Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup (200g) all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons (30g) granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons (10g) baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon (2.5g) salt
- 1 cup (240ml) coconut cream
- 1/2 cup (120ml) milk
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons (30ml) vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon (5ml) vanilla extract
- Cooking spray or butter for greasing
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- In another bowl, mix coconut cream, milk, egg, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and stir until just combined; do not overmix.
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with cooking spray or butter.
- Pour 1/4 cup batter per pancake onto the skillet and cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes.
- Flip and cook until golden brown on the other side, about 1-2 minutes.
- Repeat with remaining batter, greasing skillet as needed.
- Serve warm with toppings like maple syrup, fresh berries, or shredded coconut if desired.
Notes
- For Extra Fluffiness: Let the batter rest for 5-10 minutes before cooking. This allows the gluten to relax and results in a lighter texture.
- Don’t Overmix: A few lumps in the batter are fine; overmixing can lead to tough pancakes.
- Optimal Heat: Ensure your skillet is at medium heat. Too low, and pancakes dry out; too high, and they burn.
