I have an affinity for trying new pancake recipes.
I come up with a recipe that I love, and declare it the best ever. You’ll never need another pancake recipe I tell you. But without fail, I get a hankering for pancakes, and I start experimenting.
This recipe was born out of my new found love for coconut flour. It has the best texture – kind of gritty, but in a wonderful coconutty, smooth way. I know that doesn’t make sense. Just try it for me, okay?
Ingredients
- 1 C brown rice flour
- 1/2 C coconut flour
- 3 T sugar
- 1 T baking powder
- 1/4 t salt
- 1/8 t freshly ground nutmeg
- 2 T. ground flax seed
- 6 T water
- 1 1/2 C unsweetened soy milk
- 1/2 t vanilla
- 3 T coconut oil
Directions
First, add the ground flax to the 6 T water and let set until they turn into a gel (this will be your egg)
Combine flours, sugar, baking powder, salt and nutmeg – set aside
In a separate bowl, combine milk, vanilla, oil, and the flax egg
Add the wet to the dry and stir until just combined. Pour the batter onto a hot griddle/pan by ¼ cup, let cook for 1-2 minutes and flip. These are very fluffy, very thick pancakes. They won’t look cooked through – but they will be. And they will knock your socks off.
Baby A was eyeing them all morning. To keep take her mind off of the coconut pancake heaven on my plate, I told her to try and stick her whole fist in her mouth.
But she really wanted a pancake. Just a few more months, my love…a few more months!
I’m all about not making sense. So, it made perfect sense to me.
Those. Look. So. Good.
Just looking at that picture I can tell what you mean about the texture – this is definitely something I could get on board with. These look amazing – and I love that first picture of Baby A!
Those look so fluffy and fabulous! I love coconut so I’m sure I’d be all over those!
Awl! Those pancakes look great! No wonder she wanted them so badly.
Yum! I love trying new pancake recipes – tried a new one this morning. One I pulled right out of my head and poured into a bowl. It turned out okay. I’ll try this recipe next.
Until then, maybe I should stick my fist in my mouth to keep me satisfied… She’s adorable!!
Fluffy and thick pancakes are the best. I might have to find myself some coconut flour, because these look great.
That second picture of A looks like a totally different baby. She’s changing so much!
I will be making these IMMEDIATELY upon my arrival back home. Can’t wait!
I actually thought of you while making these this morning! For some reason, I associate you and your blog with delicious pancakes.
GAH! I love her!!
Oh those cheeks! How do you not spend all day squeezing them!!
I do. All stinking day.
Those look so yummy! I’ve never baked with cocounut flour before, but I’m excited to start experimenting!
I’m such a creature of habit when it comes to pancakes! My Dad used to make us pancakes every Sunday. While I’ve had lots of good pancakes in my life, NOTHING can beat my dad’s! To this day, every single pancake I eat gets compared.
Do you think these would work for waffles? Husband’s a big fan o’ waffles.
Yummy…we could not find coconut sugar at the store this week
We have been on a cooking, stock up the freezer frenzy over here.
Good for you! That will make it easier when life starts picking up with school! Also, got my coconut flour at whole foods – not tooo expensive.
I will have to try these, they look delicious! I love coconut, mmmmmmm.
I love you. I have been trying to perfect the coconut flour pancake for a long long time!
Yay! I hope it works for you!!
Definitely have to try these!
sixty three pictures of cupcakes, hmm.. problem? naaaah!!
snap away girlfriend,i’d be mighty proud of those suckers too, they look beautilicious!
I just bought coconut flour yesterday! I’m so eager to try it, but I want to make cupcakes with it. Can’t wait to experiment. Any tips?
I wouldn’t use it solely on it’s own…I’ve found it works best when mixed with another kind of flour…whole wheat, spelt, brown rice, etc. Good luck! Let me know if you come up with any good recipes – I love the stuff!

Hi Katie, I just found you through Edible Perspective. I agree with you on pancake recipes…you can never have enough! These look yummy! I love that they are gluten-free, because we are suspecting my daughter is sensitive to gluten. Your baby is so cute! I have a 5-month-old, so I feel like I can relate to you more. Anyway, glad I found you! I’m excited to read and try some of your recipes!
