Yes, you can freeze and reheat these.
If I want pancakes, I have to use the ingredients that make pancakes. If I use completely different ingredients, I get some other food that is not pancakes. It might be tasty, (and it probably has a better chance of being tasty if I am not anticipating pancakes) but it will not be pancakes.
I guess what I'm saying is, it works better for me if I call these "fried coconut egg patties" , and make them part of the radical change in my diet, which no longer includes foods dependent on grain flour for their taste and texture.
I was just thinking of the roots of the word *pancake*: pan cake, a cake made in a pan. So these are indeed little Coconut Pan-Cakes.
Happy keto eating!

Love the idea above to add cinnamon and vanilla. Shredded coconut would also be yum. We've added them to our favourites list!

So glad you love the recipe! Just a heads up that the Lakanto maple syrup has some ingredients that we recommend avoiding, such as tapioca, chicory root, and potato starch. Here's our Ingredients to Avoid list that should be helpful for you! https://www.dietdoctor.com/low-carb/ingredients-to-avoid
