Almond Coconut Pikelets

Written by Grain Free Living

Contains no sugar, dairy (if you use soy or other non dairy milk) or gluten. Grain Free. Very high protein content means even though they are really light and fluffy, they will fill you up!!!

Ingredients:

 

¼-½ cup Almond Meal

¼ cup desiccated Coconut

¼ cup Potato Starch/Flour

1 tsp bicarbonate soda (baking soda)

½ tsp cream of tarter

pinch salt

1 egg

buttermilk OR soy milk (if using soy milk or other milk add 1 tsp of vinegar to the mixture at the end)

Pinch of salt (preferably celtic sea salt)

 

Method:

 

Add dry ingredients and mix well. (Can sift potato starch, cream or tarter and bicarb if you like – I am usually in too much of a hurry J so I just use a whisk to blend the dry ingredients together.)

 

Make a well and add egg, oil and enough buttermilk or milk to make mixture desired consistency. Mix well. Use less liquid for pikelets and more for crepes. Add splash of vinegar if not using buttermilk – it helps makes the crepes super-fluffy.

 

Pre-heat non stick pan (add a little oil or butter if desired).

 

Add tablespoons of mixture and cook until bubbles appear, flip and cook other side

 

Serve with condiments of choice (butter, cream or Nuttlex (dairy free margarine), with 100% Jam (no sugar added), Maple Syrup, Honey)

General Recipe Notes

All recipes measurements are in METRIC. If you wish to convert to imperial please use the convertor tool supplied on each recipe page and use the same (either all metric or all imperial) for the whole recipe.

Some points for American readers on metric measurements are:

1 cup is 250ml which is slightly larger than the imperial 1 cup of an 8 oz measure.  1 tblspoon is 20 ml which again is slightly larger than the imperial tablespoon measure of 15ml.  In most recipes this should not make too much of a difference, especially if you exchange all metric for all imperial.  Cookie recipes need accuracy however so if your cookies are not turning out (either too soft or spreading too much) the problem will most likely be the measures.

Nearly all recipes are cooked in a moderate 180°C oven, which is 350 °F / Gas 4.
