Ingredients

  • ¾ cup almond flour
  • ½ cup  oat fiber see notes
  • 3 eggs separated
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons Swerve confectioners or powdered Erythritol
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ¾ cup heavy cream
  • Avocado oil for the pan or coconut oil, clarified butter, ghee
  • Optional Homemade Strawberry Sauce  
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Separate the eggs. Whip the egg whites in a mixing bowl until you get soft peaks and set aside.
  2. In another bowl, add the egg yolks, swerve, vanilla and the heavy cream.  Mix using a hand mixer for about 2 minutes.  Add the egg whites in and mix briefly.
  3. In a separate bowl mix the almond flour, oat fiber, baking powder and salt.
  4. Add the dry ingredients into the wet and mix until combined.  Batter should be a little loose, but not too runny.  Add a little more heavy cream, if needed.
  5. Add some avocado oil, coconut oil or clarified butter/ghee to a nonstick skillet on low heat and add the pancake batter to make pancakes of about 4” in diameter.  Cook them on low heat with a lid on for a few minutes on each side, this is key!
  6. Top with butter and my (optional) Homemade Strawberry Sauce!

Notes

  • *Macros do not include optional strawberry sauce
  • Oat Fiber is made from grinding the outer husks of oats. How healthy is oat fiber? It's pure insoluble fiber, which doesn't dissolve in water and isn't broken down in the digestive tract, so it has zero net carbs and is perfect for a Keto Diet. It helps give a more traditional texture and that's why I use it so often. Check out all the Keto Oat Fiber Recipes you can make!
  • To get the best results, it's best to use oat fiber if you can. If you're unable to find it, try a combination of psyllium husk powder and coconut flour. Since both are very absorbent, you might have to add more liquid.
