Island Pineapple Pancakes Recipes

HAWAIIAN PINEAPPLE PANCAKES

Steps:

• Mix flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a bowl. Add coconut milk, eggs, and oil; stir to combine. Stir in pineapple and banana until just combined; do not overmix.
• Melt brown sugar and butter together in a saucepan over medium heat. Add pineapple tidbits and 1 tablespoon reserved pineapple juice. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until slightly thickened, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Preheat a griddle to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Pour 1/4-cup scoops of batter onto the hot griddle. Cook until bubbles form, about 3 minutes. Flip and cook until set, about 5 minutes more.
• Serve pancakes with the pineapple topping.

PINEAPPLE UPSIDE-DOWN PANCAKES WITH VANILLA CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat cream, sugar, and vanilla for sauce in a saucepan over medium-high heat until boiling. Reduce heat and simmer, stirring frequently, until thickened, 2 to 4 minutes. Remove from the heat and pour into a small pitcher for serving. Set aside at room temperature until ready to serve.
• Mix butter, cinnamon, and brown sugar together until well combined; set cinnamon butter aside.
• Stir pancake mix, milk, and eggs together until blended. Let sit for 5 minutes.
• Preheat a griddle to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Butter the surface, then working in batches as needed, ladle 1/2 cupfuls of batter for each pancake onto the hot griddle. Sprinkle a heaping tablespoon chopped pineapple on top of each one. Cook until the edges appear dry and the surface of the batter is no longer glossy, 2 to 4 minutes. Sprinkle a pinch or two of sugar onto each pineapple and flip. Cook until pancake is cooked through and pineapple is caramelized, another 2 to 4 minutes. Place pancakes on a plate in a warm oven and repeat the process to cook remaining pancakes.
• Serve pancakes with a dollop of cinnamon butter and vanilla creme sauce over top.

ISLAND PANCAKES

Steps:

• Drain pineapple and reserve liquid.
• In a large bowl, mix the oats, milk, oil, banana, eggs, and 1/2 cup of the reserved pineapple juice.
• Mix flour, baking powder and salt. Add to oat mixture. Beat well.
• In a small saucepan, blend the cornstarch and syrup until smooth. Stir in 1/2 cup reserved pineapple juice.
• Cook, stirring constantly, for 2-3 minutes until syrup begins to thicken. Stir in pineapple pieces and remove from heat.
• Heat griddle (when a drop of water dripped onto the griddle sizzles, it's ready). Spray lightly with cooking spray. Pour batter onto hot griddle, about 1/4 cup per pancake. Cook until batter bubbles and edges begin to look dry. Flip and cook until golden brown.
• Serve pancakes with warm pineapple sauce.

TROPICAL PARADISE PANCAKES

Steps:

• Whisk together the pancake mix and orange juice; the batter will be lumpy. Stir in the pineapple, banana, pecans, and coconut.
• Heat a lightly oiled griddle over medium-high heat. Drop batter by large spoonfuls onto the griddle, and cook until bubbles form and the edges are dry. Flip, and cook until browned on the other side. Repeat with remaining batter.
