These keto-friendly cottage cheese pancakes are the perfect healthy and delicious breakfast. They are packed with healthy fats - from almond flour and eggs - and proteins - from cottage cheese. These pancakes are low in carbs and gluten-free.

No refined sugar, gluten-free…..pancakes. What a dream!
I admit, lately I’ve been thinking a lot about jumping on the Keto diet bandwagon, but I can’t say goodbye to my pasta and pizza yet. So, I decided that I will try to implement some keto-friendly meals into my diet little by little and see how it goes. Pancakes were the first thing on my keto list that I wanted to nail; I think I did quite well after a couple of failures.
Ingredients and substitutes
Blanched almond flour - Keto cottage cheese pancakes made with almond flour always turn out moist and soft.
Cottage cheese - Make sure that you use full-fat cottage cheese.
Eggs - We need eggs (at room temperature) to combine and hold all our ingredients together.
Butter - Use unsalted, melted butter.
Sweetener - Any granulated sweetener will work in this recipe. I prefer to use a stevia and erythritol blend from Sukrin (I find it has little to no aftertaste), but you can use Swerve, monk fruit, or allulose.
Baking powder – There are many, many complaints out there about keto pancakes not being fluffy at all. Even though I find these keto-friendly cottage cheese pancakes very fluffy, let’s double-down and make sure.
Step by step directions
Super easy! First, you need to place all ingredients into a bowl and blend everything together using an immersion blender, or a hand blender if you will. If you don’t have an immersion blender, you can use a countertop blender or food pressor instead!
Preheat your skillet over medium-low heat and grease it with a little bit of butter. Measure out ¼ cup of pancake batter and pour it into the skillet. Spread it gently using a teaspoon or a spatula.
Cook the pancakes for about 2 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Top our fluffy pancakes with fresh berries like blueberries and strawberries, pour keto-friendly syrup of your choice (you can also try my KETO CARAMEL SAUCE or KETO NUTELLA CHOCOLATE SPREAD), and serve.
Is almond flour low in carbs
First, we need to understand what almond flour is. Well, it’s simply finely-ground almonds - and almonds are naturally high in fats, protein, and fiber, but low in carbs. 100g of almond flour contains only 8-9g of carbs compared to 70g in all-purpose flour. That’s a huge difference!
How many carbs in cottage cheese pancakes
It depends on what size pancakes you prefer to make. If you make 6 pancakes out of this recipe, you’ll get 2g net carbs per pancake.
FAQ
As long as you use cottage cheese that doesn’t contain any added sugars, it’s keto-friendly! The cottage cheese that I used in this recipe is KESO 4% fat and has just 1.7g of carbs per 100g.
Technically, you can! However, the texture and taste will be completely different. Also, you’ll need much less coconut flour, as it has much higher water absorption than almond flour.
You can use full-fat cream cheese instead. However, you might need to adjust the amount, as the fat content in cream cheese is different from cottage cheese.

Martin says
Very tasty! There is no need for sugar, the maple syrup makes it sweet.
Anna says
Oh, I'm so glad to hear that!
Stephanie says
Eating two now ! So good!
Anna says
Enjoy!
Carol Beckwith says
I tried these pancakes this morning and OMG, they were delicious, just like regular ones. I must say that I was skeptical, I have been doing keto off and on for 2 yrs. and have experimented with multiple recipes, all claiming to be the best, after reading many of the reviews I decided to give yours a try and it did not disappoint. I mixed monk fruit sweetener with strawberries, raspberries and blackberries with whipped cream on top and I was in keto cottage cheese pancake heaven. Thanks so much for this delicious recipe, I pinned it and will be using from now on.👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Anna says
Thank you so much for your comment, Carol! I'm happy that you like these pancakes 🙂
Jay L says
these pancakes are tasty but impossible to turn over without falling apart or tletting them cook a long time without burning.. need to tweak to figure this out.
Anna says
Hi Jay! You should cook them over medium low or even low heat with the lid on to give them time to set before flipping. I hope you will find the right temperature to cook them on your stove.
