Ingredients

• 1 cup Almond flour
• 0.5 cup Whey protein powder (vanilla or plain)
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 2 large Eggs
• 0.5 cup Unsweetened almond milk
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons Coconut oil or butter (melted)
• 1 tablespoon Honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)
• 2 teaspoons Coconut oil or butter

Directions

Step 1

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine almond flour, whey protein powder, baking powder, and salt. Whisk together until well combined and set aside.

Step 2

In another bowl, beat the eggs. Once beaten, add almond milk, vanilla extract, melted coconut oil (or butter), and optional honey or maple syrup. Mix until the ingredients are fully combined.

Step 3

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Gently stir with a whisk or spatula until just combined and the batter is smooth. Avoid over-mixing as this can make the pancakes dense.

Step 4

Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with a small amount of coconut oil or butter.

Step 5

Pour about 1/4 cup of pancake batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until you see bubbles form on the top and the edges looking firm, around 2-3 minutes.

Step 6

Carefully flip the pancakes using a spatula and cook for another 2-3 minutes on the other side until golden brown.

Step 7

Repeat the cooking process with the remaining batter, adding more coconut oil or butter to the pan as needed to prevent sticking.

Step 8

Serve the pancakes warm with your choice of toppings such as fresh berries, sliced bananas, nut butter, or a drizzle of maple syrup.
