Coconut and Purple Potatoes Pancakes

This is also one of my recipe that I created. Your dad doesn't like plain pancake so I try different type of fruits and nuts, sweet potatoes, purple potatoes-that's he likes, even with peanut butter. Since our family like to eat coconut so I decided to add in coconut flake  into pancake mixture for quick and easy. It looks like one of Thai dessert, except different taste to the flour.
Start with 1 cup of milk or coconut milk
 some brown sugar (maybe 3-4 Tbsp) or honey
 Whisk it together and taste to see if it will have some of the sweet as you like. This type of pancake does serve with syrup. It is a pick and go pancake. 
After you got the sweetness that you desire, then into that add in 1 egg and whisk till blend in. *Do not taste you milk liquid after you add in raw egg. Don't recommended eating raw egg this day.  Then start with 1/2 cup pancake flour mixture first and stir, into that add in coconut flake, mix it well. If too liquid slowly add more pancake mixture to ticker it up as in the picture. * Optional, can add a drop of Jasmine flower extract or vanilla. Don't be afraid to make any experiment in your pancake mixture as you like, such as you can add in nut mate, cinnamon, banana, steam pumpkin, steam sweet potatoes, steam taro root or different fruits jam or jelly as you like.....This will enhanced and created your pancake with more nutritional benefit instead of just plain flour that only had just carbohydrate and as you know that carbohydrate break down into sugar and sugar goes straight down to your billy....Try to use less sugar, too sweet is bad for your health..with my concern...from me to you. I hope for all of you to have better health. If we don't take care of ourselves then who well???  




I fry my with a dash of coconut oil
My coconut pancake, it is softer texture. 

This is Ka Num Bar Binn similar to my coconut pancake, but it is much more tastier and the texture from the sticky rice flour give more sticky taste and crunchier because it's bake.

I leave you with this recipe also, just incase that you would like to try to do some experiment...
Ka Num Ba Binn
1/2 cup sticky rice flour
1/2 cup of scraped coconut flake from flesh coconut 
1 cup of coconut milk
start with 1/2 cup of brown sugar first or organic sugar
1/2 cup starch or แป้งท้าวยายม่อม
1 egg
1 tsp. Jasmine extract 
Direction
Mix together sticky rice flour, starch and flesh coconut flake, sugar and coconut milk together until the coconut mix it well. Tasted to see if it sweet enough for you before add in egg. **I don't care for too sweet, so I slowly add sugar little at a time. 
Place the flour mixture into pot and cook on low heat, vocationally stir until the flour cooked and thicken, but not cover cook 
grease baking pan, pour mixture into the pan and bake in 375 degree F for 20-25 min, or till golden brown


     Another of our favorite is the purple potatoes pancake with coconut. Same menu as coconut pancake except less pancake flour to have more of potatoes taste to it.  Steam purple potatoes and smash it or use a mixture. Don't need to be all smash, leave some chunk, than add in milk, brown sugar, egg and coconut flake if desired...etc...

Health Benefit of purple potatoes;
