Ingredients
Scale
- ½ cup cottage cheese (full-fat for keto)
- 3 large eggs
- ¼ cup almond flour
- 1 tablespoon coconut flour
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
- 1–2 teaspoons sweetener of choice (erythritol or stevia)
- Pinch of salt
- Butter or coconut oil, for cooking
Instructions
Step 1: Blend the Ingredients
- In a blender or food processor, combine the cottage cheese, eggs, almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, vanilla extract, sweetener, and salt.
- Blend until smooth. If the batter is too thick, add a splash of water or unsweetened almond milk.
Step 2: Preheat the Skillet
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat.
- Add a small amount of butter or coconut oil to the skillet to prevent sticking.
Step 3: Cook the Pancakes
- Pour about ¼ cup of batter per pancake onto the skillet.
- Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.
- Flip the pancakes and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
Step 4: Serve and Enjoy
- Stack the pancakes on a plate and serve warm.
- Top with your favorite keto-friendly toppings like berries, sugar-free syrup, nuts, or whipped cream.
Notes
- Blend Well: Blending the batter ensures a smooth texture without any lumps of cottage cheese.
- Adjust Thickness: If the batter is too thick, thin it out with a splash of water or unsweetened almond milk.
- Use Non-Stick Skillet: This prevents the pancakes from sticking and makes flipping easier.
- Don’t Overcook: Cook on medium heat to prevent burning and ensure even cooking.
