  • 2 Eggs
  • 1/2 cup Almond Milk (unsweetened)
  • 2 tbsp Melted Butter or Coconut Oil

Mixing the Batter

In a large bowl, whisk together the almond flour, baking powder, sweetener, and cinnamon (if using). Make sure there are no clumps of almond flour.

Adding Wet Ingredients

In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, almond milk, melted butter (or coconut oil), and vanilla extract. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

Cooking the Pancakes

FAQ

  • Can I use coconut flour instead of almond flour?

    No, coconut flour absorbs much more liquid than almond flour. Using coconut flour will require a significantly different recipe.
  • Can I freeze these pancakes?

    Yes, you can freeze these pancakes. Allow them to cool completely, then place them in a freezer-safe bag or container with parchment paper between layers to prevent sticking. Reheat in a toaster or microwave.
  • What can I use as a substitute for eggs?

    A flax egg (1 tbsp ground flaxseed mixed with 3 tbsp water, let sit for 5 minutes) can be used as an egg substitute, but it may slightly alter the texture.
