Bacon pancakes recipe for breakfast
Servings: 4 pieces
Ingredients:
- 4 strips of bacon (best quality if you can make it health first).
- 1/4 cup coconut flour.
- 2 large eggs.
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil, melted.
- 2/3 cup unsweetened coconut or almond milk.
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda.
- Pinch of sea salt.
- Butter or ghee for organic cooking.
- Pure maple syrup to serve or any syrup or honey of your choice.
Instructions:
Coconut flour can be difficult to use and requires more moisture than other flours due to its dense and absorbent nature. Combining this flour with coconut oil and coconut milk helps create a thick, smooth batter – perfect for making pancakes and topping salty bacon strips.
- Start by cooking the bacon until crisp and set aside. Trim the ends of the bacon after cooking to fit the pancake shape. Make sure to save the ends for eating – you can crumble and sprinkle on top of your pancakes last, use them in another recipe, or eat them while cooking.
- Next, make the dough by whisking together the eggs, coconut milk, and coconut oil until very well combined. Add in the coconut flour, sea salt, and baking soda. The mixture should be slightly thick, but still slide a spoon or whisk.
- Heat a large griddle over medium / low heat and melt the butter or ghee on the surface. Use a ⅓-cup measuring spoon to grill the mixture in the form of strips, leaving enough space between them.
- Place a strip of bacon on each pancake and press gently to stick. Cover each one with another strip of batter over each slice of bacon to finish forming the complete pancake.
Note: The trick to cooking these pancakes with bacon is slow. Because they are denser than a standard pancake, they need to cook longer so they don’t fall apart when flipped. Heat that is too high will burn the bottom before the pancakes have cooked enough inside to be flipped; 4-5 minutes on each side does the trick.
Once the pancakes, pancakes or pancakes, as they are called on some sides, are golden in color on the top and bottom, they are ready to serve with pure maple syrup or any syrup or honey that you like.
