For a richer flavor, try browning the coconut oil slightly before pouring the batter onto the griddle. If you don't have nutmeg, a pinch of allspice or cloves can be used as a substitute. The ripeness of the ulu greatly affects the sweetness of the pancakes. If your ulu isn't very sweet, consider adding a tablespoon of honey or sugar to the batter.
