Makes 14 pancakes
Ingredients
1 cup blanched almond flour
2 tbsp coconut flour
2 tbsp collagen peptides
1 tbsp powdered Lakanto sweetener (optional)
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp fine sea salt
4 large eggs
1/3 cup heavy cream (or coconut cream)
2 tbsp avocado oil
1 tsp cider vinegar
Ghee or additional avocado oil for cooking
How to Make It
- Preheat oven to 200ºF. In a large bowl, whisk together flours, collagen, sweetener (if using), baking powder, and salt, taking care to break up any lumps. In a small bowl, whisk eggs, cream, oil, and vinegar until well mixed. Stir egg mixture into the flour mixture, mixing well.
- Warm a griddle or large skillet over medium-low heat. Brush with ghee or oil. Drop pancake batter by 3 tablespoonfuls and cook until golden on the bottom, about 2 to 3 minutes. Carefully flip and cook until golden on other side and cooked through, about 1 minute longer. Transfer to a plate or baking sheet, and keep warm in the oven while you cook remaining pancakes.
