Servings: 12
Preparation Time: 15 minutes

  • 4 eggs, room temperature
  • 1 cup whole milk or ¼ cup whole milk and ¾ cup heavy whipping cream
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon warm honey
  • ½ cup coconut flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • coconut oil for cooking

Beat eggs on high speed until they are frothy (about 3-4 minutes). Add in milk, vanilla and honey.

In a separate bowel whisk together the coconut flour, baking soda and salt.

Add the dry mixture to the wet a little at a time and mix until well incorporated.
Get your skillet just hot enough to sizzle the coconut oil and place about a tablespoon in the pan. Using a tablespoon, make each pancake using about 2 tablespoons of batter.

When you flip the pancake, add another layer of coconut oil underneath, this makes for a crispier pancake.

Serve hot and enjoy!

Servings: 10
Preparation Time: 45 minutes

  • 1 cup sushi rice, (also known as sticky rice)
  • 2 cups water
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 – 1/2 cup coconut flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/3 – 1/2 cup sugar for desired sweetness
  • 1 3/4 cups coconut milk*
  • sugar, optional topping
  • shredded coconut, optional topping

Option: You may soak the rinsed rice overnight to remove the phytic acid before cooking.Add rice to boiling, salted water, stirring constantly for 15 minutes. Allow to cool.

In a blender combine 1/4 cup coconut flour with the baking powder and sugar. Add cooked rice and coconut milk, processing until it becomes a thick paste. If more thickening is necessary, add a little more flour.

On a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper, create circles with the mixture, 3″- 4″ across and 1/2″ thick. Bake at 350 °F for 20 minutes – the bottoms should be a light, toasty brown. Remove from oven and sprinkle with sugar and shredded coconut. Return to oven for 5 minutes or pop under the broiler to melt the sugar and toast the coconut, optional.

Note: In the Philippines these are baked on banana leaves, cut into rounds. You may cut the parchment in circles around each little cake for easy storage.

Servings: 6-8
Preparation Time: 10 minutes

Preheat oven to 350 ºF

Using coconut oil or butter, grease the bottom and sides of an 8 or 9 inch pie dish. Set aside.

Using a blender, whip the coconut milk, eggs, maple syrup, coconut flour, brown rice flour, vanilla extract, and sea salt till smooth and frothy. (Can also be whisked vigorously by hand.)

Pour roughly half an inch of batter into the greased dish and bake it in the oven until it is lightly set – just a few minutes. Take the baking dish out of the oven and add the blueberries in an even layer. Pour on the remaining batter.

Return the dish to the oven and bake for about 50 to 55 minutes, until slightly golden around the edges, and set in the center.

Serve at room temperature, with a dollop of coconut milk whipped cream and a sprinkling of cinnamon, if desired.

Servings: 20
Preparation Time: 1 1/2 hours

In a medium-size heavy bottom sauce pan melt ghee/or coconut oil on low heat. Add shredded coconut and toast it for 30 seconds. Add coconut flour and mix well with the shredded coconut. Add 2 cups of milk. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring continuously to avoid burning. When the milk is fully absorbed by the coconut, the mixture will start to lump together and look dry (approximately 20 minutes). Lower the heat and add the cardamom powder, mango pulp and sugar. On low heat stir well till combined and then turn off heat when everything comes together to form a lump.

Let the mixture cool.

Grease a 7×5 inch pan with coconut oil or ghee. Pat the mixture evenly into the pan. Cut into 20 squares and garnish each with a raisin then refrigerate for an hour.
