Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 2 tablespoons Ground flaxseed
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 3 units Large eggs
- 0.25 cup Unsweetened almond milk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil (or avocado oil) for cooking
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, ground flaxseed, baking powder, and salt. Stir well to ensure even distribution of dry ingredients.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, almond milk, and vanilla extract until fully combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until a smooth batter forms.
Let the batter sit for a few minutes to allow the flaxseed to absorb some moisture, thickening the batter slightly.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add a small amount of olive oil or avocado oil.
Pour 1/4 cup of the batter onto the skillet for each pancake, spreading gently to form a circle about 3-4 inches in diameter.
Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes on one side until bubbles begin to form on the surface and the edges look set.
Carefully flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
Remove the pancakes from the skillet and repeat with the remaining batter, adding more oil to the skillet as needed.
Serve warm with your choice of keto-friendly toppings, such as fresh berries, sugar-free syrup, or a dollop of Greek yogurt.
