While this recipe is slightly more involved, it is full of flavor, keto-friendly and best of all, has a texture a lot like regular pancakes. Top with your choice of keto-approved syrup, keto whipped cream, and/or berries.

Directions

Step 1

Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat; cook, stirring frequently, until starting to brown, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool while preparing the batter.

Step 2

Whisk almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, sweetener, chia seeds, cinnamon, and salt together in a bowl. Add browned butter, eggs, milk, softened cream cheese, and maple extract; mix until batter is no longer lumpy. Mix in more milk if batter is too thick.
Step 3

Heat some coconut oil in the same skillet over medium-low heat. Drop spoonfuls of batter into the skillet, making 2-inch silver dollar pancakes. Cook until pancakes appear set, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip and continue cooking until browned on the second side, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Repeat with remaining coconut oil and batter.

Cook's Notes:

You can use a mixture of half cream-half water instead of the milk.

If you're on a strict keto diet, use a keto-friendly baking powder.

I tried the recipe a couple different ways. I enjoyed it the most with half the eggs and double the milk. To each their own :) Read More

Mixed review. The batter mixed easily but was very thick and needed much milk. The pancakes baked just like non-keto pancakes but when it came to flipping the pancake it didn't flip well due to not baking inside. I don't like textures like cornmeal or oatmeal and if you use superfine almond flour. The flavor and smell is wonderful. Read More
