Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1/4 cup Coconut Flour
- 1/2 tsp Baking Soda
- 1 scoop Collagen
- 1 tbsp Cold Milled Organic Flaxseed
- Dash of Pink Himalayan Sea Salt
- Dash of Cinnamon
Wet Ingredients
- 3 Eggs
- 1/4 cup Nut Milk of Choice
- 1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract
- 2 tbsp Unrefined Cold Pressed Coconut Oil (plus extra for cooking)
Toppings
- Shredded Coconut Flakes
- Cacao Nibs
- Almond Butter
Instructions
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine coconut flour, baking soda, collagen, cold milled organic flaxseed, pink Himalayan sea salt, and cinnamon. Whisk these dry ingredients together to ensure an even distribution.
- Add Wet Ingredients: Before adding the coconut oil, mix in the eggs, nut milk, and vanilla extract with the dry ingredients. Stir gently to combine. It’s okay if the batter is slightly lumpy; avoid over mixing to keep the pancakes light.
- Heat Skillet: Warm a skillet over medium heat and add a spoonful of unrefined cold pressed coconut oil to coat the surface.
- Cook Pancakes: Spoon the batter onto the heated skillet. Since the batter will be somewhat doughy, use a fork to spread it into a circular shape.
- Watch for Bubbles: Cook on medium to high heat until you notice small air bubbles forming on the surface of the pancakes, indicating they are ready to flip.
- Flip and Finish Cooking: Carefully flip the pancakes and cook the other side until golden and cooked through. This recipe yields approximately 8-10 pancakes, depending on size.
- Add Toppings and Serve: Remove pancakes from skillet and top with shredded coconut flakes, cacao nibs, and almond butter as desired. Serve warm and enjoy!

- Do not overmix the batter; slight lumps are fine and help with fluffiness.
