An easy recipe for fluffy gluten free low carb coconut flour pancakes. Such a tasty breakfast treat! Enjoy them with your favorite syrup or eat them plain.
Pancakes are such a great weekend breakfast treat. And, it’s great that you don’t have to give them up on a low carb diet. These pancakes use coconut flour, but you can also try my popular almond flour pancakes recipe.
I decided to try a low carb pancakes recipe using coconut flour. There are a lot of people with nut allergies who can’t have almonds. Flour made from defatted coconut is a terrific option for those who need a nut-free recipe.
These gluten free low carb coconut flour pancakes turned out lighter than the almond flour ones. And, they don’t have the nutty flavor of the almonds. I didn’t find them to have a strong coconut flavor either, which was great.
I may try adding a little xanthan gum next time as it is supposed to make up for the gluten in wheat free and low carb breads. However, it’s not really needed.
And, although there are three to four eggs used for the batter, I don’t find these pancakes eggy. I serve them with butter and low carb maple flavored syrup and they taste just like regular ones.
I thought this low carb coconut flour pancake recipe tasted delicious as is. But, I’m always looking for ways to tweak a recipe to make it a little better.
Some my prefer a thinner batter, but I find that results in thin pancakes. That’s why I keep my batter thick. I tried using almond milk, but the batter was way too thin. So be sure to use heavy cream or sour cream.
If you want to make a large batch for quick breakfast treats later, go ahead. I always double or triple the recipe since I already have the griddle out.
They freeze very well. And when you are ready to eat them, there’s no need to thaw. Just pop a frozen stack of pancakes in the microwave to reheat any time you want!
Want perfectly round pancakes? Then use a round pancake ring. It’s ensures that you get a perfect circle every time! However, I find just using a ladle results in pretty even circles.
There are also great low carb options when it comes to syrup. You can always make your own. But, I haven’t had the time to work on my own recipe
And, I don’t have a lot of time to make my own homemade pancake syrup. I love the new syrup by Lakanto, but Walden Farms sells this one that is both calorie and carb free!
I stay away from the sugar free syrups in the grocery store. They tend to have more carbs than I like to see. But, if it’s all you can find, just be sure not to go overboard with carbs.
I’ve been eating the almond flour pancakes for a while, but I like the lighter texture of these low carb coconut flour pancakes. If you’ve tried both, which one do you prefer?
If you’re looking for other keto friendly pancakes to try, I put together a collection of low carb pancake recipes. I’ve made some oat fiber buttermilk pancakes that remind me of the ones I used to get at a local restaurant.
Cream cheese pancakes are super low in carbs and I even have some flourless cinnamon egg fast pancakes that comes together quickly with only 2 grams of net carbs for the whole batch.
And, if you’ve fallen in love with coconut flour, you’ll love this low carb recipe collection using the flour. It’s got some fantastic bread, muffins, and cakes you can make.
If you try these pancakes, I’d love to know what you think about them in the comments. Or, if you end up making changes for better or worse, I’d like to hear those too.
What’s your favorite coconut flour recipe? And, what do you like most about it? For me, it’s my low carb chocolate cake. I make it for all the family birthday celebrations.
Take a look at this collection of recipes using coconut flour if you need some new ideas. I’m always looking for new ways to use this amazing low carb ingredient.

These pancakes are very eggy and not fluffy. I followed the recipe exactly…twice!
Debbie says
These are delicious! And so easy to make. They’re fluffy just like regular pancakes….and if you thin the batter with too much water (like I sometimes do, oops!), they come out a little more crepe-like, but still delicious. I even like the leftovers cold with a little whipped cream cheese. Made a double batch this morning to have non-egg breakfasts for a few days. May try freezing some. Thanks!
Janice says
I made these pancakes this morning for the first time and they were delicious!
I followed the recipe exactly as it was written and they turned out fluffy and light.
(I did add additional heavy whipping cream as they recipe suggested, to thin the batter a little.)
We put a little Smuckers Sugar-Free Breakfast syrup on them, but honestly,
they would have been yummy without it!
I will definitely be making these again!
Thanks for the recipe!
Linda says
These were yummy, but only made four pancakes at 5” diameter. I ate 3, and that totals 718 calories. Quite a huge difference from the calories listed!! 😳
Glenna Parks says
Thank you for sharing this and other recipes. Our family is moving towards a healthier eating regimine and these are helping us to enjoy along the way!
Kate says
The first time I made these they were delicious!!! I followed the recipe exactly then thinned the batter with cream.
Today when I made them, I thinned the batter with water because I was low on cream. The batter instantly changed in appearance and became curdled looking! When cooked, they had an odd gritty texture. All cream from now on for us!
Shelly says
Absolute best low carb pancake!
Brenda says
This recipe was the best low carb pancake recipe I’ve tried so far and I’ve tried about 5. It was easy to make and the pancakes cooked up great. Unfortunately I did not like them, but I think that is just me. I think I’ve come to the realization from trying to bake / cook with coconut flour that I just don’t care for it. These were less eggy and more buttery and fluffier than other pancake recipes I’ve tried so that was great but I just can’t get past the coconut flour I guess. 4 stars for a great recipe though. Thanks! I look forward to trying more of your recipes!!
Anna glass says
First time trying anything with coconut flour, and it was good! I used three eggs and I felt it was still a bit eggy, but I think it’s really a good substitute for regular pancakes.
Ilene Pope says
How much Xanthum gum would you use in this recipe?
Lisa says
It’s not needed in this recipe. But, if you want to try it, only a small amount like 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon.
Kendall Brunner says
Could you use yogurt in place of the sour cream/heavy cream?
Lisa says
I haven’t tried it with this recipe, but it’s worked in similar recipes so worth a try.
Aimee says
Made this recipe today and I used strained low fat Greek yogurt, just because. They where really hard to keep together they kept falling apart. What that my fault ? And also made my stomach kinda off . Do you think it’s because of all the fiber?. Or did I just eat my pancakes raw , because the consistency was more or like a angel cake
Lisa says
I find the pancakes are best when made with heavy cream, but some have been successful using sour cream. It’s never been tried with yogurt.
Kate C says
Can I use just two eggs instead of 4 because I don’t like the eggy taste? Or does it not have the eggy taste? Because I am really sensitive to that eggy taste?