Diane says
These are delicious.
Mary says
Loved them !!!
Rae says
Can you pre-mix and store the dry ingrediants in storage container? And then add the wet ingrediants when making a batch? I have long since stopped buying Bisquik, pre-mix my own dry ingrediants for storage and then add wet when I want to stir together batch of pancakes.
Margaret says
This turned out to be an oatmeal like mush. what on earth did I do wrong?
rachel r orth says
Margaret, mine turned out like dough. I triple checked the recipe and it was right. It was so thick, I thought it was a typo in the recipe and maybe it was supposed to be 1/4 cup of flour instead of 3/4's of a cup? I added another 1/2 cup of cottage, a few spoons of Greek yogurt, an egg and water. Still thick but a little better. I don't get it.
Gerry says
I tried these this morning, and they were totally scrumptious!! My batter was a little thick, so I added a touch of kefir. They are the best keto pancakes I have ever made!!
Joanne says
so good !
I decided to double recipe so for 1/2 flour used 50-50 coconut flour and buckwheat. came out great!! added some nutmilk & reg milk bc needed more liquid.
Going to freeze some too. been wanting to try with cottage cheese! I've made in past woth yogurt & so good too - makes them very fluffy. maybe next time will try half cottage cheese/ half yogurt !
Claudia says
Definitely a keeper for recipes. I'm on a low carb journey and this fixed my carb craving for breakfast. I used avocado oil instead of adding butter to the mix. I used butter to coat my pan and they cooked nicely. I sprinkled a bit of cinnamon as they cooked.
I topped it with a small amount of keto granola and a splash of maple syrup. pairs well with bacon on the side.
Thanks again for this morning recipe treat!
Anna says
Thank you, Claudia! Glad to hear that you like my recipe 🙂
Denise Tolliver says
Excellent recipe.. this is my second time making them. The first time I made half the batch as pancakes and half as waffles using the Dash Mini Waffle maker. This time, I made a whole batch of blueberry waffles with the recipe and topped with Walden's Farms suffer sugar free syrup. Just what I needed! Thanks so much for posting.
Anna says
I should try to make waffles too! Thank you!
Dawny says
Has anyone tried freezing the pancakes ?
Deb Burk says
They are very good frozen. I freeze them individually. It is very handy to them available whenever you want them.
Anna says
Thank you for sharing this info with us!
Leah says
Absolutely LOVE this recipe.
Have made numerous times and they’re flawless. Light, fluffy and tasty.
I often leave out the sweetener and convert to savoury pancakes. Sprinkling some cheese in the pan before I add the batter and once cooked topping with my fave ingredients. Tomato, avocado, mushroom etc.
Thank you, and YUM!
Anna says
Thank you, Leah!
Debby says
Love these pancakes, they are so delicious. Just the recipe I was looking for. The other recipes all seem to fall apart. These are so perfect, can'tstop eating them. Thank you so much.. I am glad I found you. Keep cooking.
Anna says
Thank you, Debby 🙂
JoAnn Tobey says
My husband is allergic to almonds (coconut flour is out, too) so no almond flour for him. Can you suggest an alternative? I have seen sesame flour suggested in other recipes. Do you think it would work?
Anna says
Yes, sesame flour can be an alternative. However, I haven't tried to make these pancakes with it, so I can't be 100% sure if it will work.
DLH says
TIgernut flour is a great substitute for almond flour. It can be hard to find, though. iHerb has it mail order.
Jay Lee says
these pancakes are tasty but impossible to turn over without falling apart or tletting them cook a long time without burning.. need to tweak to figure this out.
Laura says
I put a frying pan lid over mine and reduced the heat. They turned beautifully and came out great!
Inez says
I struggled with all nut flour based pancakes for turning. I admitted defeat and lowered my blood pressure and the need to ask God forgiveness for my foul language . . . . and I bought silicone pans. They have six 4" round cavities. When I doubled the recipe I got exactly 12 pancakes. The pancakes are not mangled or ugly and I am less so.
