Baked Low Carb Almond Pancakes with Orange and Thyme
These Baked Low Carb Almond Pancakes combine almond flour, coconut flour, eggs, milk, vanilla, orange zest, and fresh thyme baked into a golden, puffed pancake. The texture is soft and moist with a gentle herbal note from thyme and bright citrus flavor from orange zest. Baking in a silicon pan ensures easy release and a nicely browned exterior. This recipe offers a low-carb alternative to traditional pancakes.
