I thought I’d share with you a recipe of coconut pancakes that I’ve made a few times recently. I did try to take a picture, but didn’t realise until long after I finished dinner that the pictures were super blurry! So I’m sorry about that, you’ll just have to make them yourselves and take a look ;)
You need;
1 deciliter (or ½ cup) of coconut flakes (no, you can not use coconut flour instead)
1 deciliter (or ½ cup) of heavy/whipping cream
2 eggs
a pinch of salt
a little bit of baking soda
Put the coconut flakes in some sort of mixer/grinder and grind them into smaller pieces. It doesn’t turn to flour really but at least the pieces should be smaller. Pour all the ingredients into a bowl and mix with a fork until it’s sort of a smooth mix (you’ll still be able to see the coconut bits and that’s fine). Let sit for about 10 minutes.
Add butter to your frying pan and fry them like normal pancakes. Although since these don’t contain any flour, they don’t stick together the same way normal pancakes do. I chose to make mine smaller, that way you can turn them around without them breaking into pieces.
If you’re not on the low-carb diet, you could eat this with whatever toppings you like. I put raspberries and blueberries in a cup, microwaved until warm (not cooking), and stirred them. This mix + cinnamon made for a perfect low-carb topping!
Perfect lazy brunch (although I had them for dinner..) that contains almost no carbs at all. Coconut flakes usually contain about 3,5% carbs, whipping cream is around 3%. I think these pancakes altogether contain a maximum of 4 grams of carbs. I dare you to eat all of them (I actually make half the recipe because I can’t eat more than that).
Oh happy day! What’s your favourite breakfast?
