/2 cup coconut flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 cup your favorite milk (I love Nutty Bruce Activated Coconut and Almond Milk)
  • 2 tablespoons of coconut oil
  • 6 eggs
  • 2 teaspoon honey (Can be substituted with rice malt syrup for a healthier option)
  • Pinch of salt
  • Canola cooking oil spray
  • 2 to 3 passion fruits
  • A punnet of blueberries
  • Cacao Nibs
  • Other fruits of your choice

METHOD

  1. Mix coconut oil, honey, and the eggs together thoroughly.
  2. Add your choice of milk to the mixture.
  3. Add the coconut flour, baking soda, and salt.
  4. Heat a frying pan on the stove. Spray the cooking oil when the pan is warm enough.
  5. Spread the pancake mixture in round shape.
  6. Fry on low heat until the pancake mixture is set then flip over to cook the other side.
  7. Serve hot with passion fruit, blueberries, your favorite fruits, honey and sprinkle with cacao nibs!
