Ingredients
Units
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup almond milk (or milk of choice)
- 1 tsp coconut oil or butter, melted and cooled (plus more for cooking)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the almond flour, baking powder, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, almond milk, melted & cooled coconut oil, and vanilla until smooth.
- Pour the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and stir until just combined. Don’t overmix . The batter should be thick but pourable.
- Heat a little oil or butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Scoop about 1/4 cup of batter per pancake into the pan.
- Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until small bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip carefully and cook for another 1-2 minutes, until golden brown.
- Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more oil to the pan as needed.
- Serve warm with your favourite toppings, such as fresh berries, yogurt, or maple syrup.
Notes
- Use almond flour, not almond meal, for the fluffiest texture.
- Cook on medium heat to avoid burning.
- Expect a tender, slightly grainy texture (like cornbread).
- Mix in berries or chocolate chips, but don’t overfill the batter.
- Flip gently with a thin spatula once bubbles form on top.