Lisa says
The recipe calls for 3 eggs and an additional one if too thick. You could try adding more cream to thin the batter, but the batter should be somewhat thick. Coconut flour does require a lot of eggs so without testing, I can’t say for sure if it would be okay. I personally don’t find the pancakes eggy.
Nicole says
Can’t handle how good these are. The sweetness from the coconut especially when you cook them with spray coconut oil is awesome doesn’t even need syrup. Some fresh strawberries on top really makes it! If you use low fat sour cream and unsweetened applesauce instead of butter you can get the calorie count down to 40 cal a pancake. That’s o can’t handle how good these are. The sweetness from the coconut especially when you cook them with spray coconut oil is awesome doesn’t even need syrup. Some fresh strawberries on top really makes it! I used low fat sour cream, instead of heavy cream…and 1/8 cup unsweetened applesauce instead of butter it brought the calorie count down to 40 cal a pancake and bigger pancakes too. That about 1 SP per pancake!!!! If you follow WW.
Ellen says
Lol the idea is to keep them low carb. Using low fat sour cream and applesauce would increase the carb count significantly. Definitely wouldn’t be okay for a keto diet.
Fat is not the enemy on these diets!
Also I used a sugar free maple syrup sweetened with sucralose. Super good! 🙂
Suzanne says
I made these today and I loved them! I’ve tried other recipes, but didn’t care for them. This one is a keeper! Thank you!
Carla Morris says
Followed the recipe exactly..
unable to flip the pancakes 🥞
Tasted great but will not try again
Lisa says
Did you let the batter sit to thicken a bit? Also, it helps to make smaller silver dollar size pancakes.
Keri says
Am on Atkins going to try this . Looks so good
Christine says
Just tried this for my first attempt at any pancakes using something other than regular flour. I have Wild Harvest coconut flour, and so I wantes to make pancakes.
I doubled the heavy cream, baking powder and vanilla. I skipped stevia. Not a fan of it. I just used 1 tsp of sugar since this will be an every once in a great while thing for me. Everything else I kept the same.
Cooks up well. Used butter in the frying pan. Tasted great. I got 7 pancakes from the batter. Even my son loves them!
Thanks for posting!!! ❤️
Lisa says
I’m glad it worked out for you!
Miltonmom says
Made these today but with sour cream instead of heavy cream (altho
I did use a little heavy cream to help thin it out a little at the end) and using 1 1/2 tsp Pyure for the stevia. Turned out yummy!
Lisa says
Awesome! Thanks for the tip on the the sour cream.
Whitney says
Would using coconut milk instead of heavy cream work?
Lisa says
You actually need the thickness of cream for the pancakes to come out fluffy.
Tina says
Hi Lisa,
I have made these a ton of times now and adore them. My question is on carb count. I put the 8 carb for coconut flour, but everything else says 0 carb… heavy cream, eggs too. How do you come up with the carb count? Please and thank you.
Tina
Lisa says
It’s one silver dollar sized pancake. I have used two different calculators to determine it based on 12 pancakes.
Mary Martin says
There is carbohydrates in eggs and heavy cream. Whatever your using to track may not be adding the “trace carbs” in. For instance 2 tablespoons of heavy cream has 0.8 carbs.
JoAnna says
I am assuming that you would take the total carb count for recipe and divide by the number of pancakes you come up to determine per pancake carb count.
Tina Farmer says
Hey Lisa!
I must say this is the BEST lchf pancake recipe I have ever had. I’ve had plenty and thrown it out. My son and hubby ate them and went back for more. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
Lisa says
You’re welcome Tina!
Jeff says
As the old saying goes, just because it walks like a duck doesn’t mean it’s a duck. I tried these this morning, added some blueberries for a sweeter taste. While cooking they looked just like regular pancakes, that’s where the similarity stopped. This is the second recipe I have tried using coconut flour the first went into the garbage, this one made it to the plate.. I guess i’m not a fan of coconut flour, the pancakes were a bit gritty, half way through the stack the plate leaned toward the waste basket and they slid in…end of story!
Lisa says
It could also be the coconut flour product you are buying. Mine is never gritty.
Ellen says
try grinding your coconut flour in a coffee grinder before using it. Should help with the grittyness
Megan says
Made these today & YUM!!!! My kids were jealous of my low carb pancakes and wanted to try them. They said these are their new favorites. Thanks for the great recipe!
Lisa says
Awesome!
Julie says
I have a serious sweet tooth, my boyfriend does not. I didn’t enjoy these pancakes on their own but my boyfriend really liked them. He eats them with cheese melted on top! The texture was similar to a wet, slightly gritty pancake, maybe even french toast. I cooked mine in butter so they did have a nice butter flavor but the egginess was still there. They did get the nice crispy brown edges like pancakes and were “spongey” like a pancake. I think if I make them again, I will add more sugar substitute, maybe some cream cheese, and use one less egg. Thank you for the recipe!
Tonya says
Do these freeze well? My kids really like them and I’d like to make these in batches if they do. Thanks!
Lisa says
Yes! These freeze very well. I always make extra for the freezer.
Nome says
Looks like a great recipe! Inwant to try it. But I’m allergic to stevia, do you think I could use Whey-Low instead? (wheylow dot com)
Lisa says
Any equivalent sweetener is fine to use.
Charles says
Great recipe!! Type2 diabetic here. Great to have a pancake again with out all the carbs!! THANK YOU for sharing this! BRAVO ZULU! Well Done!
Lisa says
You’re welcome Charles!
CHARLES WADE says
Made these today. Let me tell you, these ARE GREAT!! TYPE2 diabetic, and it was do good to eat a pancake again without all the carbs!! THANK YOU THANK YOU!! Wonderful!! Can’t tell the difference between these and regular high carb pancakes! Great!!!!
Jane says
I have tried several coconut flour pancake recipes and this one is a keeper! The best I ever tried! I used sour cream and used 1 tsp. vanilla and 1 tsp. baking powder. Also added 1 1/2 pkg. stevia. The other recipes were not fluffy and tasted terrible. This one is actually delicious! Thank you!
Lisa says
Yay! Thanks for writing in.
Jenn says
I made these, first off delish. But my question is the serving size for this recipe is 12? So basically that’s 1 tablespoon per pancake? So about a sandollar size pancake?
Lisa says
I like to keep them small. It’s about 2 tablespoons per pancake from what I recall.
kim says
hi! so 1 pancake is 74 x 12 calories? and 1 x 12g of carb? im confused hehe thanks
Lisa says
I usually eat 3 tiny pancakes, but I provided the data for each one. Most people don’t make the small size like I do so it will be more depending on the size. The data is for 1/12 of the entire recipe.
