Paleo Buttermilk Pancakes

As you may know, I just love pancakes…. of almost any kind. But as I am trying to avoid gluten, I am always on the look out for alternatives. The reviews I got from my first pancake recipe that I wrote about was that it had too many flour ingredients – from brown rice flour, tapioca flour, potato starch, etc. So, this recipe just calls for coconut flour and tapioca flour.

I have tried using almond flour and though I love the taste, I just kept burning them a wee bit. I’ve tried many times and I just did not get it right. So, I have completely given up on them and am now focusing on coconut flour instead. The taste is just amazing and you should try too as it’s also nut-free, grain-free and dairy-free! 😊

Recipe from – https://www.paleorunningmomma.com/paleo-buttermilk-pancakes-nut-free-dairy-free/

Ingredients

Eggs – 3
Full fat coconut milk – 2/3 cup, room temperature
Apple cider vinegar – 1/2 tbsp or lemon juice
Coconut oil – 2 tbsp or melted ghee or butter, room temperature
Honey – 2 tbsp or pure maple syrup
Vanilla extract – 1 tsp
Coconut flour – 50 gm
Tapioca flour – 75 gm
Baking powder – 1 tsp
Baking soda – 1/2 tsp
Salt – 1/4 tsp
Oil or ghee for frying

Method

Mix the apple cider vinegar into the coconut milk and allow to sit for at least 5 mins. This will give you the “buttermilk”.
In a mixing bowl, combine the coconut flour, tapioca flour, baking powder and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, coconut milk/vinegar mixture, melted ghee or coconut oil, honey and vanilla extract until well combined.
Slowly stir the dry ingredients into wet until no flour spots show. Make sure it’s mixed well. Batter will be thick due to the coconut flour.
Gently spread pancakes into a circular shape beginning in the center – do not spread out too much since they will also spread on their own.
Cook over medium/low heat until bubbles form. Flip and continue to cook until golden brown.
Serve warm with maple syrup. Enjoy!