Bonnie Harrison says
what does your gram measurements convert to cups?
Anna says
Hi Bonnie! 80g of almond flour = 1 cup minus 1 tbsp and 100g of cottage cheese = 1/2 cup.
Wendy says
These are just delicious, no other words necessary. I don’t even like cottage cheese, and I probably won’t ever need a pancake at a restaurant ever again. I’m still working on getting them a bit fluffier -thank you so much for the recipe.
Anna says
Thank you, Wendy! 🙂
Dee says
A M A Z I N G !!!!! easy recipe, easy to cook. I've been making flourless cottage pancakes for a while now, sans recipe and mine can be tough to flip - these showed the same cooking signs as regular pancakes and were even easier to flip! Absolutely wonderful!!
Amarie says
Are you supposed to add the butter to the batter or not? My directions say put all ingredients in the bowl then later says use the butter for the pan. Thanks
Anna says
Hi Amarie! Yes, you need to add the butter to the batter. I fixed the recipe card.
Dee says
Forgot to leave rating - sorry! 5 out of 5 !!!
Anna says
Yay! I'm so happy you liked them!
Maria says
Love it. I added one tablespoon of psyllium and 1/4 cup water for more fiber. Pancakes were fluffy and looked just like a regular pancake.... and taste even better. Thank you.
Anna says
You're welcome, Maria! I'm so happy to hear that you liked my recipe!
Monica says
Hi Maria. Thank you very much for the tip to add psyllium husk. It gave them an incredible fluff! I doubled the recipe and added two table spoons of psyllium husk and added 4 tablespoons of liquid (coconut milk). Even my non keto/low carb husband was amazed on how these pancakes turned out. Thanks again for the tip 😉
Ponch says
Awesome👍 Im glad I found your recipe for pancake using cottage cheese. I was wondering if I can use the recipe to make waffles too.
Anna says
Thank you for your comment, Ponch! I'm glad that you enjoyed my recipe. I haven't try to use this batter for waffles but I think they will be way too soft. If it's not a problem for you, I would say go for it. There are also a couple of tricks that you can try to make this batter work for waffles. 1. Add an extra 1-2 tbsp of melted butter. 2. Separate the eggs and beat the whites to stiff peaks, then fold them into the batter immediately prior to putting the batter in the waffle iron. If you try to make it work, please let me know how it went!
Cheri says
These are sooo yummy I don’t even put any syrup on them!!!
Anna says
Awesome!!!
Penny says
Can I use coconut flour instead of almond?
Anna says
Coconut flour is highly absorbent, much more so than almond flour. It requires a significant amount of liquid to create a proper texture. If you were to replace almond flour with an equal amount of coconut flour in a recipe without adjusting the liquid content, the result would likely be too dry and crumbly.
Karen B says
I measured batter to 1/4 cup each. This recipe only made 5 pancakes. What did I do wrong?
Anna says
I'm sorry, but I don't know what you did wrong. If you measure all ingredients correctly, you should end up with 10 or at least 9 pancakes. Maybe converting almond flour and cottage cheese to cups will help you; 80g of almond flour = 1 cup minus 1 tbsp and 100g of cottage cheese = 1/2 cup. I hope you'll succeed next time you try my recipe!
Neal says
Delicious! I put some raspberries in the microwave and made a delicious coulis. I omitted the syrup and they were a fantastic Keto meal.
Anna says
Thank you, Neal! I'm glad that you liked it!
JANET K Buffaloe says
Best keto pancake ever! I cooked half of the batter one day, refrigerated and cooked the rest next day. Yummy both days. Great recipe find. Thanks.
Cathy says
These were absolutely delicious. We LOVED them!
The only thing that I would do differently is double the recipe so that we have more.
