Gluten Free Coconut Flour Pancakes

Would coconut milk work as a replacement for the cow’s milk?

every time I find a recipe that looks good it has something in it I can’t have.  I cannot have dairy so this one is out too.  Anything else to substitute for the milk?

I’ve made these without the apple cider vinegar, and added flax seed and pumpkin.  SOOO GOOD!  I have also used a half coconut-half quinoa recipe and works just as well.

I just made these and they were good. I cut the recipe in half and it was more than enough for 2 people. I used solid sugar instead of honey (I hate to measure honey), and raw cow’s milk. I mixed it up in my Tupperware measuring bowl with a handle and the batter was pourable, like regular pancakes. I used a ceramic nonstick skillet that was oiled with expeller pressed coconut oil. Flipping the first few was a little tricky but I had no disasters. Mine were yellow because of my eggs. I would make these again. Thanks for sharing this recipe, Melissa.

Can these be frozen?

When making the pancakes or any cake, etc with coconut flour, you’re not eating all those eggs at once. Consider a serving similar to 1-2 eggs. You have to use a lot of eggs with coconut flour, it is so dense you’d end up choking on it if you didn’t bc it would be so dry. And adding a liquid like coconut milk cannot be used solely. You can use a combo, but you will always need a lot of eggs, yolk and all. I can tell you as living proof, I have been eating this way for about 5 years and I get my blood work checked twice a year if that helps any, my cholesterol and triglycerides were normal, hdl and ldl were all normal. HTH any

Will this recipe work with 4 whole eggs and 4 egg whites? Is it just the moisture from the egg, or do you need that much fat from the yolk?

Because coconut flour is so dense and you use (compared to gluten flours) much less of it, you need the eggs to provide the body and make it look like a normal gluten product.  That’s what I keep reading – and in this case they make the pancakes have a nice high protein content as well, so they are doubly good for you.

Just made them and the kids gobbled them up. My daughter is allergic to a multitude of foods but this recipe was good. A lot of my gluten-free bread recipes call for a half teaspoon of vinegar and you don’t taste it.

I agree with Beth, looks great, but anytime I add Apple Cider Vinegar to anything, that’s all I taste.  Couldn’t you just skip it?

I think I  might even add some coconut flakes to this as well, Going to try it tomorrow morning.

This looks good, but does the taste of apple cider vinegar come through?  Otherwise, this looks really delicious.
