# Thai Coconut-Rice Pancakes Trader Joe's New Kanom Krok Thai Coconut Pancakes Have Landed By Katherine Pendrill | Published 2024-01-21 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kanom-krok-thai-coconut-pancakes References: [instagram](https://www.instagram.com/bigboxvegan/p/C2K-fWAJDtj/?img_index=1) & [reddit](https://www.reddit.com/r/traderjoes/comments/197r189/new_items_kanom_krok_thai_coconut_pancakes_329/)  Thai coconut-rice pancakes, known as kanom krok in Thai, are one of the most popular Thai street food and now you can get them at your local [Trader Joe's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/thai-banana-fritters) in the form of the brand's own Kanom Krok Thai Coconut Pancakes. If you've been to Thailand, you've likely spotted kanom krok and their dome-shaped profile. Trader Joe's has now managed to recreate the classic street food by working with a supplier in Thailand who uses a batter of coconut milk, rice flour, cane and coconut sugars, tapioca starch, rice bran oil, and sea salt to make the bite-sized pancakes. Shredded young coconut and taro root are also baked in to give the pancakes a little extra texture. All you need to do to enjoy the pancakes at home is heat them up in a microwave or air fryer and you're good to go.
