Coconut Banana Pancakes

What you'll need

  • Coconut flour (or any flour)
  • Coconut milk (or any milk)
  • Banana
  • Flaxseed (or oats)
  • Eggs
  • Vanilla extract
  • Cinnamon
  • Baking powder
  • Baking soda
  • (optional) Nutmeg
  • Sugar and salt

What you'll do

Mash one big banana with some flaxseed (or ground oats), around 1 tablespoon, and 1/2 cup of coconut milk (or regular milk).

Now mix in 1 sifted cup of coconut flour with 1 tablespoon of vanilla extract, 2 egg yolks, 1 tablespoon of baking powder and 1/2 tablespoons of baking soda. Optionally add 1 or 2 tablespoons of ground cinnamon and a pinch of nutmeg. Add in a pinch of salt and whisk - if it's too thick, add in more milk (or coconut milk)

You can whisk the white of the eggs with sugar separately to make meringue - this will make the pancakes fluffy but also takes quite some times. I didn't do it this time. If you do, fold them in at the end.

Cook in a nonstick pan, around 2-3 minutes per side. Serve with maple syrup and fruit (I also added some greek yoghurt and vanilla on the side).
