  • Heat it Up: Lightly grease your non-stick pan or skillet and set it over medium heat.
  • Flip 'n Cook: Once hot, drop spoonfuls of batter onto the pan. Quickly cover with a lid. Cook for 3-4 minutes, or until edges bubble.

Notes

Tips for Pancake Perfection:
  • Blanched Almond Flour: Use blanched almond flour, not almond meal, for the fluffiest results.
  • Room Temperature Eggs: Room temperature eggs incorporate better into the batter, creating a lighter texture.
  • The Lid is Your Friend: Covering the pan helps trap steam and creates taller, fluffier pancakes.
  • Low and Slow: Cook over medium-low heat to ensure even cooking and prevent burning.
Storage & Reheating:
  • Fridge: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
  • Freezer: Freeze individual pancakes separated by parchment paper in a zip-top bag for up to 3 months.
  • Reheating: Microwave for 30 seconds or warm in a skillet over low heat.
