Keto Pancakes Ingredients
Superfine Almond Flour: Look for very finely ground blanched almond flour for making pancakes. We like this organic superfine almond flour. This will make your keto pancakes light and fluffy. You can also use almond meal, but the pancakes will have a very different texture.
Tapioca Flour: Also known as tapioca starch, we're using just a touch of this to help create a pleasing, fluffy texture.
Baking Soda: To help these keto pancakes rise.
Salt: To balance the other flavors.
Eggs: Two large eggs add volume to the batter and help to hold everything together. Let your eggs come to room temperature before mixing to get a smooth pancake batter.
Maple Flavored Syrup: To add sweetness. You can use your sugar free syrup of choice. We like Lakanto.
Vanilla Extract: This is the thing that will make your house smell amazing while these keto pancakes are cooking. Use pure vanilla extract for the best results.
Dairy-free Milk: You can use your choice of unsweetened dairy free milk in this keto pancakes recipe. Regular milk can also be used.

Can I use an egg substitute in low carb pancakes?
Flax-egg and chia seed egg have been used in these low carb pancakes before. They come out delicious, but they don't get the same rise as you would if you used eggs.

How to make low carb pancakes
- Mix dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl then transfer to an airtight container if you are saving it for later. Don't forget to label your container with the date.
- When you are ready to make low carb pancakes: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, sugar-free maple flavored syrup, vanilla, and sugar-free dairy-free milk.
- Add dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir until smooth. If you mixed up more than one batch of low carb pancake mix, measure out approximately 1.5 cups + 1 tablespoon of mix. In weight that's about 180 g.
- Spoon ¼ cup of prepared keto pancake batter onto a medium hot griddle and cook until the edges start to brown and bubbles form.

Tips: Always follow the recipe first. Don't work with substitutions until you know how the recipe works. Once your batter is ready, heat your pan or electric griddle and start making your low carb pancakes.

How to serve keto pancakes
These low carb pancakes are delicious on their own since there is a bit of sweetener in the batter. Adding cinnamon, your choice of butter and a splash of sugar free syrup works too.

For a Sunday brunch style treat, add blueberries or keto chocolate chips to the batter and top with our keto whip cream.
Low Carb Pancakes Flour
These are the best low carb pancakes using almond flour. Remember when measuring almond flour, to spoon your flour into your measuring cup, then level it.
Do not dip your measuring cup into the flour then level, it will be too much almond flour. You're keto pancakes won't cook up properly.
Keto Pancakes with an electric griddle vs. a pan
You don't need an electric griddle to make keto pancakes but I find that it's way easier. For one, you don't oil an electric griddle. It's non-stick.
Also, the heat tends to stay even throughout the griddle whereas with a pan the heat might fluctuate. Also, you can make 6-8 low carb pancakes at once on an electric griddle.

Can I freeze keto pancakes?
Yes, you can freeze keto pancakes. Always bring your low carb pancakes to room temperature first, before you freeze them.
After they are at room temperature you can store them in an airtight container or a zip lock bag for up to three months.
Some people like to place pieces of wax paper or parchment paper between each of the low carb pancakes. I don’t find you need to.
Keto Pancakes are Sticking
The batter for these keto pancakes is on the thick side. If you're low carb pancakes are sticking to your griddle, add 1 tablespoon of oil to the batter and mix it in. Additionally, make sure your griddle is evenly heated and hot before cooking.

There are a couple of low carb pancake mixes available in stores and online. Always check ingredients of each keto pancake mix before purchasing.
