Coconut Flour Pancakes

This is a great recipe to have on occasion. These pancakes have the same consistency and texture of regular pancakes, but without the grain.

You can top them with fresh berries, whipped cream, cream cheese, butter or ricotta cheese. They can be layered with grated cheese to create cheesy "arepas". They also hold savory meats quite well, without falling apart.

Remember to eat them as part of your meal and not as a snack or an additional meal. You also don't want to use them as a replacement to a protein containing meal. Do not add sweeteners to them. They are not a dessert.
