How to Make the Easiest, Tastiest Almond Flour Pancakes
These nearly foolproof gluten-free pancakes are ready in enjoy in just 20 minutes. First, set out a large mixing bowl. Add the almond flour, brown sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon to the bowl. Whisk the dry ingredients well. In a measuring pitcher, whisk together the wet ingredients – eggs, almond milk, and vanilla extract. Then whisk the wet mixture thoroughly into the dry mixture and blend. There will be small lumps, but that’s ok. You don’t want to work the batter too much so that the pancakes rise properly. Place a nonstick skillet over medium heat on the stovetop. Once hot, place a small dollop of butter or oil in the skillet and melt. Use a ¼ cup scoop to portion the pancake batter and pour it onto the hot skillet. Cook the Almond Flour Pancakes for just a few minutes per side. Use a thin spatula to flip the pancakes once or twice until browned on both sides. Raise or lower the temperature as needed so the pancakes cook through, yet stay golden on the outside without burning. Once done, transfer the pancakes to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, and keep warm in a 200-degree oven. Repeat the pancake-making process with the remaining batter.
Serving Suggestions for Easy Almond Flour Pancakes
Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings. We love the classic combination of butter and a drizzle of maple syrup! These Almond Flour Pancakes are also delicious with fresh fruit, like sliced strawberries or bananas, chocolate chips, and a dusting of powdered sugar. Or try it with our glorious Blueberry Sauce or Raspberry Maple Syrup! Serve these pancakes alongside bacon, sausage, or eggs.
How to Store Leftovers
Once cooled, place leftover pancakes in an airtight container and keep them in the fridge for up to 3-4 days. They also freeze quite well. Wrap individual pancakes in plastic wrap, and then stack them together in an airtight container. Keep in the freezer for up to 3 months. Reheat pancakes either wrapped in a paper towel in the microwave for just a few seconds or bake in an oven at 350 degrees for 10 minutes or so.
