COCONUT PANCAKES WITH RASPBERRIES & COCONUT SYRUP

Start frying

You all know that I love my healthy dose of pancakes in the morning. But to always eat the same type? Nah. I am a big fan of traditions but sometimes it is necessary to be creative and try something else. Banana pancakes? I love those. Buckwheat pancakes with pecans? Great as well. But I feel that it’s time for a little change, a little excitement, a little bit of coconut. How about some lush coconut pancakes, topped with not only fresh raspberries but also a dash of yoghurt, toasted pumpkin seeds and coconut syrup? Are you in for this? Good. Grab your pan.

Servings: 2

Total time: 25 min

For the pancakes

Ingredients

3 eggs

1 tbsp flax seeds

¾ cup coconut milk

2 tbsp coconut syrup

¾ cup coconut flour

½ cup shredded coconut

¼ tsp baking powder

2 tbsp oats

coconut oil for the pan

serve with

toasted coconut flakes

toasted pumpkin seeds

a sprinkle of coconut syrup

2 tbsp yoghurt of choice

fresh raspberries

Instructions

1. In a food processor, combine the flax seeds, eggs, coconut milk and coconut syrup. Blend on high until all ingredients are well combined. Add in the coconut flour, shredded coconut, baking powder and oats. Blend again until you get a smooth batter (it won’t be very runny but instead a little bit firmer). 

2. In a frying pan, heat some coconut oil and fry 4-5 small pancakes at a time. Flip them carefully so as not to destroy their shape. 

3. Serve on a plate, topped with some yoghurt, fresh raspberries, toasted coconut flakes, toasted pumpkin seeds and a drizzle of coconut syrup. 

4. Enjoy this beautiful morning on which you decided to treat yourself to a yummy batch of pancakes!
