Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1 tablespoon coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 2 scoops vanilla protein powder (paleo-friendly)
- 3 large eggs
- 0.5 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil for cooking
Directions
Step 1
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, salt, and vanilla protein powder.
Step 2
In another bowl, beat the eggs until they are light and frothy.
Step 3
Add the unsweetened almond milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract to the beaten eggs, and mix well.
Step 4
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. The batter should be thick but pourable.
Step 5
Heat a large non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add the coconut oil. Allow it to melt and coat the surface evenly.
Step 6
Use a 1/4 cup measuring cup to pour the batter onto the skillet, forming pancakes. Cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set.
Step 7
Carefully flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.
Step 8
Transfer the pancakes to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter, adding more coconut oil as needed.
Step 9
Serve warm with your choice of paleo-friendly toppings such as fresh berries or additional maple syrup.