Ktsativa says
I thought these were great! I’m on Keto and I just love sweets in the morning . I was so sick of eggs. They reminded me a little of French toast which is a plus.
Rhonda says
Hi, I made these pancakes this morning and the taste was good but the texture is gritty and they kinda just fall apart in your mouth. Should I have done something different
Lisa says
It could be your ingredients. The coconut flour should be very fine so it isn’t gritty. I’m not sure why you’re getting a gritty texture. I’ve used Anthony’s and Better Body coconut flour without issue.
Liz Perez says
I wonder if i could add almond milk instead of heavy cream. Is that low carb?
Lisa says
Unsweetened almond milk is low carb. But, it may not work well in this recipe as it’s much thinner.
gritsgirltn says
I have been searching for a great coconut flour pancake recipe because my son loves pancakes but we’re trying to go gluten free. My oldest son is allergic to eggs however , sorry if this has already been asked but, does anyone know if there is a way to substitute the eggs? I suppose it wouldn’t be good if they were left out?
Lisa says
You could try gelatin eggs, psyllium eggs, chia eggs, or flax eggs. I have had good luck with gelatin and psyllium, but haven’t tried it in this recipe.
Sam says
Has he tried duck eggs? Often duck eggs are okay when chicken eggs are not.
Michelle says
Hi! Mine did not turn out too well. BUT, I am new to trying to bake low carb substitutes. I usually just go without anything remotely like bread. I also didn’t have heavy cream so I used 1/2 and 1/2. The batter was lumpy and grainy and didn’t hold together. However, I read through the comments and saw many areas where I could improve my technique. I also think I cooked them too hot. So many fails for this newbie. I am going to try them again with sour cream and overall just being more careful. The best part was that I was going to manually add the recipe to my calorie tracking app but it was already in there! So great. Thank you.
Lisa says
Sour cream is a better sub than half and half. The pancakes don’t work so well if you use a thinner liquid. And, definitely cook at a lower griddle temp.
Janet says
Ok. So I’ve really missed pancakes (and grits) since going keto a few months ago. I’ve tried several pancake recipes that said “the best!” Not. 🙄 But this one? The best. Texture is the closest to flour pancakes. Not eggy. And I like to brown and crispy the outside of pancakes. This is the first keto one that has allowed this! Yay. I also discovered that the batter will stay nicely a few days in the frig. This is a keeper that I’ve shared with others. ☺️ Now if you could just give this southern girl some keto grits! 🤣 Thanks so much! ❤️🎁
Lisa says
I’ve actually made mock grits from cauliflower. I should probably post the recipe.
tammy says
i would love to hear about the grits recipe
Lis says
Finally a coconut flour recipe that worked! I tried 3-4 before yours and the end result was never anything that looked like pancakes. Yours was good though. Topped them with fruit, very satisfying.
Lisa says
Yay! I’m so happy mine worked for you!
Melissa says
I saw this recipe online and decided that we were having pancakes for dinner. These came out great and so much better than the other coconut flour pancakes I have made! My kids loved them. I doubled the recipe, but only had 5 eggs, so I used some extra cream and water to thin the batter. I wasn’t sure how that would affect the pancakes, but they still came out light and fluffy. Definitely keeping this recipe in rotation! Thanks!
Lisa says
Pancakes make a great quick dinner! Good to know it works with less eggs and extra liquid.
christina says
These didn’t work for me. It was a big pile of broken pieces of pancakes. The batter consistency was not right either, very thick. I had to water down with a mixture of cup of water and coconut milk. Although in hindsight if I left it that thick maybe it would not have fallen apart upon flipping. I did sub the eggs for flax eggs, that’s the only thing I changed. I feel coconut flour pancakes are not meant to be. I have looked at many other recipe’s reviews and they all had similar problems with consistency.
Lisa says
The batter should be thick and flax eggs may not work properly in the recipe. Real eggs hold them together too.
Karissa says
YUM! I love that these use coconut flour as I always find almond flour so dense in pancakes. Huge hit with the fam, and everyone is exited to now have a fluffy, true-to-life pancake!
Lisa says
Agree! We prefer coconut flour because it’s lighter and almond flour is inflammatory.
Myssie says
What if I don’t have a sweetener? Will it ruin the recipe?
Lisa says
It shouldn’t. The sweetener is only added to enhance the taste. Not really required.
Terri Larimore says
what is the equivalent of “1 packet” of Stevia?
Lisa says
It’s about 1 teaspoon of sugar equivalent.
Badihahmsr says
This is sooo goood
You should try it with some melted chocolate and whipping cream
I ate with some no bake cheesecake . Such a random combination but i made it in the same day . So i do eat it together 🙂
Lisa says
That does sound delicious! I will definitely give it a try.
Arlene Gautier says
These pancakes will be a nice go to for a change from me eating eggs
Yannie says
Just made these! Color/shape was spot on, and the texture was nice. However, most of them were quite flat. Should i up the baking powder a bit? Also, has anyone tried subbing in some oat fiber (maybe 1/3 of total flour) to lower the net carbs a bit and taste a bit less coconut-ey?
Thanks again!
Lisa says
Oat fiber is a great add. But, you’ll need about 3-4 times as much to replace part of the coconut flour. Also, more baking powder should give a better rise.
April says
Sorry if it has already been asked but I noticed you mentioned that a serving size is 3 small pancakes. Does the 74 calories apply to all 3 pancakes or 74 calories for each individual pancake?
Lisa says
It’s one pancake as stated in the label.
Jan Mayo says
under nutritional guide it says (1) pancake–
Holly says
Wonderful flavour and texture!! I do wish each serving made a larger pancake, but 3 small pancakes does satisfy. I used Lakanto (monk fruit) instead of stevia because I prefer the taste, and it turned out wonderfully!! The rest of the batch will go into the freezer for future breakfasts!
Lisa says
I use Lakanto monk fruit sweetener too, but haven’t tried it in this recipe.
Gwen says
Great, I will use Monk Fruit, as well for the same reason! Thanx Lisa!
Kathy Farrell says
I used half coconut flour and half almond flour. I reduced the eggs to two. The pancakes were so light and fluffy and didn’t have that “eggy” taste. I’ve made these several times. So good.
Lisa says
Thanks for sharing!
