Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients:
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 cup canned coconut cream (well-stirred)
- 1/2 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- 1 tablespoon melted butter or coconut oil (plus more for the skillet)
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Optional Toppings:
- toasted coconut flakes
- whipped cream
- maple syrup
- fresh berries
Instructions
- Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk the egg, coconut cream, milk, melted butter or coconut oil, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Combine: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined; do not overmix. Let the batter rest for 5–10 minutes while heating a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat.
- Cook: Lightly grease the skillet with butter or coconut oil. Pour 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto the skillet. Cook for 2–3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface and edges look set. Flip and cook another 1–2 minutes until golden brown and cooked through. Repeat with remaining batter.
- Serve: Serve warm with toasted coconut, whipped cream, maple syrup, or fresh berries.
Notes
- Use full-fat coconut cream for the richest flavor and fluffiest texture.
- For a tropical twist, add crushed pineapple or lime zest to the batter.
- Pancakes can be frozen and reheated in a toaster or microwave.
