These pancakes are freaking MAGIC!
You hear me?! Magic!
Can’t you feel my enthusiasm for this recipe? It’s for good reason too.
These healthy little breakfast, or anytime cakes are currently giving me life!
They can work for nearly any special diet. They’re Paleo, gluten-free, grain free, egg free, dairy free, vegan, and most important yummy.
I’ve been going back and forth with eggs, and dairy but after a few incidents of skin inflammation I’m starting to see it’s not really worth all the trouble.
If you know anything about grain free baking you know that eggs are needed to give them structure. Well I’ve found a solution in Psyllium husk. I’ve been using Psyllium Husk in all my recent baked goods and they worked like a charm for these pancakes.
As far as dairy, I’m a huge fan of butter, milk, and cream in my baked goods and sweet treats, bu let me assure you they are not missed in this recipe.
The coconut milk, butter, and oil works all together to produce the nice sweet and creamy flavors I like so much.
Please leave any questions down in the comments!
Mix all dry ingredients.
Add the milk, water and vanilla to dry ingredients. Mix well.
Make a paste with 1 Tablespoon of both cinnamon and coconut oil.
Mix the paste into pancake batter.
On preheated and oiled skillet evenly spread batter out.
The longer you wait with the batter the more difficult it is to work with.
Cook on both sides for about 5 minutes or until cooked thoroughly.
For the Creamy Maple Syrup. Mix maple syrup, remaining coconut milk, vanilla and melted coconut butter.
Pour over pancakes with maple syrup depending on how sweet you like them.

These look yummy!!! I tried for so long to find a pancake recipe that was made with coconut flour but didn’t use eggs. I tried a lot of different subsitutes but they all failed. I’m so glad that you posted this. I’m about to stumble this. I’m sure there are a lot more people who would like it.

Thank you Sonya, coconut flour usually needs those eggs to stay together but the psyllium husk I used in this recipe made the difference!
These pancakes are spectacular!! Wow!

Maybe so, I just broke my waffle iron, (again :/ ) so I can’t check, but I will as soon as I get a new one! Thank You Patricia!
Woah…I am mega impressed with this recipe! I can’t can’t believe this is grain-free, egg-free, dairy-free. I’ve never heard of Psyllium Husk, but apparently I need to learn more about it. Thanks for sharing…these cinnamon rolls look amazing!

Psyllium husk has been a life saver when it comes to my sweet treats! Thank you David!
I have NEVER made pancakes from scratch. I have always wanted to. These look so good. And one comment up top said what I was thinking… these would be good as a waffle too! Thanks for introducing me to something new for my family!

They’re are really tasty and without the guilt! Thank you Tia!
Hi. I want to make these tonight, but I don’t have Psyllium husk on hand. Will flax seed meal work as a replacement? If not, any other ideas?
Thanks
Sorry I’m just getting back with you, flax seed meal will replace the husk as a binder but keep in mind it will change the flavor and texture a bit. It will be chewier with the flaxseed vs Psyllium husk. The Psyllium husk is really worth a try, it is amazing in cookies and cakes! Hope this helps and good luck Amy!
Great, thank you! I will get psyllium husk, just didn’t have it on hand.
You’re welcome Amy, and again good luck!
