Make light and fluffy pancakes using coconut flour that fit Keto, Gluten-Free, and Paleo diets. This recipe yields tender, golden stacks without grains or sugar.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup coconut flour
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk (or dairy-free milk)
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon melted butter or coconut oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Optional: 1-2 tablespoons erythritol or preferred keto sweetener

Instructions

  1. Whisk the dry ingredients: coconut flour, baking powder, and salt, in a medium bowl.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs until slightly frothy.
  3. Add the almond milk, melted butter or oil, and vanilla extract to the eggs. Mix well.
  4. Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix. If using sweetener, add it now. The batter will be thick. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes to allow the coconut flour to absorb the liquid.
  5. Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium-low heat. Lightly grease the surface.
  6. Pour 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto the hot skillet. You may need to gently spread the batter slightly with the back of the spoon, as it will not spread like traditional batter.
  7. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set.
  8. Flip carefully and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
  9. Serve immediately with your favorite low-carb toppings.

Notes

  • For extra fluffiness, separate the egg whites, whip them to soft peaks, and gently fold them into the final batter.
  • If the batter seems too thick after resting, add one teaspoon of almond milk at a time until you reach a thick but pourable consistency.
  • Use medium-low heat to prevent the pancakes from burning before the center cooks.
