If you’re on a keto diet, almond flour will be your top choice for baking because it’s low in carbohydrates, high in fat, moderate in protein, and has great flavor and texture. Almond flour is a popular alternative to traditional wheat flour. It’s packed with nutrients and has a slightly sweeter taste. Further, almond flour may also provide more health benefits than traditional wheat flour.
Almond Flour Pancakes
These low-carb pancakes made from almond flour are delicious for breakfast or lunch. With this recipe, it’s possible to make about 10 small almond flour pancakes, whereby one portion equals two pancakes. Additionally, almond flour provides a satiated feeling, which means you are really full after eating a portion of these pancakes.
The pancakes can be taken both cold and warm. I often prefer to take them chilled for lunch to work.
- 2 large eggs
- 125 ml almond milk
- 2 tbsp coconut oil or olive oil
- 1 tbsp 1 tsp vanilla aroma
- 100 gr almond flour
- 2 tbsp erythritol
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- Pinch of salt
Add the eggs, almond milk, vanilla flavoring, and coconut oil to a large blender. Run the blender for about 30 seconds to mix everything. Then add the almond flour, baking powder, erythritol, and salt to the blender and blend for another 30 seconds. After mixing, let the batter rest for 5 minutes.
Then take a large frying pan and heat a tablespoon of butter or oil in it. Spoon three tablespoons of the batter into the pan and fry the pancake until bubbles form on the surface of the pancake, about 2-3 minutes. Then flip the pancake and cook for another 2-3 minutes. Repeat this step until you have baked 10 pancakes. Enjoy your meal!
