GLUTEN-FREE CHOCOLATE COCONUTBUCKWHEAT PANCAKES
This is a nutrient packed alternative to traditional pancakes. The Yoso yogurt adds healthy bacteria
and also helps to hold the mixture together without having to add any extra starches or emulsifiers.
Makes 8 pancakes.
1. Dry: In a bowl, whisk together 3 flours, gluten free baking
powder, cinnamon and salt until well combined. Set aside.
2. Wet: In a blender, combine coconut milk, coconut oil,
banana, agave & vanilla at highest speed until smooth. Add
coconut milk yogurt & blend at low speed until all ingredients
are incorporated.
3. Add wet ingredients to the dry mixture and using a whisk
mix well until there are no lumps remaining.
4. To serve: Preheat a medium size sauté pan on medium
high heat & coat with 2-3 tbsp of coconut oil. Once hot, drop
¼ cup of mixture onto pan, cook on 1st side for 4-5 minutes
or until golden brown on all edges. Flip and continue to cook
for an additional 2 to 3 minutes on the other side or until
cooked through. Serve immediately.
Variation for Lemon Vanilla Coconut Pancakes
Substitute equal amount of Yoso Coconut Vanilla Yogurt for chocolate & add 2 tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice to the wet ingredients.
Tips: Coconut flour can be found in most health food stores, you can substitute with ¼ cup brown rice flour + 1 tbsp arrowroot starch.
To make the coconut milk for this recipe, soak ¼ cup of shredded coconut in 1 cup warm water for 30 minutes. Blend on high for 30 seconds,

Tips: Tandoori seasoning is a mixture of various spices. If you do not have any, substitute by mixing together 1 tbsp sweet paprika, 1 tsp
ground coriander, 1 tsp ground cumin, 1 tsp ground ginger, 1 tsp coconut sugar, ½ tsp ground cinnamon, ½ tsp fine sea salt, 1/4 tsp cayenne
pepper and a Pinch of ground saffron threads. Use this mixture as you would in step 1 above. If the head of cauliflower is small, use 2.
TANDOORI BLACKENEDCOCONUT YOGURT CAULIFLOWER
Variation for Coconut Curry Cauliflower
Substitute the tandoori seasoning with 2 tbsp curry powder, ½ tsp ground cumin and ½ tsp chili powder.
One of my favorite ways to use Yoso unsweetened coconut yogurt is to create this Indian side dish,
traditionally made with dairy. The trick is to ensure the cauliflower is evenly coated in the seasoning
and yogurt. This recipe can be easily doubled or tripled to suit your needs.
Makes 4 side portions.
Ingredients
1 cup Yoso UnSweetened Coconut Yogurt
2 tbsp + 1 tsp Tandoori Seasoning (tips below)
1 tbsp freshly squeezed lime juice
¼ tsp fine sea salt
1 medium sized head of cauliflower, cut into 2-inch pieces
1. Pre-heat oven to 450°F. Line a baking sheet with
parchment paper.
2. In a bowl, whisk together coconut yogurt, tandoori
seasoning, lime juice and salt until well combined. Add
cauliflower florets and toss to coat well.
3. On prepared baking sheet, place cauliflower and cook in
pre-heated oven for 12 to 15 minutes or until slightly
darkened on the outside and cooked in the middle. Serve
immediately or, allow to cool and transfer to an airtight
container. Store refrigerated for up to 5 days.
