I love coconut pancake recipes because they actually taste like "real" pancakes and come without the stomach pains from gluten.

Coconut pancake recipes are also known to be lower in carbohydrates. 

And there are many good brands of coconut flour on the market these days to choose from to make your coconut pancake recipes.

Coconut Secret also makes a really good coconut syrup sweetener that is also a raw low glycemic sweetener.

Ingredients:

• 1/4 cup Unsalted Grass Fed Butter (melted)
• 1/4 cup Grass Fed Raw Heavy Cream (or Sour Cream)
• 1 Packet Organic Stevia or 1 Tbsp. Healthy Sweetener
  
• 1/4 tsp. Sea Salt
• 3 Large Pastured or Organic Eggs
• 1/2 tsp. Organic Vanilla Extract
• 1/4 cup Organic Coconut Flour
• 1/2 tsp. Gluten Free & Aluminum Free Baking Powder
• Filtered Water
  

Instructions:

1. Whisk butter, cream, sweetener, salt, eggs, and vanilla together in a bowl.
2. In another bowl, combine coconut flour and baking powder.  Mix dry ingredients with the wet.
3. Let the batter sit to thicken for a few minutes.  However, if batter is too thick - thin out with more cream or water.
   
4. Heat a slightly oiled skillet on medium heat.  Spoon heaping tablespoons of batter onto the skillet.
5. Flip pancakes when ready and finish cooking on other side before removing from pan.
   

You could also experiment with a little almond flour along with the coconut flour in your pancake recipes. 

Although, you may have to change other measurements as these two low carb flours work quite differently.

You can also make your own powdered or liquid stevia from dried stevia leaves for an alternative.

• 1/2 tsp. of Baking Soda

• Pinch of Sea Salt
• Optional:  2 Tbsp. of a Healthy Sweetener
• 4 heaping Tbsp. of Organic Sprouted Buckwheat Flour
• Healthy Cooking Oil

Instructions:

1. In a medium bowl, add the kefir or yogurt.  Then mix in the baking soda to activate the rising agent.
2. Stir in the cream or butter.  Then stir in the egg and salt.
3. Add sweetener if desired and lastly the buckwheat flour.  Stir until well combined.
4. Heat a pan on medium heat with a healthy oil and scoop large spoonfuls of pancake batter into the heated pan.
   
5.  Put a lid on the pan and cook for 2 minutes.  Remove lid and flip pancakes with spatula.  Put lid back on and cook for 1 more minute before removing.

I really like the nutrients found in buckwheat (very high in magnesium). 

However, sprouting buckwheat will be necessary to release the anti-nutrients that are found in buckwheat

Sprouting helps to make the nutrients in buckwheat more readily available and also helps with digestion. 

You could make your own sprouted buckwheat flour.  Or just buy organic sprouted buckwheat flour.

You could also ferment unsprouted buckwheat flour before using in your buckwheat pancake recipes.  Fermenting also gives you a healthier and more digestible buckwheat pancake.

Learn how to properly ferment buckwheat flour so that you can make this fermented buckwheat pancake recipe.
