Instructions
 

Prepare the Dates

  • Place pitted dates in a bowl. Pour hot water over them and let them sit for 15 minutes to soften. Finely chop half of the softened dates and puree the remaining half.

Make the Pancake Batter

  • In a large bowl, whisk together self-raising flour, all-purpose flour, coconut sugar, and cinnamon. In a separate bowl, combine milk, melted butter, and the whisked egg. Add the pureed and chopped dates to the wet ingredients. Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix.

Cook the Pancakes

  • Lightly grease two small non-stick frying pans with melted butter. Heat over medium heat. Pour 20ml of batter onto each pan for each pancake. Cook for about 2 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Keep cooked pancakes warm in a clean tea towel.

Make the Coconut Caramel Sauce

  • In a small saucepan, combine heavy cream, butter, and coconut sugar. Stir over low heat until butter is melted. Increase heat to medium-low and simmer for 10-12 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency, stirring frequently to prevent burning. Remove from heat and pour into a small serving pitcher.

Assemble and Serve

  • Serve the warm pancakes drizzled generously with the coconut caramel sauce. Enjoy!

Recipe Notes

Expert Tips for Perfect Date Pancakes:

  • For extra fluffy pancakes, let the batter rest for 15-20 minutes before cooking. This allows the gluten to relax.
  • Adjust the amount of coconut sugar in both the pancakes and the caramel sauce to your preference. You can also experiment with other sweeteners, such as maple syrup.
  • If your caramel sauce becomes too thick, add a tablespoon or two of milk or cream to thin it out.
  • Serve with fresh fruit, a dollop of whipped cream, or a sprinkle of chopped nuts for an extra decadent treat!
