How to Make Coconut Flour Pancakes
In a large bowl, whisk together all the wet ingredients and set aside. In a smaller bowl, whisk all the dry ingredients. Add the dry ingredients to the wet and whisk together until no lumps remain.
Then let the bowl sit for 5 minutes.
Then, add coconut oil to a large skillet heated over medium heat and fry the pancakes. Flip 'em after about 3 minutes on each side or once the dough is bubbly.
Serve these coconut flour pancakes warm loaded with your favorite toppings. Maple syrup, fresh fruit or my coconut whipped cream all taste fantastic.
Make your mornings a little more special — or have the best "breakfast at dinner" ever — with these coconut flour pancakes.
