Coconut Flour Pancakes

Today I had some leftover Kaboto squash (similar to acorn squash) and wanted to make a yummy treat for us.  I saw the coconut flour pancake recipe on Food Renegade and decided to try it.  They were fantastic!  We added some fresh blackberries (Costco) and some homemade coconut milk and had a delicious, very healthy snack.  My son Josh did the photography work, while his impatient siblings waited to eat!

Ingredients:


4 eggs
1/4 cup applesauce or squash puree (just well mashed)
1/4 cup coconut flour
pinch of salt

Beat eggs with salt then add in squash, beat again and then add in coconut flour.  Beat it well and let it sit for 5-10 minutes while you preheat your gridle or pan to medium.  The coconut flour needs to absorb the liquid.
Put coconut oil or ghee or some animal fat in your pan.  Let the fat melt and fry them until they are browned about 4-5 minutes on each side.

They were very bread-like and delicious.  I am sure that with the applesauce they would be sweeter.  The other nice thing about them is that I poured coconut milk on mine and then it sat for a bit.  I imagined that they would be soggy, but they were not at all.
