Good day Margaret
Thank you so much for your feedback. Yes, unfortunately with the different types of coconut flour + coconut oils you get out there the recipe will not work if you have certain brands of the product.
For this reason, I have decided to amend the recipe to take out or reduce these ingredients to make sure that the flapjacks work for everyone. Please see below:
Ingredients (makes 8-10 medium):
1/4 cup of coconut flour
1/4 cup of almond flour
1 tsp of baking powder
1/4 tsp of sea salt
1/4 cup of olive oil
1.5 tsp of xylitol
3 eggs
1/2 cup of coconut milk
1 tsp of vanilla extract
1 T of olive oil for cooking
Method (makes 8-10 medium):
1. Heat a frying pan to medium to high heat and olive oil.
2. Mix all of the dry ingredients together (coconut flour, almond flour, baking powder, salt and xylitol).
3. Mix all of the wet ingredients together (olive oil, eggs, coconut milk and vanilla extract).
4. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix thoroughly until a smooth mixture.
5. Pour spoons full of the mixture in the pan and cook until there are bubbles that start to form on the flapjack, flip over and cook the other side.
I hope this helps!

These pancakes did not work. Followed the recipe exactly adding extra milk as suggested. They were quite unsuccessful.

Good day Mike
It really depends on the brand of coconut flour and coconut oil being used in the recipe. Sometimes they are more dry than other brands.
I would suggest that you either use more milk (to get a smooth consistency) or substitute the coconut oil for olive oil.

My mixture came out extremely dry. There is roughly 1/2 a cup of moisture to 1 cup of coconut flour. It’s just not right!! Didn’t work at all.

Recipe worked perfect for me. Didnt have coconut milk so used Almond milk instead – but followed it to the tee and it was perfect!
