Coconut Flour Pancakes

By

I’m loving these pancakes for 4 main reasons: 1) they’re nice & fluffy, 2) they taste great, 3) they’re gluten free, & 4) you get a pretty decent serving size for the calories.

Preparation

Step 1

Coconut Flour Pancakes - Step 1

Pre-heat a griddle coated with non-stick spray to medium heat.
In a medium bowl, combine egg whites, extract & sweetener, then whisk together.
Add in the coconut flour & baking powder. Mix well. Batter will be thick.

Step 2

Coconut Flour Pancakes - Step 2

Spoon onto the griddle & make about 3-4″ sized pancakes. Batter will need to be spread a bit & won’t bubble when it’s ready to flip, so keep an eye on it. I wait about a minute & look for hints of steam/smoke when it seems about ready.
Cook both sides, then plate as you go along, making a cute little stack.

Step 3

Topping time! Add whatever toppings your heart desires & have fun with it, but in a healthy way. Try adding some fresh fruit and/or nuts…. I love adding strawberries and/or banana & of course – PB!!
Enjoy!

*Note: These pancakes can be a bit fragile, so the larger you make them, the more easily they may break apart… they require a bit of a delicate hand & work better in smaller sizes.
