It's not simple to perfect the perfect pancake recipe, but once you've mastered it and your pancake-flipping talents, there's a high chance you'll want to prepare a few flapjacks for breakfast anytime you get the chance. And if you're on the keto diet, there's no need to fear about losing out. That's right—just because you're on a low-carb diet doesn't mean you can't have some fluffy pancakes to start your morning. This is where our keto pancakes recipe comes in handy.

What's nice about this recipe is how simple it is to prepare. You'll use ingredients that aren't often associated with pancakes, but once you've gathered the almond flour, coconut flour, and collagen peptides, everything else you'll need is readily available in your kitchen. Plus, with the addition of various toppings, pancakes can be easily customized. You will not be bored!

INGREDIENTS

1 cup almond flour, blanched

2 tablespoons coconut flour

2 tablespoons collagen peptides

1 tbsp Lakanto powdered sweetener (optional).

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt

four huge eggs

a third cup of heavy cream (or coconut cream).

2 tablespoons avocado oil

1 teaspoon cider vinegar

For cooking, use ghee or extra avocado oil.

HOW TO MAKE KETO PANCAKES

1. Pre-heat the oven to 200oF. Whisk together the flours, collagen, sweetener (if using), baking powder, and salt in a large mixing basin, taking care to break up any lumps. In a small mixing dish, combine the eggs, cream, oil, and vinegar. Mix the egg mixture into the flour mixture thoroughly.

2. Melt butter in a griddle or big skillet over medium-low heat. Apply ghee or oil to the brush. Drop 3 tablespoons of pancake batter into the pan and cook until brown on the bottom, about 2 to 3 minutes. Cook until brown on the opposite side and heated through, about 1 minute more. Transfer to a platter or baking sheet and keep warm in the oven while you finish the rest of the pancakes.

How to Make The Keto Pancakes Your Own

Here are some inventive keto-friendly additions to your batter:

• freeze-dried raspberries or strawberries, crushed
• unsweetened coconut flakes, toasted
• sugar-free chocolate chips or sugar-free dark chocolate chunks
• cooked bacon, finely chopped (cook pancakes in rendered bacon fat)
• Cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, and vanilla extract
