Project: Coconut Pancakes
EN
Pancakes are happy foods!
My mum used to make them for
us when we did good when we were kiddos. So whenever we get the chance to eat
pancakes it was a real treat and a rewarding feeling.
Making pancakes is also my
first time experiencing cooking in the kitchen! It was so important for me to
master the art of pancake making.
But making pancakes is kind
of child play anyways because it’s simply mixing ingredients together until
smooth without having a hardcore measuring beforehand.
Today’s recipe is also child
play with an extra ingredient twist: coconut!
Coconut, coconut, coconut
and again coconut!
It seems that thé coconut is
the holy grail in many fronts nowadays such as in beauty, food and health.
I’ve added coconut to my
pancakes mainly because coconut has an amazing taste!
So my recipe is not vegan
friendly, gluten free or low fat friendly. It’s pure indulgence and I hope
you’ll join me and try it out!
Oh wait it is dairy free actually.

Pannenkoeken zijn
blijmakers.
Mijn moeder bakte ze
wanneer we iets goeds gedaan hebben toen we nog kinders waren. Dus elke keer dat
we pannenkoeken aten was het een echte traktatie en beloning voor ons.
Pannenkoekjes maken is ook
mijn eerste ervaring van koken in de keuken! Ik moest en zal de kunst van het
pannenkoeken bakken beheersen!
Maar het maken van pannenkoeken
is eigenlijk kinderspel, want het is eigenlijk gewoon de ingrediënten samen
mixen tot een glad mengsel zonder de ingrediënten tot op de puntjes af te
wegen vooraf.
Recept van vandaag is ook kinderspel
met een extra ingrediënt twist: kokosnoot!
Kokosnoot, kokosnoot,
kokosnoot en nog eens kokosnoot!
Tegenwoordig lijkt het erop
dat dé kokosnoot in vele fronten domineren, zoals in beauty producten,
voeding en gezondheid.
Ik heb kokosnoot toegevoegd
aan mijn pannenkoekjes omdat ik simpelweg zot ben op kokossmaak.
Dus mijn recept is niet
veganistisch vriendelijk, glutenvrij of zelfs calorie arm. Het is pure
verwennerij en ik hoop dat je het uitprobeert. Hij is wel lactose vrij
trouwens.

They look so good! My mum used to make pancakes for me when I was little too, so nostalgic <3
ReplyDeleteYum! I used to make pancakes with my brothers all the time. Just last week my brother randomly mentioned that we never make pancakes anymore. Maybe today I'll go get some ingredients and we can make some! I remember that there were a few times I used coconut oil, and the pancakes were so 香. idk why we didn't just use coconut oil every time :P -Audrey | Brunch at Audrey's

Thank you so much for this recipe! :D So excited to try this out.
ReplyDeleteAh yum! I love coconut. The nutella version especially sounds good!
ReplyDeleteoh yum I'm going to try adding cinnamon powder in my pancake that sounds like a good idea!
ReplyDeleteYum! The ingredients still seems healthier to me than what a "normal" pancake consists of, & looks mighty tasty too! That nutella version has me drooling. Haha.
ReplyDeleteOMG I WANT COCONUT PANCAKES! I'm not a stickler when it comes to how dense or fluffy or spongey my pancake has to be, as long as its cooked and edible and tasty I'm all good! I would love to have some of the plain coconut ones with fried banana slices! Oh that sounds good!
ReplyDeleteoh my gosh! looks amazingly delicious. i love pancakes too. they were alway a weekend thing for us and adding blueberries or chocolate chips were a special treat!
ReplyDeleteHmmm i was hoping you would use coconut flour, havent use that myself but am soooo curious <3
ReplyDeleteThis look so yummy!
ReplyDeleteOh my, those look very good!
