BANANA AND COCONUT PANCAKES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Spread the shredded coconut on an oven tray and toast it in oven for 10 minutes or until it is dark golden, shaking the tray occasionally.
• Remove the coconut from the tray to prevent it from burning and set aside.
• Sift both flours into a medium bowl.
• Add the sugar and desiccated coconut and mix through with a spoon.
• Put the beaten egg and coconut milk together in small bowl.
• Make a well in the center of the flour, pour in the combined egg and coconut milk, and beat until smooth.
• Add in the three tablespoons of melted butter.
• Melt a little extra butter in a large non-stick frying pan-if you have a crepe pan use that.
• Pour 3 tablespoons of the pancake mixture into the pan and cook over medium heat until the underside is golden.
• Turn the pancake over and cook the other side.
• Transfer to a plate and cover with a tea towel to keep warm.
• Repeat with the remaining pancake batter, buttering the pan when necessary.
• Cut the bananas diagonally into thick slices.
• Heat the butter in the pan; add the banana, toss until coated, and cook over medium heat until the banana starts to soften and brown.
• Sprinkle with the brown sugar and shake the pan gently until the sugar has melted.
• Stir in the lime juice.
• Divide the banana among the pancakes and fold over to enclose.
• Sprinkle with the toasted coconut and strips of lime rind.
