Notes

Use Good Quality Coconut Milk: The flavor of these pancakes is from a blend of coconut oil and coconut milk. Coconut milk in a can loses it's freshness and sweetness, so I buy full fat coconut milk in a carton, similar to how it's sold in SE Asia. It really does make a difference in your coconut milk recipes!

Heat the Skillet Prior to Adding Pancake Batter: These pancakes will cook very similar to a regular pancake, so add the oil to your skillet, and heat to medium high prior to adding the pancake batter.

Watch Pancakes Closely!: Almond flour burns, and it also will dry out faster than regular flour. Watch pancakes, and when bubbles begin to form on the tops of the batter, flip them. The second side only needs to cook for about a minute.

Optional Pancake Variations

Keto Blueberry Pancakes: Add 1/2 cup of fresh or frozen blueberries to the batter. If using frozen blueberries, lower the temperature and allow them to cook for 3-4 minutes longer than the plain pancakes.

Keto Chocolate Chip Pancakes: Use some chopped 85% dark chocolate or 2-3 tablespoons of keto chocolate chips in the batter.

Lemon Poppyseed Pancakes: Add 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, the zest of 1 lemon, and 1 teaspoon of poppyseeds to the batter along with the wet ingredients. These are a fav!
