Coconut Pancakes

It's February - love is in the air. ❤️  And it's time to start thinking about Valentine's Day. (hint, hint😉) The day when we shower our loved ones with gifts of sweet treats and beautiful bouquets.💐  Unless you happen to be married to me. 🤣

​Here's the thing - I like fresh cut flowers but... I LOVE houseplants and potted plants that I can put in my yard - even more.  I try and avoid large crowds which means that I don't love going out to dinner on Valentine's Day either.  And even though I have a raging sweet tooth, I'm usually trying to limit sugary treats in the house so I'm not tempted to overindulge. 😬 I just realized what a terrible Valentine I am. 😅😂

Lucky for me, my better half is far less picky about Valentine gifts, than I am.😅  He's also a lot less picky about the foods that he eats, which makes him easy to cook for.  There's actually a very short list of foods that he won't eat.  A trait that works to my benefit because he's the official taste tester for my food blog.  😂
 
To make up for the countless unsuccessful (and downright questionable) recipe attempts that I've served my better half for testing purposes, I try and make things that I know that he will like, from time to time.😅  Coconut pancakes is one of the recipes that I created with my taste tester in mind.  He loves coconut - he loves pancakes - he loves breakfast food. ❤️

Did you catch that action shot of the syrup being poured over the pancakes?  My taste tester has also perfected his "slow pour" so I can get those amazing pictures of the moment that the syrup drips over the edge of the pancake stack.  😘