Thank you:)
Anna says
Thank you, Cathy!
ck-w says
Loved these! Much easier than other flat keto pancakes; although I too only made 6 and measured perfectly 🙂 I even weighed vs measured for almond flour BUT I think I will just make em smaller next time. Texture was super and flavour really delish! thank YOU
Anna says
Thank you for your comment, I'm so happy to hear that you loved my recipe! Did you use 1/4 cup to measure butter for each pancake as it's specified in the recipe?
Bronwyn says
Very nice! Just made these.
Anna says
I'm glad to hear that you liked my recipe! Enjoy!
Theresa Raichel says
My sister and I enjoy these pancakes a couple of weekends a month - they taste just like the full-flour version! Yummy with a little more butter on top and sugar-free syrup!
Anna says
I'm so happy to hear that you and your sister liked my recipe! I also enjoy these pancakes with some extra butter on top!
Lili says
So delicious. Best recipe by far. Thanks
Anna says
Thank you, Lili!
Alison Alker says
I've tried a few recipes for keto pancakes but this
Worked really well
Fluffy & good pancake love texture
I did add a bit of psyllium &
lemon zest for added flavour
Thank you
Anna says
Hi Alison, lemon zest in pancakes sounds so delicious. I should try it too!
Ethel says
Just started keto and I made these for my husband and I, so good!!
Anna says
Hi Ethel! Good luck on your keto journey and thank you for the comment!
Sep says
I just made these pancakes and it was very easy to make. Thanks for sharing the recipe and I didn't add any sugar to it. I will add honey or syrup when I am ready to eat.
Anna says
Thank you for your comment, Sep!
Sharon says
We will use this recipe instead of “regular” pancakes. Tastes great!
Anna says
Amazing! Thank you for your comment, Sharon!
Linda Gagnon says
Can I use low fat cottage cheese?
Anna says
I've never used low-fat cottage cheese, so I don't know what texture it has compared to a full-fat one. If it's similar in texture, it should work.
Manita Chand says
Great!
Anna says
Thank you!
Jodi says
Can these be frozen?
Anna says
Hi Jodi, yes you can freeze them! Make sure that your pancakes are cooled down completely before you stack them putting pieces of parchment paper in between so they don't touch each other. Then, pack them in a ziplock bag, remove as much air as possible and freeze for up to 2 months. When ready to use, thaw in the fridge overnight and reheat in the microwave.
Cindy says
How many pancakes is one serving?
Anna says
As many as you want to eat! I wrote approximate nutritional information for one pancake.
Roxanne says
On the nutritional breakdown. Is that net carbs or total carbs for one pancake?
Anna says
You can find net carbs information in the note section of the recipe card or in the post itself. The nutritional label shows total carbs.
Rachelle Newcomb says
I love pancakes and I was so afraid of not being able to eat them on the keto diet. I am so happy I found this recipes….delicious! Thank you for sharing.
Anna says
Thank you so much, Rachelle!
Chiq says
Perfect!
Anna says
Thank you!
Karen says
These were delicious! Mine did come out a little flat. I did add some cinnamon to my batter as well.
Anna says
I'm happy you like the recipe! Thank you for your comment!
Katie says
I’ve tried quite a few low carb / grain free pancakes, and these are the closest I’ve found to regular pancakes! Yum!
Anna says
Thank you, Katie! I'm so happy you like them!
Katie says
These are so good! They taste very similar to regular pancakes. I’ve even used the batter in a low carb cobbler, and it was delicious. Thanks for the recipe!
Anna says
Thank you, Katie!
Vickie Johnson says
Mine stuck and looked like a pile of crumbs. I didn't want to waste the batter, I poured the remainder into a bowl and microwaved it for 1 minute. It was perfect. Fell out of the bowl in a nice big fluffy patty. They say all the best recipes were made by accident. This is the best pancake I have ever made.😆
Anna says
Thank you for your comment, Vickie, and good job on being creative and making this recipe work! It's true that these pancakes can be tricky to fry and flip because there's no gluten that holds everything together as it does in regular pancakes. You need a non-stick skillet (I have one that is dedicated only to pancakes and eggs, so the non-stick layer stays there for longer) and use medium-low heat, so the pancakes have time to cook through before flipping them.
