Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 tablespoons coconut oil, melted
  • 1/2 cup shredded coconut
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt using a whisk for an even mix.
  • In another bowl, whisk together the milk, melted coconut oil, egg, and vanilla extract until thoroughly blended.
  • Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  • Fold in the shredded coconut until evenly distributed in the batter.

Cooking

  • Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat (around 375°F) and lightly grease it with a bit more coconut oil.
  • Pour 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake onto the skillet. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes.
  • Carefully flip and cook until the other side is golden brown—another 2-3 minutes.

Serving

  • Serve warm with additional shredded coconut on top and your favorite syrup.

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. For longer storage, freeze pancakes between sheets of parchment paper for up to 2 months.
