Instructions
 

  • BEFORE YOU START: if you plan to make the coconut whipped cream, you will need to refrigerate the can of coconut milk overnight. This gives the hard portion of the milk time to harden more.
    1 14 oz can full fat coconut milk

For the rainbow pancake batter:

  • In a large mixing bowl, sift together the dry ingredients.
    3 cups white wheat flour, 7 teaspoon baking powder, 2 teaspoon pink sea salt, 2 tablespoon raw cane sugar
  • Form a well in the center of the dry ingredients.
    Add the wet ingredients.
    Whisk together until the batter is smooth and lump free.
    Make sure there are no chunks of flour because this can easily get stuck in the squeeze bottle and clog it.
    2 ½ cups milk of choice, 2 lg eggs, 6 tablespoon avocado oil
  • Let the batter sit for ~5 minutes for the baking powder to activate.
