Equipment

  • large bowl
  • Large skillet or griddle
  • medium saucepan

Ingredients
  

Coconut Topping

  • 2 cups Sweetened Flaked Coconut

Pancakes

  • 4 cups Flour
  • 1.5 Tablespoons Baking Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.5 cup Butter melted plus extra for cooking
  • 0.25 cup Sugar
  • 3 units Eggs
  • 3 cups Buttermilk
  • 2 teaspoons Vanilla

Toppings

  • 0.5 cup Macadamia Nuts chopped
  • Sliced Bananas

Coconut Syrup

  • 1 14 ounce Can Coconut Milk not lite
  • 0.5 cup Sugar
  • 2 Tablespoons Light Karo Syrup
  • 1 pinch Salt

Instructions
 

Toasting Coconut

  • Preheat oven to 250 degrees. Spread coconut on large baking sheet and toast for about 18-20 minutes or until golden. Alternatively, you can use the broil setting to toast it for 1-2 minutes, watching carefully to prevent burning.

Making Pancakes

  • In a large bowl, stir together flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir in melted butter, sugar, eggs, buttermilk, and vanilla.
  • Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium-low heat. Test for readiness by sprinkling some water on the pan; if it spatters, the skillet is hot enough. Coat with butter or non-stick spray.
  • Using a ½ cup, pour pancake batter onto the skillet. Generously sprinkle with toasted coconut. Flip when bubbles appear. Cook carefully to ensure they brown evenly.
  • Serve warm with toppings.

Making Coconut Syrup

  • In a medium saucepan, combine coconut milk, sugar, and karo syrup. Whisk together and cook over medium heat for 8-10 minutes until it starts to simmer. Once it thickens, remove from heat.

Serving

  • Top pancakes with sliced bananas, coconut syrup, macadamia nuts, and remaining toasted coconut.