Bobby Scott says
Delicious. Best keto pancakes I have tasted.
Anna says
Thank you!
Diana says
These were so delicious, I also loved them without any syrup! Can you store the leftover batter in the refrigerator?
Anna says
I always make one batch that I cook right away, so I can't tell you how storing will affect the texture. I assume that it should be fine after one day in the fridge.
Klk464 says
maybe it is my pan but flipping them did not turn out for me.
Anna says
You should use a non-stick skillet and cook them over medium-low heat giving them time to cook through before flipping.
Jess Chapkin says
Delish! Just made these and I will be saving the recipe 🙂 Thank you for sharing!
Anna says
Thank you for your comment, Jess!
Wendy Dow says
Can you beat the egg whites and add back into the batter for pancakes?
Anna says
The foam will deflate from mixing it with the rest of the ingredients because, without regular sugar, it won't be stable. So, in my opinion, it's a waste of time.
D. Monroe says
But above, you suggested someone do exactly that in order to adjust the recipe for waffles....
Anna says
Yes, because waffles are not pancakes.
Linda Baldwin says
I made this recipe today using almond meal flour. It was delicious!!
Anna says
Thank you, Linda!
PB says
Fantastic recipe! I've made many low carb pancakes and this is my new favorite. Omitted sweetner and they were still great plain. A real yummy breakfast spot quality pancake..
Anna says
Thank you!
louise says
love needed to cook for a little longer as it wasn’t solid enough to flip - but when they were ready they were anazing
Anna says
Thank you, Louise!
Lynna Hollis says
I just finished making and eating these and they were very good. They are a good option if you are craving pancakes and other breads. I put part of the batter in the waffle maker, and they turned out very crunchy and tasty.
I substituted vegetable oil for the butter and I left out the artificial sweetener. I don’t really understand why the sweetener is needed and too much artificial sweetener is not healthy and keeps you craving sweets.
Anna says
Thank you for your positive review, Lynna!
Christa says
These are the best and less saturated fat then using cream cheese if you’re watching cholesterol! I make up a triple batch and freeze for easy breakfasts. I micro (3) for 60-90 seconds.
Anna says
Thank you for your positive review, Christa!
Brenda says
I made these today and they were easy & delicious. I did use 3 eggs as I only had small eggs. I used a small cast iron skillet heated first, sprayed it with oil & had no trouble turning. Just lift the edge to slip in the spatula & don’t turn too soon.
Anna says
Thank you for sharing your experience with my recipe, Brenda!
Vicki says
These are amazing! will make over and over, sweet or savoury they are great. Thank you so much for sharing this recipe.
Anna says
Thank you, Vicki 🙂
Alysha says
I don't know what I did wrong, I followed the recipe and they didn't work out, couldn't flip them - despite using butter in the pan they just stuck. I threw the rest in the bin! what a waste of ingredients!
Anna says
I recommend using a non-stick skillet for making pancakes (I personally have one solely dedicated to pancakes and eggs, so the non-stick layer lasts longer). It's best to set the heat to medium-low to give the pancakes enough time to cook thoroughly before flipping them.
Cindi says
We loved this recipe! I didn't add the vanilla and doubled the recipe and it turned out great.
Anna says
Thank you for sharing, Cindi!
Claire says
Delicious.
Just made these gorgeous little pancakes.
I didn’t even add the butter. I’m cooking mine in a little coconut oil and they are delicious.
Thank you 🙏🏻
Anna says
Thank you, Claire 🙂
Anna says
By far the best low carb and gluten free pancakes that I have made so far. The pancakes are not gritty. They are also very moist. Thank you for this recipe.
Anna says
That you for your positive review!
Frances says
I just made them today and they are delicious!
Anna says
Thank you, Frances!
Marian says
Holy cow! This is closest thing to a regular pancake ever. Two years on keto and just finding this. Delicious and easy! THANK-YOU!!!!
