Did you think pancakes were a no-go on the Keto Diet? I know I did back when I started eating low carb. I thought I was destined to be eating eggs and bacon every morning. And I was OK with that as long as I continued to lose weight. 

But then it got old. Fast. And I found myself with a longing to pull over at every Cracker Barrel and Waffle House I saw to get my carb fix. 

I knew I needed to figure out this breakfast dilemma I was having fast or risk gaining the weight back. And that was out of the question.  

Enter: Almond Flour

You see, I had tried several Keto Pancake recipes and while a few were solid contenders for my breakfast line up, none were scoring a ten on the taste scale. Of course, I was comparing egg and cream cheese combos to Cracker Barrel’s Momma’s Big Breakfast Flapjacks, so they didn’t have a fighting chance. 
But I pressed on.

I learned a few things during this trial and error phase of discovery you may need to know. First, the two ingredient recipes featuring eggs and cream cheese tasted wrong — nothing like a real pancake-more like a scrambled egg that was trying too hard to fit in with the cool Keto recipes. 

Coconut flour? Nope. Just No. They were a total FLOP, and even my Great Dane Bleu-who eats literally everything turned his nose up to that one. 

The first time I tried an Almond Flour recipe ended in total disaster because I made the rookie mistake of not reading the label carefully. I grabbed Almond Meal instead of Almond Flour.

Guess what? They are NOT interchangeable! Life lesson learned.

Almond Meal vs. Almond Flour 

Both Almond Meal and Almond Flour are gluten-free flours made with finely ground almonds, so you’d think you could switch them up-but not so fast…

When you’re talking baked goods, you are looking for the most finely ground flour to get the right texture and consistency.

Blanched Almond Flour is THE best choice- Blanching removes the skin of the almond which makes it easier to grind into a light flour.

Why is that a thing? Well, the lighter the flour, the better the consistency plus you’ll get less of the nutty flavor! You are welcome to try this comparison at home, but trust me on this one. When you’re baking go with Blanched.

When I finally got this recipe right, I celebrated by making a fool of myself in front of my family. Nobody here was near as stoked about a Keto Pancake Recipe as I was-except for maybe Bleu because he did enjoy a few of the test runs! 

Ok, so how do you make Keto Pancakes with Almond Flour that curb those cravings & prevent you from a total diet disaster? 

It’s easy! 

Keto Pancakes – Ingredients

The blender is optional – you can feel free to whisk these bad boys into shape, but I’ve found my mixer is the best and easiest route to take on busy mornings when my wrist is tired and I’m barely awake!

Meal Prep

You know I love a good Meal Prep recipe and this one is perfect for your make-ahead line-up! You can store these in the refrigerator for up to 5 days & they freeze well, too. Just stick them in an airtight container or freezer bag! You will want to separate each pancake with a piece of parchment paper so they won’t stick together. Unless you enjoy the monotony of trying to pull frozen pancakes apart and if you do go for it!:)

Keto-Friendly Maple Syrup

You’ll also want to make sure you have syrup on hand – because – what’s a pancake without syrup? This Lakanto Maple Syrup is keto-friendly (1 net carb), sugar-free, all-natural, and low glycemic.

Ingredients

Scale

Instructions

Whisk ingredients together in a medium-sized bowl OR throw all of them into a blender for roughly 2 minutes until smooth.

Grab your favorite non-stick skillet & heat those teaspoons of butter over medium-high heat. Then cook the cakes (I use my 1/4 Cup to spoon them into the skillet) until you see bubbles. That’s the sign you’re looking for to flip. Try not to flip your pancakes prematurely! You’ll be standing by the stove for about 2 minutes per side! It’s worth it!!!!

Notes

Variations: Add 1/2 Teaspoon Cinnamon

Top with Low Carb Berries

Top with Butter & Low Carb Maple Syrup (Lakanto Sugar Free Maple Syrup-Recommended)

Looking For Ways To Make Sticking To Keto Easier?

I get it! I’ve lost 148 pounds on the keto diet and maintained that weight loss for eight years. Here are my top two sanity-saving recommendations.

My book Rebel Keto  explains how I lost weight without doing macro math at every meal. If you are a woman who is tired of trendy diet B.S. and needs a real-world roadmap to help you navigate the keto diet and drop weight like a bad habit. 

Rebel Keto is the all-new sustainable approach to the keto diet. 

With over 110 easy-to-follow recipes, Rebel Keto serves up the tea on how to level up your weight loss and health for life. Rebel Keto takes the guesswork, boredom, and the math out of going low carb – for real.Think of Rebel Keto as cracking open an 80’s time capsule to uncover the truth about the lies that led us to an obesity epidemic as you take a walk down memory lane. Cue up the old-school style mixtape of low-carb recipes, and prepare to serve (or get served) deliciously wicked recipes:

  • The Drop Biscuits Sir Mix A Lot Would Approve Of
  • Bill & Ted’s Egg Salad Adventure
  • The Great Muppet Caper Butter with Dill

  • Working 9 To 5 Cheeseburger Casserole
