Pancake con farina di cocco

Ingredienti

• 2.1 oz Coconut Flour ((about 1/2 cup, weigh for better precision!))
• 1/4 teaspoon Baking Soda
• 1 tablespoon Vanilla Extract
• 1 tablespoon Coconut Oil (melted + extra to grease the pan)
• 4 Eggs (at room temperature)
• 1 cup Unsweetened Coconut Milk ((minimum of 18g fat/100g) or heavy cream)
• 1/4 teaspoon Salt
• 1/4 teaspoon Xanthan Gum (helps the batter hold better, highly recommended)

Preparazione

1. 1

   Add all the ingredients to the jug of a blender. The order doesn't matter, so feel free to add the ingredients in any order.

2. 2

   Blend on high speed for 30 seconds. Stop, scrape down the side and bottom of the blender - sometimes some coconut flour sticks to the bottom. Blend again for 15 seconds.

3. 3

   Transfer the pancake batter into a medium bowl. Set aside 10 minutes to let the coconut flour fiber activate. The batter will slightly thicken.

4. 4

   Warm a pancake griddle until hot or as you would do for regular pancakes. Make sure you warm on low heat-medium heat to avoid burning the pancakes.

5. 5

   Lightly grease the griddle using a piece of absorbent paper covered with 1/2 teaspoon of coconut oil or vegetable oil.

6. 6

   Scoop 1 tablespoon of batter. This will make one pancake. Repeat, leaving a one-thumb space between each pancake as they will expand slightly on the hot griddle.

7. 7

   Cook for 2-3 minutes on one side, you know it's cooked when the sides start to set and the center of the pancakes dries out. Be careful, the border must be set before flipping over, or they will be too fragile and break.

8. 8

   Slide a kitchen spatula under the pancake, flip over and cook for an extra 30-45 seconds.

9. 9

   Store on a rack until all the pancake batter has been cooked. This recipe makes about 12 small pancakes.

11. 11

    Store in the fridge in an airtight container and rewarm on the griddle the next day. You can also rewarm pancakes into the toaster.

12. 12

    Freeze into reusable eco silicone bags and defrost 30 minutes before breakfast. Rewarm as suggested above.
