    Cream cheese should be full-fat cream cheese

    Large eggs

    Pure vanilla extract for flavor

    Almond flour

    Peanut butter powder, adds flavor and stability

    Granulated sugar-free sweetener, this is the brand I use

    Baking powder will aid in making fluffy almond flour pancakes

    Sugar-free maple syrup, not required, but if you like syrup on your pancakes, this brand is the best!

    🔪 Instructions

    1. In a medium bowl, using a hand mixer, blend together the cream cheese, eggs, and vanilla extract well combined. Set aside.
    2. In a separate bowl, combine the almond flour, peanut butter powder, sweetener, salt, and baking powder. Add to egg mixture and stir until dry ingredients are well incorporated.
    3. Set the pancake batter aside for 5 minutes. The batter will rise and thicken.
    4. Melt the butter in a large non stick skillet. Once hot, turn heat down to medium low and spoon a tablespoon of pancake batter into the frying pan, spreading slightly with spoon. 
    5. Cook slowly, carefully flipping pancake over when batter begins to bubble on top and bottom is browned.
    6. Cook another 30 seconds, until pancake is lightly browned, then remove from the frying pan. Serve with your choice of keto friendly toppings!

    🙋 Recipe FAQ's

    Can I use this batter for keto waffles?

    I don't recommend using this pancake batter for the waffle iron as it is quite thin.

    Can I make this pancake batter the night before?

    Yes! The pancake batter needs to rest for a short bit anyway before frying and an overnight rest in the refrigerator won't hurt.

    How do I reheat almond flour pancakes?

    These pancakes can easily be reheated in a microwave or toaster oven.

    Can you substitute almond meal for almond flour?

    Yes, almond meal and almond flour are pretty much the same thing. Almond meal is a little coarser.

    💭 Tips

    • After the batter has been mixed together, let it sit on the counter for about five minutes. This will allow the batter to rise and gain volume from the addition of the baking powder.
    • Cook the pancakes in tablespoon-sized pancakes. The smaller the pancake, the easier it will be to flip.

    📖 Variations

    • Add a few fresh blueberries to the top of the pancake batter after you put them in the skillet.
    • Skip the sugar-free syrup and make a lemon icing drizzle with powdered sugar free sweetener and lemon juice. Then garnish with a few fresh berries and lemon zest.
    • Make a whipped cream topping for your pancakes and serve with chopped strawberries.

      Hi Shelby,

      These pancakes are quite delicious. My whole family loves them. I have to quadruple the recipe because my family will eat so many. I think these pancakes are actually better than regular pancakes. I've never had the peanut butter powder so I just used a scoop of peanut butter and it is delicious.

        Hi Jennifer, thanks for stopping by to let me know! I have used peanut butter also because I don't always have PB powder on hand. I'm happy your family loves them!

        Hi Bern, no, I have not used this as a waffle batter and don't recommend it as a waffle. If you are looking for a waffle recipe, I just posted one for Blueberry Waffles - Keto Recipe. I highly recommend that batter for waffles.
