Best Paleo Pancakes
The Best Paleo Pancakes are made with a blend of almond, tapioca, and coconut flours combined with eggs, almond milk, honey, vinegar, and vanilla. These ingredients create small, fluffy pancakes with a slightly nutty flavor and soft crumb. Cooking them in ghee provides a golden crust and rich taste, making them suitable for a paleo diet without traditional wheat flour.
Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- ½ cup almond flour
- ⅓ cup tapioca flour
- ¼ cup coconut flour
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients
- 4 egg large
- ¼ cup almond milk
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon white wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ghee butter or coconut oil to coat skillet
Instructions
- Whisk all of the dry ingredients together in a bowl.
- In a separate bowl, whisk all of the wet ingredients. Then, add the wet ingredients to the dry and whisk until well combined.
- Heat a skillet or griddle on medium-high heat and coat with ghee, butter or coconut oil.
- Spoon the batter onto the skillet, keeping your pancakes approximately 3-4 inches in diameter. They're much easier to flip smaller. Let them cook for 2-3 minutes on one side, then flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.
- Serve immediately with maple syrup, bananas and other toppings.
Notes
- Using superfine almond flour made from blanched almonds improves batter texture in paleo baking.
- White wine vinegar is important to help make the pancakes fluffy, but other vinegar types work as substitutes.
- These pancakes can be frozen after cooking and reheated in a toaster or microwave for quick meals.
- Using a pancake pen or similar tool helps create perfectly round pancakes for even cooking.
