In South Africa we call these flapjacks. In the States they are called pancakes. Whatever you call them they are truly delicious. We had them for lunch yesterday and they were a hit.

Coconut Pancakes with Strawberry Jam and Cream

Ingredients:

4 eggs

1/4 cup coconut flour

1/2 tsp cinnamon

1 Tbs xylitol

1/4 cup yogurt or cream (I used cream and added more coconut flour)

1/2 tsp baking powder

Beat eggs and cream or yogurt together then add all the other ingredients. Let it sit for a little while and make the strawberry jam. If the pancake mix seems too runny, add a little coconut flour.

Strawberry Jam

1 punnet of strawberries

2 Tbs xylitol (or to taste)

1/2 cup of water

Cut up the strawberries and put all ingredients in a saucepan and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes. Check the water level and add a little if needed. Break up the strawberries and simmer a little longer until you get a good jam-like consistency. Let it cool down a little.

Heat a little coconut oil in a pan and drop pancake mixture by the dessert spoonful into pan. When underside is done, flip and cook the other side. Spread with jam and serve with cream.