Gwen says
This is likely what I will do as I love the taste of Almond Flour even more than Coconut! Thanx for the idea, Kathy!
Rich says
I never comment on recipes I try but I had to comment on this one.
I made these last night for the first time. Never cooked with coconut flour before so did not know what to expect in regards to taste. I am new to the whole low carb or Keto diet.
But holy cow they were fantastic!! I was able to find some sugar free syrup in my local grocery store. And man were they good.
Going to have to buy the big bag of Coconut flour as I will be having these for breakfast for now on!
Thanks for the great recipe
Rich
Lisa says
Thanks for commenting! It means a lot that you took the time to let us know how the recipe worked out. I prefer this recipe over the almond flour one.
LinzAnn says
I haven’t made or eaten much in terms of strict keto or paleo recipes, so I question my own appraisal in terms of how reasonable my expectations are when using limited and alternative ingredients. But I like to experiment in the kitchen, so my repetoire frequently includes “fringe” ingredients like matcha, nut butters and various untraditional flours, and I look for recipes that let me try them.
I used 3 eggs and a smidge of fresh buttermilk with my cream, and I still found the recipe to be a little bit eggy. I noticed this more when I tried to hurry up the process and cranked the heat to medium. Whoops! Can’t do that with these. I singed the delicate egg and tasted that crisp burned egg flavor. It was a little messy for a first timer trying to learn the ropes of grittier flour and egg forward flapjacks, but I still ended up with an empty plate of crumbs and maple syrup so I have to give it 4 stars instead of 3 🙂
Lisa says
It is best to lower the heat for these pancakes so it cooks well inside without burning the inside. Thanks for sharing your experience with the recipe!
Shelby says
Does anyone know the amount for a sing serving? I tried my best but .1 cups of everything doesn’t give me much to go on. it tasted good, however… It didn’t stay together. it just turned into nothing but crumbles. it’s not dry, that’s for sure, and it tastes amazing with the syrup I made, buttt…. yeah, crumbly. kinda feels liek I made a pie crust.
Lisa says
It sounds like there wasn’t enough liquid. You may need to add in another egg or reduce the amount of coconut flour. A serving is 3 small pancakes or 1-2 larger ones.
Judy says
I live at sea level. I read through the commend and added a squirt of lemon juice to the whipping cream and a half teaspoon of soda and an 8th teaspoon of Xantham gum. I beat the batter up and it was too thick. Added one more egg and it was perfect
Using a 1/8 measure I was able to get 12 pancakes. They looked on the small side from what I was used to eating but ate 3 with a strip of bacon (I could always get more ). Wow it was enough and I will have 3 more meals in the freezer. Happy happy!
Lisa says
Thanks for sharing! The original recipe did use the additional egg.
Leigh Henderson says
Thank you so much for this recipe! They were so good that I doubted they could possibly be low carb, lol. I did add a 1/4 tsp of Xantham Gum, and used salted butter instead of unsalted as I didn’t have any on hand. They weren’t as pretty as yours, but I prefer misshapen pancakes😜.
Lisa says
The secret to pretty pancakes that are perfectly round are pancake rings! 😀
Sharon says
I’ve made these twice and really really like them. They were so fluffy! Thank you so much, Lisa! I’ve had SUCH a craving for pancakes since I’ve been keto and needed this so badly! 🙂 I never have unsalted butter around, so I used regular butter and just a tiny pinch of added salt. They were perfect! The second time I made them, I wanted to play with flavor, so I added orange essential oil and it was so delicious! I also don’t have sugar free syrups around, so I sprinkled mine with erythritol and cinnamon.
For those complaining about the coarseness of coconut flour, it’s the brand of coconut flour you’re using. A finer grind is what you need. I use Coconut Secret Raw Coconut Flour, it’s ground to a powder. In the past, I’ve had coarse coconut flour too, but found that grinding it in a coffee grinder fixed the problem. Next time I just bought better coconut flour. (Coconut flour will never be as silky as wheat flour, but if you have to give up wheat, it’s a true blessing to have a good, fine coconut flour on hand.)
Lisa says
Great tip on the coconut flour. I have been using Anthony’s and Better Body. I usually use salted butter, but others may think it’s too salty.
Georganna Lujin says
Oh my goodness these are soooo yummy! I love cream cheese so I used 2 tablespoons of butter and 2 tablespoons of cream cheese. Delicious! These are my new go-to pancakes!!!!!
Lisa says
Love the added cream cheese. Thanks for sharing!
Debra says
Yum! These were good. Used sour cream. Silicone ring would have made close to 12. Just putting in pan I got 9. Great texture and pancake like. Cook on really low heat and don’t flip till slightly set on topside. Thanks for recipe!
Lisa says
Thanks for the tips Debra! I’ll have to try using sour cream.
kathy says
these were pretty darn good. we are doing the atkins diet and was looking for something different for breakfast. made half a recipe to see how they came out. the little pancakes filled the bill nicely.
Lisa says
Thanks for writing in Kathy! Wishing you much success on Atkins.
Kyle Phillips says
Wouldn’t these be carb free? The amount of fiber outnumbers the amount of carbs, by quite a bit in coconut flour
Lisa says
There are carbs after deducting fiber so it’s low carb but not no carb.
Regina says
Do you know approx how many carbs are in one pancake? Even a wild guess??
I made them for the whole family- big winner!
I added half a tsp of Maple extract and another of Hazelnut extract (didint have Vanilla). Please respond about the Carb count so I can add it to my calculator! Cuz I’ll be having these every week!
Lisa says
It’s in the label at the bottom of the recipe.
Angelina says
I followed the recipe exactly as it was listed. I really enjoyed them. Thank you so much for sharing this recipe.
Lisa says
My pleasure.
Kim says
The recipe only made three pancakes. It must make twelve if you make very small pancakes. The texture is somewhat dry and crumbly in your mouth. I suppose the solution is an extra egg, but this recipe is already loaded with eggs and other fats. The amount of flour is nominal compared to all the dairy. Low carb is great, but not when it results in pancakes that have over ten grams of fat per pancake (unless you make very small pancakes and only eat one, which doesn’t sound filling at all).
Lisa says
It may have been your coconut flour. Some is more absorbant than others. And, if the batter was thick, it’s best to add in more liquid. I prefer making small silver dollar pancakes and I typically get 10-12 of which 3 is a filling serving that is equivalent to one large pancake.