Anna says
You're welcome, Marian!
Melanie says
I'm itching to try this recipe, Anna! And I'm grateful I stumbled upon your website today. Let's call it a "happy accident".
Had to go gluten-free about seven years ago and believe me, gluten-free baking is always a roll of the dice. You mentioned "failures" in your post. I've had many of those. But over the years, my learning curve is getting shorter, thank goodness.
Just one question: I don't care for cottage cheese. Do you think full-fat ricotta cheese would work in these pancakes? Thank you!
Anna says
Hi, Melanie! Ricotta cheese is very different from cottage cheese, so I would not recommend trying to replace it.
Carol A B says
I love making these. They taste like “real” pancakes. I make mine smaller so I can fool myself by eating two for the price (carbs) of one.
Anna says
Thank you for your positive review, Carol! 🙂
Tawnya says
hi Anna I have not made these yet but I did read the reviews and you said that it makes 9 pancakes but your recipe says 6. so I just wanted to clarify. I will be making these soon I can't wait
Anna says
You will get 6 pancakes.
Allison says
These are good, but texture is sensitive to flipping due to be a very soft, thin pancake.
I added a spoonful of egg white protein powder and more vanilla. The egg white protein powder made the pancake a little thicker/taller with more structure to flip, plus I like the slight difference in taste better. One must make sure they are cooking these pancakes at a lower heat, so the outsides don't scorch. I would make these again, my favorite keto pancake recipes after many keto pancakes recipes and not happy with them. Closest taste/texture to a real pancake.
Erin says
This recipe is a family favorite. So delicious and easy to make.
Anna says
Thank you for sharing your positive review, Erin!
Bee says
I just mixed with a spoon as I like the effect of little boobs of melted cheese in my pancakes. I added a little cinnamon and also potted any sugary toppings. Was great, fluffy, and crispy on the outside.
Anna says
Thanks for sharing, Bee!
ann says
very good and so easy to make.
Kelly Isbell says
These were so good!
Angela says
Absolutely delicious! To meet my health goals, I added a scoop of vanilla Isopure protein powder and a splash of water to thin that out. I can’t believe how good it was! Instead of syrup, I opted to reduce two handfuls of blueberries with a squeeze of 1/2 fresh lemon and a splash of water. I let it all boil and reduce to make a delicious topping for the pancakes. Sooo yummy
carole moschetti says
I love this recipe, the flavor is there! However, in their picture they show fluff pancakes, hasn’t ever happened for me and I’ve made them a dozen times. Trick to this???
Jessie Ann Shaffer says
do you think you can use chia egg as a replacement?
Monica says
Cook them at low eat and wait until they are completely done on one side before flipping them. It really worked for me the at the 1st try.
Monica says
Hi Anna,
Thank you very much for this recipe, it is truly outstanding! My very first time making them and came out delicious. I doubled the recipe, added two table spoons of psyllium husk as someone from the comments recommended and then added 4 table spoons of liquid. Pancakes were incredibly fluffy. Even my non keto/low carb husband love them. Anna, thank you very much for your hard work and for offering your great creations to the world. Greetings from Canada. Cпасибо/Tack
Anna says
Oh, your comment made me happy, Monica! Thank you for such positive feedback on my recipe!
Georgene Girouard says
Is there a substitute for cottage cheese? I can’t eat dairy.
Anna says
Unfortunately, no.
Helen Burkshire says
These were delicious! I forgot to add the salt and actually didn’t need it as the cottage cheese gave it enough salt taste. Will definitely make these again. Thanks.
Nicole says
These are the absolute best low carb pancakes (and waffles) I’ve ever tried!!! Can be sweet or savory even with pizza toppings!
Tatiana says
Wow!! Amazing, my new favorite pancakes
Raquel says
It’s delicious but hard to flip them…I didn’t add any sugar just a bit of honey.
I wonder what ingredient I could use to make the flipping a bit easier without burning it.
