These pancakes are way easier than they look. It’s just my super simple pancake recipe with a little coconut kick! Drizzle the sweet coconut glaze and some toasted coconut and you are golden! I could eat these for every meal!

Cook Time
15 min
Ingredients
- 1 egg
- 1 1/2 cups milk
- 2 Tablespoons melted butter
- 1 1/3 cups flour
- 3 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 Tablespoon sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon coconut extract
- 1/4 cup shredded coconut
- Topping
- 1/4 cup toasted coconut
- 1 cup of powdered sugar
- 1-2 tablespoons of whole milk
- 1/2 teaspoon coconut extract
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla
Instructions
- Heat a cast iron griddle or pan on medium heat before you begin. Make sure it is nice and hot and then lower the temperature before you begin cooking the pancakes.
- Beat together the egg, milk, and melted butter. Whisk in the vanilla and coconut extracts and shredded coconut.
- Whisk the flour, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl. Slowly whisk in the egg and milk mixture. It's ok for the batter to be a little lumpy, be careful not to over mix. Let it sit for about five minutes. The batter will puff up, if it is too thick, add a little more milk.
- Grease the griddle. Spoon the batter in about a 1/4 cup portions on the griddle and let it cook for a few minutes per side.
- Keep the pancakes warm in a 200 F oven. Whisk the whole milk, powdered sugar, and vanilla and coconut extract together. Drizzle the glaze over the pancakes and top them with the toasted coconut.

I'm a country girl at heart. I tried living in the city and it just didn't work. Welcome to my ramblings as a teacher and wife. 
These look so delicious! Perfect for the summer!
