Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Almond flour
• 1 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 3 large Eggs
• 0.5 cups Unsweetened almond milk (or preferred milk alternative)
• 1 tablespoons Honey (or maple syrup)
• 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 1 tablespoons Lemon zest
• 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
• 1 tablespoons Coconut oil or butter (for cooking)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined.

Step 2

In a separate medium bowl, beat the eggs lightly. Then add almond milk, honey, vanilla extract, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Whisk until fully incorporated.

Step 3

Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until a smooth batter forms. Be careful not to overmix; it's okay if there are small lumps.

Step 4

Heat a non-stick skillet or flat griddle over medium-low heat. Add a small amount of coconut oil or butter, letting it melt and coat the surface.

Step 5

Using a 1/4 cup measuring cup, pour pancake batter onto the heated skillet. Spread slightly into a round shape, if necessary.

Step 6

Cook until bubbles form on the surface of the pancake and the edges appear set, about 2-3 minutes. Carefully flip the pancake and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown.

Step 7

Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet lightly between batches if needed.

Step 8

Serve warm with your favorite toppings, such as fresh berries, a drizzle of honey, or a dollop of yogurt.