Sharon says
Many who follow a low carb diet are also trying to get more good fats in their diet, so this recipe with the eggs and butter is perfect. For health reasons, my doctor has me following a ketogenic diet and these fit perfectly into that. Fat is good for the body and brain and health.
Also, she did say the recipe makes 12 2-3 inch pancakes. That means you were supposed to make them small.
Marcene says
I tried them last night . I got 8 & yes they were small but after 2, I was full. I used coconut sugar, 2% milk as I didn’t have sour cream, no water, added some chocolate chips & a thawed frozen banana. Made them lower in carbs. Careful not have fire high. Med is kinda high.
After months of doing w/o flour, Yum.
Lisa says
Good tip! The fire definitely needs to be down or they can burn before cooking on the inside.
Jessica says
What if I have no stevia packets but I have stevia how much should be put in?
Lisa says
You only need like 1 teaspoon sugar equivalent so it depends on the stevia product you are using.
Darcy says
Can you substitute with Swerve sweetener?
Lisa says
You can use any sweetener. Just use a small amount suitable for one serving. For Swerve, I’d use about a teaspoon.
Kevin says
How much stevia is in a packet? I didn’t buy packets
Lisa says
It’s one serving so just use the single serving amount for the stevia that you use.
Madonna Vanzant says
I should have used 4 eggs instead of 3. They were thick. I added a little more cream. They were hard to flip over. Made a mess. Tasted good though. I ate them with marscapone cream cheese and strawberries.
Lisa says
If the batter is too thick, definitely add in another egg and or other liquid.
Tisa says
These were yum. For the people who find them flat, maybe use a little lemon juice in the cream and then add 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda in addition to the baking powder to the dry ingredients. Plus I used the tinest bit of xantham gum also. Had to add a little water to the batter for second batch but I usually have to thin down regular pancakes also. Mine had plenty of lift while cooking. I didn’t expect them to be like regular pancakes but they sure are are a treat when you are low carbing. Thanks for the recipe!
Lisa says
Thanks so much for sharing your tips Tisa!
Trish says
I added sparkling water. Gives a good boost to the levener.
Melissa says
These are awesome !! I used an egg ring (about 6 in wide) purchased from BB&B… loved it ! Made them thicker than the first time I tried this recipe . Thanks Lisa !!
Lisa says
You’re welcome Melissa! The rings do make a difference!
Rachel says
These were great! I only got eight pancakes out of the batch, but so worth it. I also substituted 1/4 cup applesauce instead of the butter to cut calories, they were still great! And I substituted stevia for 3/4 teaspoon Agave. Will definitely make these again!
Lisa says
Great subs for those who want gluten free but not low carb!
Kristina says
These pancakes are seriously delicious. I ate them all. The entire batch… in one sitting. No way you can eat just one. I’m going to make them again now, but might only make a half batch because I have NO SELF CONTROL 😬
Lisa says
I eat 3 at a time, and they are small. But, I used to have trouble eating just a few. That’s why I freeze them in 3 piece servings so I don’t overeat them.
Kathryn Johnson says
Made these this morning and enjoyed them! I’ve been doing keto x 6 1/2 weeks, so this was a really nice “sweet” treat. I did add a tad more cream because my batter looked too thick. Maybe 1 or 2 Tbsp more. I was thinking I could try it next time with a little toasted unsweetened coconut flakes added. Do you think that could/would be good or even work? The texture, of course, is different because of the change in flour, but I’m very happy to have found your recipe! Thank you. Was also thinking of adding a little ricotta cheese or softened cream cheese to the batter. Soooo many possibilities!!! Can’t wait for next time. Great idea to make a big batch n save in freezer for easy breakfast or snacks. I like the idea of the peanut powder to switch it up a little, too. #happygirl
Lisa says
I’ve been wanting to try a ricotta pancake. Haven’t tried those yet.
Renee says
This is my second time making them. They remind me of my mom’s pancakes. I used ricotta instead of cream this time around. Also added a bit of bubbly mineral water to thin out the batter and help with the rise . Omitted the sweetner because I don’t think it makes a difference, plus I use Lakanto syrup for afterwards. Yummy, yummy.
Lisa says
It definitely doesn’t need the sweetener, but I find it enhances the taste. Coconut flour is a bit sweet. I’ve got some ricotta in the fridge so may give that a try.
Zaheeda Tshankie says
I remember making these a few months back and the salt was too much, I knew it would be too much but I went against my baking instinct.
Tried them and gain with far less salt and they’re a hit with the family. They’re great absolutely among the top 2 best recipes I’ve used.
Lisa says
I have received that comment a lot so I adjusted the recipe to use less salt (it’s only 1/4 teaspoon whereas it used to be 1/2).
Kathy says
These are very good and not eggy tasting at all!! Thanks for the great recipe! 😊
Lisa says
Thanks for the feedback Kathy! So glad you liked them.
MA says
Unfortunately these are no for me. I’m new to keto and never used alternative flours before. I think my coconut flour is too coarse? Its almost like dessicated coconut but smaller pieces . I used only 2 large eggs and its very eggy more than French toast which is sorta the consistency of my pancakes! Not fluffy and soft as pictured. I used whipping cream. The batter was thick at first then I added the flour and it separated I had to keep mixing each spoonful. I had to use double the flour to get it thick enough to spoon as in the video. They do cook and hold together and are edible but I am very dissatisfied with my outcome. Maybe I did something wrong or my ingredients but 😢
Lisa says
It sounds like your flour wasn’t true coconut flour. Sometimes ground up dessicated coconut is sold as coconut flour, but it’s not the same thing.
Deb says
Agreed! Made these today & they were awful. Used all ingredients mentioned & they all but crumbled in the pan when trying to flip over. Will search more recipes. This one is thumbs down.
Lisa says
You may have had the heat too high and may have turned them too early.
Debra says
I made these exactly as the recipe reads, except less salt and more cream. Didn’t have any trouble with texture, crumbling, or taste. I could have eaten the entire dozen!
Maybe you should try again. Or, altitude can play a role. Do you live at a high altitude?
Brenda says
I was worried that My batter was too thick and it appeared as if the butter was separating but I went ahead and tried to cook them anyway without thinning. I dropped a large spoonful of batter in the pan since it was too thick to pour and as the pancake cooked the batter got smoother and they cooked up great.