Thanks for the recipe
Roxy says
These turned out fluffy & delicious for me, definitely a keeper. I used a countertop Vitamix, pulsed it several times, noticed I needed to add extra liquid. Another reviewer suggested 1/4 cup water so I used that as a base line for adding almond milk until I got the "pancake" consistency. I also: a) added 1 tbs of psyllium powder to add fiber b) Substituted the butter in the recipe with Macadamia Oil (but I cooked them in butter in the pan). Set the range to "low" as recommended and they fluffed up. I yielded five 5" pancakes from this recipe. Thank you for this delicious recipe.
Ligia says
Love them
Arkelanor says
These were amazing. After a month of switching to keto, My kids complained that I do t make pancakes anymore so I found these and they drizzled it with maple syrup while I ate it with a few berries and a salad. Everyone was happy and I didn’t exceed my daily carbs in one meal. This is a keeper!
Anna says
Thank you for you sharing!
Heather says
I made these this morning as an alternative because the rest of my family was having traditional pancakes. I used sugar-free chocolate chips and my sons gobbled them up without question, which I love, since they're getting so much protein! My only comment is that it is hard to whip up with an immersion blender because it's not much liquid so I added a bit of water.
Anna says
It usually depends on the cottage cheese you use. Some cottage cheeses have more liquid in them, so there's no need to add water. However, if your pancake batter turned out too thick, adding some water was a good idea.
Lorie says
How to store leftovers and for how long?
Anna says
You can store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to four days.
Lorraine says
Truly a great recipe. I substituted maple extract for the syrup and cooked them low and slow in a nonstick skillet. Yummy!
Susan says
Hey, I was skeptical to try these, but I really did like them. I made a lot and only eat one pancake. Can I keep the mixture in the refrigerator for the next day?
Thank you
Susan
rosa says
adding psyllium husk, water and lemon zest made it just like regular fluffy pancakes. thanks for sharing the recipe.
Robyn says
The recipe is great and they do taste yummy and I have made them several times already but they never look edible! Any tips, this time I let the batter sit for 30 minutes before I cooked them in my caraway pan with avocado oil spray and they still fall apart, I can definitely only serve this to my husband and son but no one else! Any tips are appreciated! Thank you!
Rita says
These are the best!!! I did add 2T psyllium husk after reading comments. I made this in my mini dash waffle maker. Tastes just like ‘traditional’ waffles. It’s a keeper!
Anna says
Thank you for sharing!
Margo says
These pancakes are so delicious. They are tender and light. Be careful though, they brown quickly. Turn your fire down because this pancake mix doesn't behave like a regular pancake batter. You'll want to cook them gently so that they are done all the way through. I can eat these every day! Thank you for sharing!
Phyllis Walfie says
They were delicious. I put fresh Keto friendly blackberries on top.
Denise Simpson says
What I did a little different I used a mini waffle maker instead of frying pan because I had trouble turning over the pancakes. I also use monkfruit as a sweetener. Very good! (I also took a picture so I could post but there’s no room to post a picture)
Maria Henriquez says
this recipe is amazing, super healthy, tasty and soft
Carol B 🇦🇺 says
I have made this recipe before and loved it. This time I was looking for a recipe with hot cross bun flavour and thought, why don’t I add these spices to pancakes? Much easier than making the buns. They turned out light and fluffy and very tasty. I added 3/4 tsp cinnamon, 1/8 tsp powdered cloves, 1/2 tsp nutmeg. You could adjust this to your liking. My own little keto treat on Easter Sunday!
Caron says
I've been doing a low-carb, high-fat diet for about 8 months and eating the same breakfast almost daily. I wasn't feeling it this morning and searched keto pancakes and found these. I made them right away, ate 2 as a serving size and they hit the spot! I sprinkled on less than a tsp of Swirve confectioners sugar substitute and that's it. Delish! Will add this recipe to my rotation and look forward to breakfast the next 2 days!
Caron says
Forgot to add that I only used about a third of the sweetener in the recipe as well. I used erythritol.
