Coconut and cashew oaty pancakes

These coconut and cashew oaty pancakes are not only perfect for breakfast but also for snacking during the day. They have no added sugar, and I used sugar-free desiccated coconut , but feel free to add some maple syrup or coconut sugar to the batter (but be careful when you fry them, as they burn easily ). Serve the pancakes with your favourite syrup or crème fraîche mixed with honey, custard  or fruit compote.

Method
 

  1. Put everything in a blender, except the desiccated coconut, then blend until you get a thick but pourable batter.
  2. Add more coconut milk if it’s too thick or more oats, if it’s too runny.

  5. When hot, add dollops of the batter, letting each spread out into a circle.
