Ingredients

• 1 cup almond flour
• 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
• 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoon sea salt
• 3 large eggs
• 0.5 cup unsweetened almond milk
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons coconut oil
• 0.25 cup dark chocolate chips (optional)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and sea salt, and whisk together until well blended.

Step 2

In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, almond milk, honey, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Step 3

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix the batter.

Step 4

Fold in the dark chocolate chips if using, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Step 5

Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add about a teaspoon of coconut oil.

Step 6

Spoon 2-3 tablespoons of batter per pancake onto the skillet, spreading them gently with the back of a spoon to form small circles.

Step 7

Cook until bubbles begin to form on the surface of the pancakes, about 2-3 minutes, then flip them with a spatula.

Step 8

Continue cooking on the other side until golden brown and cooked through, about 2 more minutes.

Step 9

Transfer to a plate and keep warm while cooking the remaining pancake batter, adding more coconut oil to the skillet as needed.

Step 10

Serve the pancakes warm with additional honey or paleo-friendly chocolate syrup, if desired.
