Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups of almond flour
  • 1 tablespoon of avocado oil or coconut oil
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon of baking powder
  • 2 tablespoons of your preferred sweetener
  • A pinch of salt
  • 8 tablespoons of butter melted
  • 2 to 4 tablespoons of water see note below
  • Extra butter for greasing the griddle

Instructions
 

  • In a food processor or blender, combine the almond flour, avocado or coconut oil, eggs, vanilla extract, baking powder, sweetener, and salt. Blend on low speed.
  • While blending, slowly add in the melted butter until the mixture is smooth and fully incorporated.
  • Gradually mix in 2 to 4 tablespoons of water. The goal is to achieve a thick batter consistency, akin to that of brownie batter.
  • Allow the batter to rest for 5 minutes before cooking.
  • Preheat a griddle or non-stick skillet over medium-low heat. Grease lightly with butter.
  • Use a 1/3 cup measuring cup to pour the batter onto the griddle, forming pancakes.
  • Cook until the edges appear set, bubbles form on the surface, and a spatula can easily slide underneath, indicating readiness to flip.
  • Flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 30 seconds to 1 minute.
  • Serve warm, topped with a pat of butter and sugar-free maple syrup for the perfect finish.

Notes

Notes:
  • The batter should be thick but not overly dense. If it appears too thick, adjust by adding 1 to 2 tablespoons of water to slightly thin it out. However, ensure it does not become runny.
