Ingredients

• 1 cup almond flour
• 2 tablespoons coconut flour
• 3 large eggs
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 0.5 cup water
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional, for sweet variation)
• 0 for cooking olive oil spray or additional butter

Directions

Step 1

In a large bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, and salt. Mix well to ensure the flours are evenly distributed.

Step 2

In a separate bowl, beat the eggs together with the heavy cream and water until well combined.

Step 3

Melt the butter in a small saucepan or microwave and allow it to cool slightly.

Step 4

Gradually add the melted butter into the egg mixture, whisking constantly to incorporate.

Step 5

Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until the batter is smooth and free of lumps. If making a sweet version of Palacsinta, add vanilla extract at this stage.

Step 6

Lightly grease a non-stick frying pan with olive oil spray or a small amount of butter and place over medium heat.

Step 7

Pour approximately 1/4 cup of the batter into the pan, tilting the pan in a circular motion to spread the batter evenly to a thin round layer.

Step 8

Cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until the edges start to lift and the bottom is golden brown and set. Flip carefully using a spatula and cook the other side for an additional 1-2 minutes.

Step 9

Transfer the cooked Palacsinta to a plate and cover to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter.

Step 10

Serve warm with your choice of filling. For a sweet Palacsinta, consider fillings like sweetened cream cheese, berries, or sugar-free jam. For a savory option, use fillings such as spinach and feta or cream cheese and smoked salmon.
