Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1 tablespoon coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 2 scoops vanilla protein powder (paleo-friendly)
- 3 large eggs
- 0.5 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil for cooking
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, salt, and vanilla protein powder.
In another bowl, beat the eggs until they are light and frothy.
Add the unsweetened almond milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract to the beaten eggs, and mix well.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. The batter should be thick but pourable.
Heat a large non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add the coconut oil. Allow it to melt and coat the surface evenly.
Use a 1/4 cup measuring cup to pour the batter onto the skillet, forming pancakes. Cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set.
Carefully flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.
Transfer the pancakes to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter, adding more coconut oil as needed.
Serve warm with your choice of paleo-friendly toppings such as fresh berries or additional maple syrup.
