AMAZING ALMOND FLOUR PANCAKES (GLUTEN-FREE AND PALEO-FRIENDLY)



Amazing Almond Flour Pancakes (Gluten-Free and Paleo-Friendly) image

While trying many of the grain free pancake ideas out there, I discovered that many pancake recipes are just too 'eggy' or include bananas in the recipe. A lot of the recipes resulted in pancakes that were too flat and broke apart when flipping. I wanted a recipe that was like the Aunt Jemima® pancakes I grew up with: delicious and fluffy. After much experimentation with recipes and reading forum comments, I finally put together something reminiscent of childhood quality pancakes. Top with maple syrup and fresh fruit.

I love breakfast. But when you're going gluten-free, wheat-free, or paleo, there aren't a lot of options. This recipe rocks when you need pancakes to save you from a blah breakfast morning.

PALEO COCONUT PANCAKES



PALEO COCONUT PANCAKES image

Categories     Egg     Breakfast     High Fiber     Wheat/Gluten-Free     Healthy

Yield 5 large pancakes

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 eggs
3 tablespoons melted butter or oil
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons coconut milk
1/2 teaspoon honey
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup coconut flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 cup or so water
Optional additions: flaked coconut, berries, nuts, cinnamon

Steps:

  • Whisk together eggs, oil, coconut milk, honey and vanilla. In a separate bowl, stir together dry ingredients then add the wet ingredients, stirring until smooth. Add the water to thin the batter out until it reaches your desired consistency. In a well-buttered pan or griddle, cook pancakes until browned on both sides (about 3 minutes a side). Smaller pancakes are easier to flip than larger ones, since the pancakes will fall apart if they are too big.

Tips:

  • When making the pancake batter, use a whisk to gently combine the ingredients. Over-mixing can result in dense, chewy pancakes.
  • Let the batter rest for 5-10 minutes before cooking. This allows the tapioca flour to fully absorb the liquid and results in lighter, fluffier pancakes.
  • Use a hot, lightly greased skillet or griddle for cooking the pancakes. This will help them cook evenly and prevent sticking.
  • Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot skillet or griddle for each pancake. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown.
  • Serve the pancakes immediately with your favorite toppings, such as maple syrup, butter, fruit, or whipped cream.

Conclusion:

Paleo pancakes are a delicious and healthy alternative to traditional pancakes. They are made with wholesome, gluten-free ingredients and are a great option for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. With a little practice, you can easily make perfect paleo pancakes that are light, fluffy, and flavorful. So next time you're craving pancakes, give this paleo recipe a try!
