1. Blend Ingredients
Start by combining the eggs, room temperature cream cheese, liquid stevia, baking powder, and coconut flour in a food processor or blender. Blend these ingredients thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and there are no lumps. This step ensures that your batter is well-mixed and will yield consistent pancakes or waffles.
2. Add Optional Ingredients
If you’re planning to add any optional ingredients like berries or chocolate chips, now is the time to mix them in gently by hand—this way, they won’t get too crushed in the blender.
3. Cook Pancakes
Next, melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the butter has melted and is evenly spread across the skillet, pour in the batter using ¼-cup portions to form three 4-inch pancakes. Let these cook for about 2 minutes. You’ll know they’re ready to flip when they look puffy and set without forming bubbles on the surface, which indicates they’re cooked through enough to handle flipping.
4. Flip Pancakes
Flip the pancakes carefully and cook for another minute until the bottoms are lightly browned. Remove them from the skillet and repeat the process with the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and the rest of the batter.
5. Cook Waffles (Optional)
If you prefer waffles, preheat your waffle iron and spray it with nonstick cooking spray. Pour the batter in and cook according to your waffle iron’s instructions until they’re golden and crisp.
6. Serve
Serve your pancakes or waffles hot, and enjoy the fluffy, creamy goodness.
Stir in cocoa powder and some chocolate chips for chocolate-flavored pancakes or waffles. Serve with whipped cream and a drizzle of chocolate sauce for an indulgent breakfast or dessert.
Add a scoop of your favorite protein powder to the batter to create a more satiating meal. Adjust the liquid as needed since protein powder can thicken the batter.
For a bit of indulgence, add a handful of mini chocolate chips to the batter. Dark chocolate chips can be particularly good with coconut.
Add fresh berries, mashed bananas, or apple pieces with cinnamon into the batter. You could also stir in some lemon zest for a citrusy punch.
Add the zest of one lemon, lime, or orange to the batter. Each will impart a fresh, zesty flavor that complements the coconut beautifully.
