Pineapple Pancakes with Coconut Syrup (Printable Version)

# What You'll Need:

→ Pancake Batter

01 - 1 1/2 cups crushed pineapple
02 - 1/4 cup granulated sugar
03 - 2 teaspoons baking powder
04 - 1 teaspoon baking soda
05 - 1/2 teaspoon salt
06 - 2 eggs
07 - 1/4 cup butter, melted

→ Coconut Syrup

09 - 1/2 cup butter
10 - 1 cup granulated sugar
11 - 1 cup coconut milk
12 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

# How to Make It:

01 - In a large mixing bowl, stir together crushed pineapple, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, eggs, and melted butter. Slowly add in flour until you have a nice batter. The consistency should be thin enough to spread slightly, without being runny.
02 - Heat a heavy flat nonstick griddle or skillet over medium-high heat. Pour batter in 1/4 cup scoops onto the hot surface. When bubbles start to form on top, flip and cook on the other side until lightly browned. Keep warm in a 200°C oven on a cookie sheet until serving.
03 - Melt butter in a medium-size saucepan over medium heat. Stir in sugar, coconut milk, and vanilla. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and simmer for 4 minutes. Store any leftover syrup in a heat-safe airtight container in the refrigerator.
04 - Serve pineapple pancakes warm with warm coconut syrup.

# Handy Tips:

01 - These pancakes bring tropical island flavors to your breakfast table. The pineapple adds natural sweetness and moisture to the pancakes.
02 - The coconut syrup can be made ahead and reheated when needed.
