How to Make Easy Keto Coconut Flour Pancakes with Fresh Berries
- Prepare the batter: In a large bowl, combine coconut flour, baking powder, salt, stevia (if using), and cinnamon (if using). Whisk in eggs, almond milk, oil, and vanilla extract until smooth. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes to allow the coconut flour to absorb the liquid. Fold in the fresh berries gently.
- Cook the pancakes: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Lightly grease with oil. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown and crispy. Repeat with remaining batter.
Cook's Tips for Perfect Easy Keto Coconut Flour Pancakes with Fresh Berries
- Pro tip: For fluffier pancakes, separate the egg whites and fold them into the batter after it has rested. This will give the pancakes a lighter texture.
