Ingredients
- 1 cup Ricotta cheese
- 0.5 cup Almond flour
- 3 Eggs
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter or coconut oil (for cooking)
- 0 Optional: sugar-free syrup or berries for serving
Directions
Step 1
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the ricotta cheese, almond flour, eggs, baking powder, vanilla extract, and salt.
Step 2
Whisk the ingredients together until well combined and the mixture is smooth. It will be slightly thicker than traditional pancake batter.
Step 3
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add a tablespoon of butter or coconut oil.
Step 4
Once the butter is melted and the pan is hot, spoon about 2 tablespoons of batter per pancake onto the skillet.
Step 5
Cook the pancakes for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Adjust the heat if necessary to prevent burning.
Step 6
Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate and cover with a clean kitchen towel to keep them warm.
Step 7
Repeat the process with the remaining batter, adding more butter or coconut oil to the pan as needed.
Step 8
Serve the pancakes warm with sugar-free syrup, fresh berries, or your choice of toppings.
