Coconut oil

Instructions
Peel plantains and add them to a high-speed blender with eggs, coconut oil, vanilla extract, baking soda, and salt, and blend until smooth.
Heat griddle or cast iron pan to medium-high heat and add coconut oil to the pan. Using a 1/4 cup measure, ladle out the batter into the pan to make pancakes even in size.
Allow pancakes to cook for 3-5 minutes on the first side. When pancakes have a few bubbles and appear dry on top, flip and cook an additional 1-2 minutes.
Repeat until you finish the batter. Garnish with your favorite fruits and nuts.