Tracey says
Made these today. They were perfect. I have to find the little round things to make the perfectly round pancakes. I used mine for a vehicle for my taco meat ,cheese ,and sour cream. I will use it for its true purpose this Saturday. This is a keeper.
Lisa says
What a great idea! I never thought to use them for tacos.
Courtney says
These are the best low carb pancakes I’ve come across so far. I didn’t have low carb syrup so I just used a little cream cheese. Delicious! Thanks for the recipe 🙂
Lisa says
My pleasure. I’m glad you enjoyed them as much as I do.
Angie R says
Delicious and easy to make. I never keep salted butter, so there was no salt taste to me at all. I sprinkled cinnamon, and I added my own no sugar peanut butter for more protein. I also used Pyure as my sweetener. I made them “low and slow” on my griddle sprayed with coconut oil (about 250 degrees.) If you’re using to low carb recipes, these are a cinch! Would pair perfectly with collagen coffee for a breakfast meal. This recipe is a keeper. I’ll be stocking my freezer for when baby comes in 2 weeks!
Lisa says
That’s exactly how I enjoy these… with my collagen coffee!
Monica says
I’m going to use Costco extra large eggs because that’s what we buy.. should I reduce to 2? Or still use 3?
Lisa says
I’d use 2 and see how the batter looks. I think 3 extra large would be too much.
Cheryl says
I just made these and they were delicious. Looking for the rings. And a coconut cake now I am craving coconut cake.
Lisa says
Any kitchen store should sell the rings. I like the silicone ones as the metal ones can stick.
Cassandra says
I just made these pancake..They’re pretty good !..They kinda taste like french toast too which I find yummy and they were fluffy ^^ ..I used salted butter and didn’t add the salt & they came out well..Thank you for this recipe. This is my first low carb pancake recipe I’ve tried and I will make it again♥
Lisa says
I’m glad these worked out for you! Some did think the original was too salty so I did reduce the amount.
Kali says
These were easy to make, quite fluffy, and decent texture for a true pancake substitute. They weren’t too eggy or coconut flavored, BUT they were EXTREMELY salty. I should have read the comments before, but noticed you mentioned to use unsalted butter. You probably should put that in the actual recipe. I’ll be making these again, but with half the salt and unsalted butter.
Lisa says
Sorry about that. I’ll get it fixed.
Jen says
Wow! After many, MANY ATROCIOUS low carb anything recipies, I must say that these were delicious! ❤️ I have thought about giving up many times despite good losses because the recipies are so awful, plus I can’t stand Stevia! The only tweak I did was use a single Splenda pack and add cinnamon. I will be following since you are one of the only ones I’ve liked ! Thanks for posting this!
Lisa says
Thanks so much Jen! 😀
Sigrid says
Mine had quite a coarse texture. Plus they turned out way darker than yours, even on very low heat. I would also second all those who say it’s too much salt. It was way too much!
Lisa says
To reduce salt, use unsalted butter. I cook mine on a griddle at 325F and never had an issue.
Shalom Weiss says
Thanks for sharing this recipe, I just tried it. Delicious:) I so used to regular pancakes, so I was not sure what to expect. It’s different, but has the same feel and it is yummy.
Lisa says
We love these pancakes too! Even the kids eat them.
Michelle says
I made these this morning from the exact recipe except I added the cars for a little extra protein, and I think they were fabulous! Will make them again !!!
Lisa says
Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
Shirley Williams says
What did you add for protein?
Alisa Ewert says
This is what i was searching, You gave perfect recipe and I am Professional Cook your recipe helped a lot.
Thank You
Lisa says
Thanks Alisa.
Monica says
These are sooooo good! I’ve made half a dozen low carb pancake recipes over the last year, but none of them were very good. I had almost given up, but decided to give these a try, and boy I’m glad that I did! The texture reminded me of a real whole grain pancake. Yummy!
Lisa says
So glad you like them. They are one of my favorites and I usually have some frozen in the freezer. In fact, I reheated a couple for breakfast this morning.
Jessica says
Just curious if you think you could sub Greek yogurt or yogurt for the heavy cream … I have some I need to use up and I was thinking to do it with this on Saturday …
Lisa says
I think it’s worth a try. If it’s too thick, you can water it down.
Josephine Carroll says
Hi Lisa,
Just made these this morning, they taste really good but they are very salty, I used sour cream instead, and 1/2 tsp stevia as I did not have a packet is that the reason?
Thanks for the recipe Lisa.
Lisa says
It’s likely the butter. You should try unsalted next time.
chad says
Hi Lisa,
Thanks for sharing this wonderful recipe of your’s.
I’m not really fan of pancakes. But now I am.
I’ve posted it on my site for reference.
Thanks for sharing!
Chad
Lisa says
Thanks Chad!
KP says
These were good! Mine fluffed up just fine. Use a hot iron skilled sprayed with some coconut oil. I would back off on the salt, though. They have a salty after-taste to me. They reminded me of French toast, so I sprinkled lots of cinnamon on them and used my friend’s homemade maple syrup from his trees. Next I’ll try the almond flour recipe. Thanks.
Lisa says
Yum! I miss real maple syrup. I’ve never made it myself, but there are a lot of local places here that make it.
Antoinette says
I was wondering in order to keep it low carb but add more protein how much protein powder could I add to mix or should I sub the Almond flour out and replace it with a protein powder?
Lisa says
I typically sub out almond flour one for one with protein powder.
Barb says
If making in a whoopie pie pan how long do you keep them in the oven for?
Lisa says
I’ve never done it before, but I’d think no more than 10-15 minutes at 350F.
Ashley says
Im going to try these tomorrow and replace half of the coconut flour with ground flax seed, should bring the carb count down to just about zero but up the protein quite a bit.
Lisa says
Hope that works out! You may need a bit more flax than coconut flour.
Marie says
I made these today but baked them in woopie pie pan (350 degrees for 12 mins) and added blueberries before cooking. Yum!
Lisa says
Whoopie pie molds are perfect for making them nice and round!
Og says
I tried iT , i am from THE netherlands. I didnt get no fluff and iT tasted eggy 😪 Is that picture from the pancakes yours ? I was so excited to make them 🙄
Lisa says
It is. The heavy cream really makes the batter thick so they cook up thick.
Allen says
How about adding sparkling. If this sounds good (which I think it does), how much should I add?
Lisa says
You could try adding a little sparkling water, but if the batter gets too thin, will need to add more coconut flour.
