Great recipe. Growing up, I loved cornmeal pancakes and never would have thought of putting coconut in them. Thank you for this idea! Two of my favorite things together :) I served them with agave nectar. Great breakfast!

Great recipe! I love the coconut flavor and the texture was great. Not to fluffy, not to dense. I ended up with 12 smallish (about 5 inch diameter) pancakes and froze some for future use. I just microwaved them to heat up which worked out great. Thanks for posting!
