Almond Cream Cheese Keto Pancakes
Description
The recipe combines eggs and cream cheese blended until fluffy, then incorporates almond flour, sweetener, and optional cinnamon to form a smooth batter. Cooking in melted butter over medium heat produces small pancakes with set edges and a tender, soft center. The almond flour provides a mild nutty flavor and a light texture.
This pancake recipe yields about eight pancakes, making two pancakes a portion. They can be served with toppings like Greek yogurt, fresh berries, or sugar-free syrup for sweetness or, when omitting sweetener, with savory options like spinach and bacon.
Adding baking powder to the mix can create fluffier pancakes. Butter usage can vary depending on pan type. The recipe provides nutritional information per portion and allows flexibility in flavorings and accompaniments.
Ingredients
- ½ cup plus 1 tbsp almond flour (60g)
- ½ cup cream cheese 125g, full fat
- 4 egg
- 1 teaspoon granulated sweetener
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
- butter for frying
Instructions
- Blend the eggs and cream cheese until fluffy. Then, add the almond flour, sweetener and cinnamon. Blend until a smooth pancake batter forms.
- Fry pancakes in melted butter in a non-stick pan over a medium heat for 2-3 minutes. In a large pan, you can fry 2 pancakes at the same time. The pancakes should be small, around 10-12 cm in diameter.
- Flip the pancakes over with a wide spatula once the centre begins to bubble and the edges are set. Cook until the bottom side has set fully, around 1-2 minutes.
Notes
- This batter makes approximately 8 pancakes; nutritional info is per 2 pancakes (one portion).
- Add ½ teaspoon baking powder for fluffier pancakes if desired.
- Butter amount varies by pan used; it is not included in nutritional calculations.
- Serve with sweet toppings like berries and sugar-free syrup or savory items such as spinach and bacon by omitting sweetener.
