Coconut Flour Pancakes

These gluten-free, low-carb coconut flour pancakes have a light texture and subtle nutty flavor. They’re delicious with a pat of butter and maple syrup, but if you prefer to cut down on carbs, you can replace the maple syrup with a handful of berries.

Ingredients :

3/4 cup coconut flour

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon of salt

4 large eggs

1 cup of semi-skimmed milk

1/4 cup canola oil, plus a little more for the pan

2 tablespoons of water

Pure maple syrup (optional)

Preparation : Whisk coconut flour, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl. In another medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, semi-skimmed milk, oil and water. Add the wet mixture to the dry mixture and stir until almost smooth. Lightly oil a non-stick pan and heat over medium-high heat. Using just 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake, pour the batter onto the hot pan using a spoon or small offset spatula. Flatten slightly and spread each pancake to about 1/4 inch thickness. Cook until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side. Brush the pan with a little more oil if necessary between each pancake. If you like, serve them with maple syrup.
