Coconut & Yoghurt Pancakes

An easy gluten free recipe for Coconut & Yoghurt Pancakes (or crumpets), made with coconut flour, corn flour, vanilla, eggs and Danone Nutriday Double Cream Plain Yoghurt. Gluten Free flours love moisture, and the double thick yoghurt ensures that the pancakes stay bouncy and moist, while the yoghurt and fruit on top finish this pancake stack off beautifully.
