These Crunchy Tapioca Netty Pancakes are crafted using tapioca flour and buckwheat flour blended with coconut milk. Tapioca, a gluten-free starch extracted from the cassava or yucca plant, serves as a rapid carbohydrate source and is a staple in tropical regions worldwide.

These manioc (tapioca) flour-based crepes or pancakes are popular street snacks in Brazil. Made to order, they come with an array of sweet and savory fillings such as cheese, coconut, or chocolate. With this simple recipe, you can easily create them at home.

Manioc starch is traditionally soaked in water overnight, then thoroughly drained the next day, leaving a stiff paste that is crushed and sifted into a snow-like powder. When sprinkled over a heated skillet, it quickly melds to form a crepe. For these crunchy netty pancakes, we use a unique conical dispenser or a squeeze bottle to create beautiful patterns on the hot pan. As the batter cooks and solidifies, flip it with a spatula or toss it carefully from the skillet for a delightful breakfast experience.

Nutritional Benefits: Tapioca provides quick-absorbing carbohydrates and is naturally gluten-free, while buckwheat flour adds protein, fiber, and essential amino acids. Coconut milk contributes healthy medium-chain fatty acids that support metabolism and provide sustained energy.
