Pancakes

Last month we had dinner at one of our favorite restaurants with friends Gary and Nancy. During this sumptuous meal, Gary mentioned that he was looking for a good pancake recipe. I’ve decided to pass on our secret family formula.

My children like these pancakes –a lot. High in protein, we eat them for breakfast, lunch and every now and then, dinner. Enjoy.pancake batter

Pancakes
3 cups blanched almond flour
½ cup heavy cream
8 eggs
½ cup salted butter, melted
¼ cup agave nectar
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 pinch celtic sea salt
butter for frying

  1. In a blender, combine almond flour, cream, eggs, butter, agave, vanilla, baking soda and salt and blend on high until smooth
  2. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium heat
  3. When butter is hot, ladle pancake batter onto skillet
  4. Pancakes will bubble, when bubbles open, flip pancakes over and cook on other side
  5. When pancakes are done, remove from heat to a plate
  6. Ladle more batter onto skillet and make additional batches, adding more butter to grease skillet as needed
  7. Serve with syrup and yogurt

Makes 24 pancakes

Update: For those of you who have been requesting a dairy-free alternative i’ve recently posted my dairy-free flapjack recipe. Enjoy!

    Just found your site and love it already! Was wondering if you have any suggestions on how to make the pancakes dairy free. We have been gluten free for six months and are now eliminating dairy and soy. Still have a lot to learn, so any suggestion/help would be great! Keep the posts and great recipes rolling!
