Make light, fluffy almond flour pancakes that are naturally gluten-free. This simple recipe delivers a satisfying, nutty breakfast without complicated steps.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups almond flour
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 tablespoon sweetener (optional, like erythritol or maple syrup)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon melted coconut oil or butter, plus more for the griddle

Instructions

  1. Combine the almond flour and baking powder in a medium bowl. Whisk them together well to remove any lumps.
  2. In a separate small bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and melted oil or butter. If you are using a sweetener, add it here.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix gently until just combined. Do not overmix; a few small lumps are fine.
  4. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or non-stick pan over medium heat. You want the pan hot enough that a drop of water sizzles immediately.
  5. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot griddle for each pancake.
  6. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set.
  7. Flip the pancakes carefully and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
  8. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings.

Notes

  • For extra fluffiness, let the batter rest for 5 minutes before cooking.
  • Serve with fresh berries, sugar-free syrup, or a dollop of whipped cream for a complete low-carb breakfast.
  • If you prefer a richer flavor, add 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon to the dry ingredients.