Ami says
I had the same problem except mine also smelled horrible! I followed this recipe to the letter and it tasted like coconut eggs, and smelled like feet. Not even smothering them in my homemade syrup could take the taste/smell away. Threw out the whole batch. Next time I’ll read the comments before wasting ingredients.
Lisa says
What brand of coconut flour are you using? Are you also making it with large sized eggs? I’ve made this recipe numerous times without issue.
Brandi says
Came home starving & made this recipe. Don’t know what I did wrong but my batter looked like brick mortar. It wasn’t even useable. So sad
Lisa says
Just add more liquid and it should have been fine.
Sara says
Did you ever end up making these with the xantham gum?
I have some on hand and trying to decide if i should add it or not.. how much did you/would you add?
Thanks! Pancakes are my addiction and it’s so hard to find keto-style ones that taste like actual pancakes. Excited to try these!
Lisa says
I find they don’t need xanthan gum.
Katrina says
Sara if these didn’t work try this one
In a counter mixer (i cant afford a bukket i got a 9 dollar walmart one) add 1 egg, 2oz cream cheese, 1/4 cup heavy whipping cream, dash salt, dash vanilla, 1/2 teaspoon baking powder and 1 scoop protein powder and blend. I mix mine up with Quest peanut butter powder and add cocoa powder. Or I do 1/4 cup no sugar added canned apples and cinnamon and pecans and then mix with quest salted caramel protein powder. Quest is sweet enough I never add sweetener but depends on your powder you use. Best pancakes ever cooked in butter. Eat with bacon and you will never miss regular pancakes!
Michael Thurman says
I had to add more liquid to mine after it sat for a bit and came out incredible. Will be stocking these in the freezer.
Lisa says
I find that coconut flour does vary a bit and if you let it sit, it will thicken. Good to know they came out okay adding in more liquid!
Vanessa says
These were delicious! Followed the recipe exactly and topped with a homemade sugar free blueberry compote. Thank you!!
Lisa says
You’re welcome Vanessa!
Jane says
Could you substitute almond flour for the coconut flour? Has anyone tried it and would it be 1 to 1?
Thanks,
Jane
Lisa says
You’re better off just making the almond flour pancakes recipe instead.
Jon says
Hey there, this looks like a nice recipe. I’m wondering, if I wanted to add 3 scoops of Quest Protein Powder, do you think it could work? Would what I need to omit in order to accommodate the extra protein?
Lisa says
From my experience, protein powder can be used in place of some flour. 3 scoops seems like a lot so you’d have to up some of the other ingredients until you got a batter that works.
Heather says
I love these!! I left out the stevia & vanilla & made waffles for a bacon & tomato grilled cheese. Delicious. Thank you!!!
Lisa says
Yum! That does sound delicious!
Sandy Lane says
I made these and they were fantastic! I used Heavy Cream and doubled the vanilla. They were fluffy & tasty!! They just didn’t make 12 servings. My spouse and I both had 3 pancakes a piece and I even sprinkled some flaky coconut on top 😉 We are both on a low carb diet and I used sugar-free syrup in moderation.
Lisa says
I got 12 small pancakes which a serving might be 3 of them or more.
Lisa Burney says
I made these and they were absolutely delicious!! But I also only got 6 small pancakes out of it.
Lisa says
I like making silver dollar size pancakes which are very small.
Lori says
Just made these exactly according to the recipe and they were perfect! Even fed them to my 11 year old grandson who hates coconut but I didn’t tell him what they were made of and he loved them! No coconut taste whatsoever. They just tasted like soft fluffy delicious pancakes. You have made my keto life a little better and I will definitely make these again (and again). 👍
Lisa says
Love that he couldn’t detect the coconut!
Amanda says
Hi I tried the recipe and followed it exactly I had everything on hand. However my pancakes came out extremely thin and I’m trying to figure out what I might have done wrong. I checked my baking powder and it’s not expired has a whole year left but it is called double acting do you think that’s a problem? I trust your recipe is good as I’ve tried several others of yours and they’ve all been good so I’m trying to figure out what I did LOL.
Lisa says
If I don’t use heavy cream, the pancakes do come out thin and flat. Was your cream the highest fat?
Keto Mom says
The best pancake ever. My husband said he never wants another kind of pancake. I cooked them in coconut oil. Definitely a staple at our house.
Lisa says
So glad the hubby enjoys them! I wish I could convince my husband to eat them.
Mayda says
I didn’t have heavy cream used half and half. They were delicious just not fluffy enough.
Lisa says
It’s the HWC that makes them fluffy so that’s to be expected.
Allison says
Oh. My. Word. Amazing! Made low carb blueberry compote to go with and it is the perfect start to my day!!
Lisa says
Yum on the blueberry compote!
Zaheeda Tshankie says
I have no words for these, my 21 month old boy kept asking for more haha. The taste is just wow
Lisa says
That’s awesome! So glad he liked them 🙂
Anne says
These pancakes are AMAZING!! My whole family loved them, even my pickiest eaters. Like another commenter, I used only 3 eggs. They turned out perfect and the closest I’ve had to flour pancakes. Thank you for this great recipe!! 😀
Lisa says
I will make a note of the 3 eggs!
Ching says
OMG i made this and it is delish! I did not follow the entire recipe but still turned up great. I made a bacon and egg sandwich with tomatoes and avocado. It is very filling!
Lisa says
The breakfast sandwich is a great idea!
Phyl says
Could these be made with egg whites only (I’m allergic to egg yolks)? Would probably need to use more egg white to equal what is missing by leaving out the yolk. I wasn’t sure if it would change the overall texture of the pancakes
Lisa says
I’ve never used all egg whites. But, it’s worth a try. The standard sub is 2 egg whites for a whole egg.
Phyl says
I’ll be the test case and let you know how they turn out. Unfortunately, I won’t be able to make a comparison the original version which uses the yolks, too.
Phyl says
We tried these this morning using all egg whites rather than whole eggs. I thought they were good but my husband didn’t care for them (he doesn’t like change of any kind). When I make them again, I would use less salt because they tasted quite salty to me — assuming that might be from using all egg whites, but not sure. Thank you for sharing the recipe!
Gordana Minovska says
I agree about the salt. It is too much for me too.
Moon says
Excellent!!! Very tasty and fluffly pancakes!! Love it! 🙂 (but i just got 6 of them 🙁 maybe i made them too big or fluffly hahaha) thanks for the recipe!! For next time I will try to make some homemade syrup! <3
Lisa says
I make mine very small, almost silver dollar sized.
