Ingredients
  

1/2 cup coconut flour

4 large eggs

1 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)

1 tablespoon maple syrup or honey

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 teaspoon salt

2 tablespoons coconut oil or butter (for cooking)

Optional toppings: Fresh fruit, nut butter, coconut flakes, or yogurt

Instructions
 

Mix the Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the eggs, milk, maple syrup (or honey), and vanilla extract. Whisk together until well combined.

    Combine Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, mix the coconut flour, baking powder, and salt together. Make sure there are no lumps.

      Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients. Stir until everything is well blended. The batter will be thick due to the coconut flour's absorbent nature.

        Heat the Pan: Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add a tablespoon of coconut oil or butter to grease the surface.

          Cook the Pancakes: Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook for 2-3 minutes until bubbles start to form on the surface and the edges look set.

            Flip: Carefully flip the pancake using a spatula and cook for another 2-3 minutes, until golden brown and cooked through.

              Repeat: Remove the pancakes from the skillet and repeat with the remaining batter, adding more oil or butter to the skillet as needed.

                Serve: Stack the pancakes on a plate and top them with your favorite toppings like fresh fruit, nut butter, coconut flakes, or yogurt. Enjoy your gluten-free breakfast delight!
