Instructions
- Step 1: In a large bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 tsp baking powder, 2 tbsp sugar, and 1/4 tsp salt until combined.
- Step 2: In another bowl, beat 1 large egg with 1 1/4 cups milk, 3 tbsp melted unsalted butter, and 1 tsp vanilla extract. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and stir gently until just combined (batter should be lumpy).
- Step 3: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease with butter. Pour 1/4 cup batter per pancake and cook for 2-3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook an additional 2 minutes until golden.
- Step 4: For the raspberry sauce, combine 1 cup fresh raspberries, 2 tbsp powdered sugar, and 2 tbsp water in a small saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring often, for 5 minutes until raspberries break down and sauce thickens. Strain through a sieve to remove seeds.
- Step 5: Serve pancakes stacked, drizzled with warm raspberry sauce, topped with 1/2 cup whipped coconut cream and sprinkled with 1/2 cup toasted shredded coconut for a lamington-inspired brunch.
