Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups blanched almond flour (185 grams)
  • 2 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 3 eggs at room temperature
  • ½ cup almond milk see notes
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 2 tablespoon ghee, butter or olive oil melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Method
 

  1. Mix the dry: Whisk almond flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt in a bowl.
    2 cups blanched almond flour, 2 teaspoon baking powder, ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon, ½ teaspoon salt
  2. Mix the wet: Beat the eggs, then stir in milk, honey, melted ghee, and vanilla.
    3 eggs, ½ cup almond milk, 1 tablespoon honey, 2 tablespoon ghee, butter or olive oil, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  3. Combine: Pour the wet mix into the dry and stir just until smooth. Add a splash more milk if the batter is too thick.
  4. Heat the pan: Warm a skillet (or set a griddle to 325°F) over medium-low heat. Lightly oil it. I like to use ghee as it doesn't turn brown like regular butter. It’s ready when a few drops of water sizzle and vanish right away.
  5. Cook: Scoop about ¼ cup batter per pancake. Flip once bubbles form and the edges look set. Cook until both sides are golden.
  6. Serve: Keep them warm in a low oven or eat right off the pan with your favorite toppings.

Notes

  • I’ve tested these pancakes with almond milk, regular milk, and buttermilk. They all work, but the buttermilk version turns out a bit thicker. Flavor is more or less same too. The real trick is managing the heat - turn it down slightly with each batch or lift the pan off the burner for a few seconds to keep it from getting too hot.
  • To make buttermilk from regular 2–4% milk, stir ½ cup milk with 1 ½ teaspoons fresh lemon juice or white vinegar. Let it rest for 5–10 minutes until it thickens and curdles slightly.
