Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour

1 tablespoon baking powder

1 tablespoon granulated sugar

½ teaspoon salt

1 cup coconut milk (canned or carton)

1 large egg

½ cup ripe mango, chopped into small pieces

¼ cup shredded coconut (unsweetened)

2 tablespoons melted butter (plus extra for cooking)

Maple syrup or honey (for serving)

Extra mango slices and toasted coconut (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Mix Dry Ingredients – In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Stir well to combine.
  2. Step 2: Beat Wet Ingredients – In a separate bowl, whisk together the coconut milk, egg, and melted butter until smooth and well combined.
  3. Step 3: Combine Mixtures – Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps in the batter are perfectly fine!
  4. Step 4: Add Mango and Coconut – Fold in the chopped mango and shredded coconut, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
  5. Step 5: Heat the Pan – Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add a small amount of butter to coat the surface.
  6. Step 6: Cook the Pancakes – Pour about ¼ cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook for about 2-3 minutes, until bubbles form on the surface and the edges start to look set.
  7. Step 7: Flip – Carefully flip the pancakes using a spatula and cook for another 2-3 minutes, until the pancakes are golden brown on both sides.
  8. Step 8: Keep Warm – Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate and cover them to keep warm while you cook the remaining batter.
  9. Step 9: Serve Hot – Stack the pancakes on serving plates and drizzle with maple syrup or honey.
  10. Step 10: Garnish – Top with extra mango slices and a sprinkle of toasted coconut for the finishing touch.

Notes

For extra protein, add chopped macadamia nuts or almonds for a little crunch.

For a vegan version, use a flax egg and plant-based butter in place of the egg and melted butter.

Add pineapple chunks to the batter for an even more tropical flavor.

For a sweeter flavor, stir in a tablespoon of brown sugar or add vanilla extract.
