Low Carb Keto Pancakes: A Delicious Twist for Your Breakfast


  • Author: Freya
  • Total Time: 25 minutes
  • Yield: 8 small pancakes (2 servings) 1x

Description

Fluffy, delicious, and easy to make, these low-carb keto pancakes are perfect for breakfast or brunch while staying keto-friendly!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 2 tbsp coconut flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 3 large eggs
  • 2 oz cream cheese, softened
  • ¼ cup unsweetened almond milk (or water)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 tbsp erythritol (or your favorite keto sweetener)
  • 2 tbsp butter or coconut oil for cooking

Instructions

  • Prepare the Batter:
    • In a medium bowl, whisk together almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, and salt.
    • In a separate bowl, beat eggs, softened cream cheese, almond milk, vanilla extract, and erythritol until smooth.
    • Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until a smooth batter forms. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes to thicken.
  • Cook the Pancakes:
    • Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium-low heat and grease it with butter or coconut oil.
    • Pour about 2-3 tablespoons of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Use the back of a spoon to spread the batter slightly if needed.
    • Cook for 2-3 minutes on one side, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Carefully flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
  • Serve:
    • Stack the pancakes on a plate and serve with your favorite keto toppings like sugar-free syrup, whipped cream, or fresh berries.

Notes

  • Resting Time: Letting the batter rest helps it thicken for fluffier pancakes.
  • Texture Adjustments: If the batter is too thick, add a tablespoon of almond milk at a time to reach your desired consistency.
  • Storage: Store leftover pancakes in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in a toaster or skillet.
  • Freezing Option: Freeze pancakes in a single layer and store in a freezer bag for up to 1 month. Reheat directly from frozen.
  • Keto-Friendly Toppings: Top with sugar-free syrup, nut butter, or a sprinkle of cinnamon for extra flavor.
