Gluten-Free Almond Flour Pancakes Recipe

Start your day with a stack of fluffy, delicious, and gluten-free almond flour pancakes! This recipe is a game-changer for anyone avoiding gluten or simply looking for a healthier pancake option. Almond flour adds a naturally sweet, nutty flavor and provides a good source of protein and healthy fats. These pancakes are surprisingly easy to make and require minimal ingredients.

Why Almond Flour Pancakes?

Traditional pancake recipes rely on wheat flour, which is a no-go for those with gluten sensitivities or celiac disease. Almond flour offers a fantastic alternative that’s not only gluten-free but also lower in carbohydrates and higher in nutrients. Plus, it lends a delightful flavor that’s hard to resist!

Ingredients:

• 1 cup almond flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 tablespoon granulated sugar (or your preferred sweetener)
• 1 large egg
• 1 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
• 2 tablespoons melted butter or coconut oil
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions:

1. In a large bowl, whisk together the almond flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, melted butter or coconut oil, and vanilla extract.
3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix. A few lumps are okay.
4. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium heat.
5. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot griddle for each pancake.
6. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
7. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings, such as maple syrup, fresh fruit, or whipped cream.

Tips and Variations:

• For extra fluffy pancakes, let the batter sit for 5-10 minutes before cooking.
• Add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the batter for a warm, spiced flavor.
• Stir in chocolate chips, blueberries, or other fruits for added flavor and texture.
• Use a non-dairy milk alternative like almond milk or oat milk for a dairy-free option.
