How to Make Vegan Almond Flour Pancakes

One of my favorite things about this recipe is how simple it is to whip together on the weekends for brunch or meal prep and eat later for a quick weekend breakfast.

• In separate bowls, mix your wet and dry ingredients. Then pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients and mix until combined.

• Addcoconut oil(or any neutral cooking oil with a high smoke point) to your nonstick pan over medium heat. Wait about 2-3 minutes or until your oil is hot. Next, pour a scoop of the pancake mix into the pan or use a 1/4 measuring cup to scoop the batter into the pan.

• Cook the pancake for 2-4 minutes on each side. Almond flour pancakes darken more quickly than traditional pancakes so be sure to watch them closely.
• Your pan is different from mine so reduce heat as needed. Continue until all the pancakes are complete. Serve with your favorite toppings and enjoy!

Why do my almond flour pancakes fall apart?

Tips for making Almond Flour Pancakes

• I highly recommend using anon-stick panto prevent the pancakes from sticking to the pan.
• It’s important toallow the batter to rest for about 5 minutesso all the ingredients can bind together and thicken.
• Use a variety of sweeteners for more complex flavors. In this recipe, I use cinnamon for a nice earthy flavor but feel free to swap it out with vanilla extract. These vegan pancakes are delicious as is butcan be made with additional add-ins like chocolate chips or berries (raspberries, blueberries, etc.).
• Use almond flour vs almond meal for this recipe.Almond flour is more finely ground and this helps to achieve light and fluffy pancakes.
