In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, almond flour, baking powder, and sugar until well combined.
In a separate medium bowl, mix the almond milk, egg, vanilla extract, and almond extract together.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined, being careful not to overmix. Some lumps are okay.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly brush with vegetable oil.
Pour 1/4 cup of the pancake batter onto the skillet for each pancake.
Cook until bubbles form on the surface of the pancakes and the edges appear set, about 2 to 3 minutes.
Flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes until they are golden brown and cooked through.
Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more oil to the skillet as needed.
Serve the pancakes warm, topped with sliced almonds and your choice of syrup or fresh fruit if desired.
