Ingredients

Keto Pancakes:

  • cup almond flour
  • 3 Tbsp coconut flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 2 Tbsp sweetener (optional)
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 4 eggs
  • ¼ tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ cup almond milk or milk of choice (add a splash more if batter is too thick/dry!)
  • 3-4 Tbsp low carb chocolate chips (or blueberries, or mix-ins of choice)
  • butter or cooking spray, for cooking

Keto Friendly Topping Ideas:

  • sugar free maple syrup
  • drizzle of almond butter or nut/seed butter of choice
  • slivered almonds or chopped nuts
  • fresh berries
  • unsweetened coconut shreds or flakes
  • whatever you like!

Instructions

To make keto almond flour pancakes

  • In a large bowl, whisk together dry ingredients.
  • Separately, whisk together eggs, vanilla, and almond milk (or milk of choice).
  • Add dry mixture into wet mixture and stir to combine, without overmixing. (Add additional milk if batter is too thick or dry.)
  • Optional: Fold in low carb chocolate chips (or fresh blueberries, or mix-ins of choice).
  • Set batter aside to thicken 5-10 minutes as the flour absorbs the liquid.
  • Preheat a frying pan or griddle over medium heat. (See specific temperatures for griddle below.)
  • Melt butter or spray pan or griddle with cooking spray.
  • Use an ice cream scoop (or ¼ cup) to pour batter to create pancakes.
  • Cook for 2-3 minutes, then flip. (These won’t bubble like traditional grain-based pancakes, so don’t wait for them!) Cook another 1-2 minutes on the other side, until golden brown.
  • Serve with desired toppings and enjoy!
  • Yields 8 keto pancakes.

To cook on a griddle:

  • Turn heat on griddle to medium low (300°F or 150°C) while pancake batter rests. When ready to cook, turn heat up to medium-to-medium high (325-350°F or 165°C-175°C).
  • Water Test: Before cooking, drop a small amount of water on the griddle to see if the temperature is right. If the water sits still on the griddle, the temp is too low; if the water sizzles and evaporates immediately, it’s too hot; if water droplets sizzle but “dance” and move around, the temperature is perfect.
  • Follow cooking procedure described above.

Storage Instructions:

  • Store cooked and cooled pancakes in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
  • To freeze, lay cool pancakes flat on a baking sheet and freeze for 2-3 hours. Once firm, transfer to freezer-safe bags and freeze for up to 1 month.
  • To reheat, microwave for 1-2 minutes or reheat in a pan over medium heat on the stove, until warmed through.
