Pancake Biscuits | Gorditas de Coco

1/24/2020 0 Comments
 
Picture
Step into the kitchen and create a heavenly puffy magical creation. These are called Gorditas de Nata, a Mexican street food found at carnivals, street fairs or other stands in Mexico. They look like huge puffy pancakes. They slice into them like you would a biscuit and slather on Nutella or other toppings. The direct translation for my variety today of Gorditas de Coco would be a Coconut Cream Biscuit. I liked Fat Pancake Biscuits but call them as you will. "Gordita" means fatty or chubby as is seen in the thickness of these magical cakes. â€‹

They are soft, have a distinct sweet scent. Traditionally they are made with nata the fat that rises to the top of the milk when boiled, others usually use clotted cream as a substitute, so since it is the fat that rises to the top I chose coconut cream. When you refrigerate a full fat can of coconut milk the fat rises to the top, so we will use that in this recipe and it works wonders.

When you make them you'll likely have eyes glancing your way to see how they're coming, or visitors to see if any need testing, they disappear quickly, this recipe is a half batch so feel free to double this bad boy. They are seriously so delicious, you have to try! Get the recipe below. â€‹

How to cook Fat Pancake Biscuits (Coconut Cream Biscuits)

Peaceful Preparaion
  1. Combine the vegan egg replacement and water together, mix well, set aside to congeal for 3-5 minutes. 
  2. Whisk the coconut cream in a medium size bowl until fluffy.
  3. Add the congealed vegan egg mixture and vanilla, mix well.
  4. Add the sweetener and mix.
  5. Sift in the dry ingredients and mix together until the spoon is very hard to work with. Lightly grease your hands and kneed the dough by hand until soft and supple. I did this in the same bowl, bakers choice.
  6. Cover the bowl with a lid, place it in the fridge for 30 minutes, up to overnight.
  7. Lightly flour a clean surface, roll / spread the dough until it is .4 inches or 1 cm thick. Cut with a cookie cutter or mason jar lid. Lightly flour each round, set aside.
  8. Heat a nonstick pan over the lowest possible heat. Once the pan is hot, add the pancake biscuits to the pan. Cook for 5 minutes. Flip. Cook for 5 minutes. Proceed to do this until they are fully cooked. Mine took a little while. The key is a low heat. Once puffy and cooked throughout, slice into them fill with a vegan nutella, caramel spread, jam, maple syrup, breakfast fillings, etc. Enjoy!!!
