  • Total Time: 30 mins
  • Yield: 4 1x

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • For compote:
  • 1 cup sliced rhubarb
  • 1 cup sliced strawberries
  • 1/2 cup pure maple syrup
  • 1/2 cup coconut sugar
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla bean paste (or 1 teaspoon vanilla extract)
  • For pancakes:
  • 1/2 cup coconut flour
  • 1/2 cup buckwheat flour
  • 1/4 cup coconut sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • 2 cups coconut milk
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 2 Tablespoons avocado or another flavorless oil, plus more for cooking

Instructions

  1. For compote – place all of the ingredients in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, then lower heat to a simmer and cook until thickened and syrupy. Remove from heat and keep warm until ready to serve.
  2. For pancakes – whisk dry ingredients together in a large mixing bowl.
  3. In another bowl, whisk coconut milk, eggs, and oil. Pour into the dry ingredients and mix well. Some lumps will remain.
  4. Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle. Add a little oil. Ladle 1/3 cupfuls of batter onto the skillet or griddle. Let cook for 2 minutes or so. They will be ready to flip when the bubbles start to pop and the edges look set.
  5. Place pancakes on a plate or in a warm oven until ready to serve.
  6. To serve – top pancakes with the compote.
  7. Yields: 8-10 six-inch pancakes and about 2 cups compote
