Chef's Note

Coconut flour is extremely absorbent, so don't be alarmed by the high ratio of eggs to flour. This creates the perfect texture while boosting protein content. For even fluffier pancakes, you can separate the whole egg, whip the white separately until stiff peaks form, and fold it into the batter at the end.

Ingredients
  • 3 tablespoons coconut flour

  • 4 large egg whites

  • 1 large whole egg

  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk

  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder

  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 1 teaspoon stevia or monk fruit sweetener

  • 1/8 teaspoon salt

  • 3/4 cup mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)

  • 1/2 medium apple

  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

  • 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg

  • 2 tablespoons water

  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice

  • 1 teaspoon ghee

  • 2 tablespoons Greek yogurt (lactose-free)

Instructions
  • 1

    Begin by preparing the fruit compote. Dice 1/2 medium apple into small cubes and combine with 3/4 cup mixed berries in a small saucepan.

  • 2

    Add 2 tablespoons water, 1 teaspoon lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, and 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg to the fruit mixture. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium-low heat.

  • 3

    Cook the fruit compote for about 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally until the fruit softens and the mixture thickens slightly. Remove from heat and set aside.

  • 4

    In a medium bowl, whisk together 3 tablespoons coconut flour, 1/2 teaspoon baking powder, and 1/8 teaspoon salt until well combined.

  • 5

    In a separate bowl, whisk 4 large egg whites and 1 whole egg until frothy, about 1 minute.

  • 6

    Add 2 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk, 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1 teaspoon sweetener to the egg mixture and whisk to combine.

  • 7

    Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, whisking continuously to prevent lumps. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes to allow the coconut flour to absorb the liquid.

  • 8

    Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1 teaspoon ghee to coat the surface.

  • 9

    Pour about 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake into the skillet. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes.

  • 10

    Carefully flip each pancake and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown. Coconut flour pancakes are more delicate than traditional pancakes, so handle with care.

  • 11

    Serve the pancakes topped with the warm cinnamon-spiced fruit compote and 2 tablespoons of lactose-free Greek yogurt.