Priscilla Ciochetto says
Only 6 for me too! The taste is deeeelicious and reminds me of pancake house pancakes. I just looked up and noticed you made them silver dollar size which would explain the quantity difference but non the less…a home run for our house. 2 of us are low carb enthusiasts and always on the look out for different type of breakfast foods.
I just made these and will double the batch tomorrow and freeze some. Thank you so much. Happy dancing going on here. Priscilla C
Diane Cuc says
I loved loved loved these. My go to recipe from here forward. Light, fluffy, golden. Perfect! I too only got 7 pancakes, about 3″ in size. I didnt notice them to be salty, however I used unsalted butter. If I use salted butter next time, could I omit the addition of 1/2 tsp. Salt? Thanks, Diane
Lisa says
I’d omit the salt. I must really like salt because I’m okay with the recipe as is.
LSS says
Can I use eggbeater for part of the eggs? Just thinking cholesterol!!
Lisa says
Nothing wrong with eating cholesterol, but you can sub if desired.
Marisela says
Marisela from ☆ Texas: preparandolos ahorita, deliciosos!! resultaron casi 10 pancakes, use solo 3 huevos, imitation hazelnut extract, no muy esponjaditos, pero si ligeros, buen sabor y muy facil de preparar…Gracias por compartir recetas sin gluten. Feliz Navidad! !♡♡
Lisa says
Me encanta la idea de añadir extracto de avellana Marisela! ¡Disfrute sus vacaciones!
Debbie says
These are really good! Have you tried using Ghee instead of butter and if so do they turn out as good?
Lisa says
I haven’t tried ghee, but I’m thinking it would work okay.
Judy G says
Hi. I would like to try these. I am a little confused. In the directions it says to mix coconut flour with baking powder but the ingredients does not list baking powder?
Lisa says
It’s below the ad (sorry, they pop up in the recipe box). The amount is 1/2 teaspoon.
Jessica Ureña says
Hi I want to cook but my daughter has problems with dairy how I can sustitute butter and heavy cream
Thanks
Lisa says
You could try coconut cream and coconut oil. The heavy cream helps give a fluffy pancake so you’d need a similar ingredient like coconut cream.
Janet says
I didn’t use heavy cream but sour cream and it worked really well.
Lisa says
Thanks for the note!
Lydia says
Is there a substitute for stevia? Or maybe how much is 1 packet?
I have stevia in like a jar.
Lisa says
A packet is equal to about 1 teaspoon of sugar if you want to do the conversion.
Ray says
Goggle it. There will be a few answers and go with the most common. I find that is usually more reliable than a conversion.
Priscilla says
I made these today and I must say they came out very moist! I also just used 3 eggs instead of 4. Thanks for the recipe! I will definitely use it often in my low carb lifestyle.
Lisa says
Thanks for the note! I was going to try using less eggs to see if it improved taste.
txgrandma says
I just tried these yesterday and they are the best recipe I’ve tried yet. They look and taste like real pancakes to me. IMO-far superior to almond flour pancakes. Thanks!
Lisa says
Glad the recipe worked out for you. There does seem to be some variations with coconut flour that may need adjusting.
Rachel says
These tasted like omlettes to me! Yuck, with a sweetness to them. I found them unpallettable, until I smeared gobs of peanut butter all over them to get them down the hatch. I used nutiva butter flavored coconut oil in place of butter, but nothing masked the egginess.
Lisa says
I’ll be reworking this recipe to see if I can tone down the egg taste.
Sylvia says
I loved these pancakes. Very filling. But the nutrition info changed when I put into Bigoven.
Lisa says
I need to recalculate some of these older recipes. They were done from label information with the brand of ingredients used.
Beverly says
I have heavy whipping cream. Can I substitute for the heavy cream?
Kathy Prince says
Heavy Cream and Heavy Whipping Cream are virtually the same thing and are interchangeable in any recipe. The only difference is the amount of milk fat in them. The Heavy Cream has slightly more milk fat. So it produces a thicker whipped cream that holds up longer once whipped. The Whipping Cream makes a lighter whipped cream and it breaks down faster. As far as recipes go, it cooks the same, just adds or reduces the total fat content shown in the Nutritional Information.
Lisa says
Great info! Thanks for sharing.
D. Copeland says
I made these and they were very good . I only used 3 eggs tho and they turned out great !
Lisa says
Good to know 3 eggs work. Thanks!
Anna says
This recipe has worked out very well for me. It is definitely a keeper.
Lisa says
Great to know! Thanks so much for the comment!
Rochelle says
Can you keep the batter in the refrigerator for a few days?
I have been making the egg/cream cheese pancakes. They just taste a bit eggy for me. I like this idea of coconut flour ones.
Lisa says
You should be able to keep it in the fridge. If it gets flat, jut whip it back up. It may get thick sitting. If that happens, add a bit more liquid.
DeeDee says
I make mine all up, then pop 2 into the toaster to warm up when needed. I’ve even froze them. Works great!
Lisa says
I’ve never tried the toaster. Good idea!
Angela says
I just made these pancakes and they were delicious; a little dry but had a lot of flavor. I topped them with sugar-free honey that I found in Walmart. Any suggestions so that they are not so dry?
Lisa says
Adding more butter or oil should get rid of any dryness.
Pj says
Sugar free honey?? How could that be and what the heck is in it?? Got to research that one…LOL
Lisa says
There isn’t sugar free honey, but there is Sukrin Gold Syrup which is the closest thing that I’ve found to honey. It can be subbed one for one, but it may cause insulin to spike due to all the fiber.
Brandy says

I don’t know that I would try it but that is what they were referring to.
Laura tucker says
I use trivia nectar…looks and tastes like honey but made with stevia. You only use half what you would honey and very low carb! Gestational diabetic here and have to really watch carbs!
Lisa says
I have seen that, but it does have a bit more carbs than some people allow.
Karin MARSHALL says
What kind of sirup do you use?
Lisa says
I like the pancake syrup made by Walden Farms because it is carb and calorie free.
Melodie says
I puree either strawberries, raspberries or blueberries to top my pancakes….very good !
Lisa says
That sounds like a great way to top them off. Yum!
Retiredwithnoregrets says
A friend on MixingBowl.com shared a coconut pancake recipe with me some time ago. I loved it! So I know these are very good.
