Easy Coconut Flour Flapjacks

adapted from Cooking with Coconut Flour by Bruce Fife, N.D.
2 eggs
2 T warm organic coconut oil or butter
2 T milk (coconut or goat milk also work well)
2 t sugar (honey also works)
2 T coconut flour
1/8 t salt
1/8 t baking soda

Note: A family of 4 should probably triple this recipe.


It's as simple as 1, 2, 3 . . .

1. Combine dry ingredients.


2. Then, add eggs, oil/butter and milk.




3. Ta da! (whoops-- be careful when pouring syrup!)



We paired these flapjacks with a green "Southern Hemipshere" smoothie for a wholesome start to our day. 


Feeling shy about investing in a bag of high-fiber coconut flour? Check your supermarket's bulk flour bins. Or ask a friend who eats gluten-free or paleo if they have a teeny bit to spare. If you decide to buy a bag, check out this healthy cooking blog for more delicious recipes featuring coconut flour (we can't get enough of her coconut flour banana bread).

Luckily, we had all the ingredients on hand and whipped these up after walking in the door from vacation. Since date sugar is a natural, raw food-- just finely chopped dried dates, it's a go-to for us over refined white sugar.

We like how rich and moist these pancakes are. They keep us feeling full for hours.

    Powered up! Now off to play!



These are my sister, Karyn's favorite pancakes. I can just imagine, her and her tiny towhead kiddos smiling, all the way in New Zealand, as they munch through stacks of these healthful flapjacks. Here we are at our neighborhood farm where our incredible eggs come from.
