The Best Keto PancakesPin itFollow us 148.4k

These low-carb pancakes are delicious and perfect for a Sunday breakfast. I made them with almond flour and coconut flour so even those of you who can't eat nuts can enjoy a fluffy keto pancake. They are really satisfying so you won't need to eat to many to feel full.

I like to serve mine with butter or a dollop of full-fat yogurt or whipped cream and a handful of berries or sugar-free chocolate sauce. To create perfectly shaped pancakes, you can use pancake molds like these.

Here are some of the toppings you can serve with your keto pancakes:

  • 1/4 cup full-fat yogurt (+2.4 g net carbs per serving)
  • 2 tbsp soured cream or crème fraîche (+ 0.9 g net carbs per serving)
  • 2 tbsp creamed coconut milk (+ 1.6 g net carbs per serving)
  • 1/2 cup whipped cream (+ 0.8 g net carbs per serving)
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 1 oz / 30 g berries (blackberries: + 1.2 g net carbs, raspberries: + 1.5 g net carbs, strawberries: + 1.6 g net carbs, blueberries: + 3.5 g net carbs per serving)
  • any of our sugar-free jams

I changed the way I ate in 2011, when I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s, an autoimmune disease that affects the thyroid. I had no energy, and I found it more and more difficult to maintain a healthy weight.

That’s when I decided to quit sugar, grains, and processed foods, and to start following a whole-foods-based ketogenic approach to food.

Yes, it's 2 mini pancakes (as per the macro values), or up to as many as you like. They are quite filling 😊

Hi Martina,
FINALLY I found a pancake recipe that didn’t fall apart and tasted amazing!  All I put on top was butter! I also ate them with a few blackberries.  I followed your recipe except I didn’t add any stevia and cut back on the sugar substitute (I used Monk fruit with Xylitol). I also added a sprinkle of cinnamon to the dry ingredients.  I cooked them on a low flame for about four minutes and they were very easy to flip.  I also used ghee in the recipe.  My pancakes were fluffy and delicious! Thanks so much! I bought your Mediterranean Keto cookbook and can’t wait to get it.  You’re recipes never fail!  You’re the best!❤️

Hi.
First I want to say I absolutely love your recipes and the website is beautiful.
I tried this pancakes and though they were much better then any other recipe I've tried, I had some problems. I substituted the coconut oil with butter and I used a scale as you recommended to measure pretty much everything. The batter was way too runny and I had to double the amount of almond flour and add 1/8 tsp of Xanthan gum just to get somewhat close to what you got in the picture.
Can you please tell me what I did wrong? yours look amazing and I am sure they taste so too.
p.s
I later weighed the almond flour and 3/4 of a cup was 90 grams and not 75 grams.

Martina @ KetoDiet 5 years ago # Reply
6/20/2019 10:44:31 PM

Hi Dana, thank you so much for your kind words! I think I can explain the difference in the almond flour - it really does vary for brands and some brands partially remove some of the fats to make the flour more powdery/fine. This then changes the density and weight per cup, plus it also makes the almond flour more absorbent.
The almond flour batter is indeed runny and if you don't use the molds I did, you will end up with much bigger and flatter pancakes. When it comes to coconut flour (image 3), it's a lot less runny (image 4). If you do like your pancake batter more doughy/waffle like, it's ok to add more almond flour OR I would personally add a few tablespoons of coconut flour (more absorbent so add a tablespoon at a time). I hope this helps!

I absolutely LOVE these pancakes. I’ve done both the almond flour and coconut flour versions and cooked them using the mounds. Every time, they turn out like the picture.... super fluffy and DELICIOUS. It’s my favourite recipe to curb a sweet craving. I pike all ingredients in my nutri ninja and hey presto..... DONE! So easy. I have them drizzled with some sukrin gold syrup and with either blueberries or raspberries. I always have a batch stored in my freezer bags ready to grab and shove in the toaster. THANK YOU so much for this recipe. The BEST pancake one I’ve found!!!

My pancakes are good and filling. I used coconut flour and have one biscuit round cutter so tried to use some cookie cutters. They should have been sprayed and tried to use some with less definition but just don't do it. I will buy more biscuit cutters and spray them first. My are red, white, and blue since the Fourth of July. The are good but no picture because of losing shape from a heart and outline of Ohio. But they are very edible. I had them with some fresh strawberries. Went well with coconut flour. Wish I had some more blueberries. Time for the Farmers Market.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but these are awful 😞 they look so good in the photos. But mine taste like a very hard fried egg mixed with flour. the texture is super chewy.
Do you have any suggestions on why they would be chewy???

Martina @ KetoDiet 7 years ago # Reply
5/21/2017 9:35:29 PM

I'm sorry to hear that. Which ingredients did you use? Almond flour or coconut flour? They should not be chewy at all.

Maya 8 years ago # Reply

I LOVE these.  Thank you for such an awesome recipe.  I use 15 drops of stevia only (no other added sweetener), do 1/2 cup almond flour and 1/4 cup coconut flour, and 2 tsp of baking powder instead of the cream of tartar-soda mix.  Keep a bunch in my fridge so I can take 2 for snacks at work.
Often times I use up my egg yolks in other recipes and end up with extra egg whites.  Do you think it would be fine in this recipe to sub 2 or 3 of the whole eggs for just 2 or 3 egg whites, or would it drastically change things?
Thank you!

Martina @ KetoDiet 8 years ago # Reply
1/27/2017 7:02:10 PM

Thank you Maya! I haven't tried it but I assume it will work with just egg whites. Using only egg whites will change the macros but you can compensate by using a high-fat topping such as coconut cream or full-fat yogurt. You may also have to add liquids (maybe almond milk), especially if you make the pancakes with coconut flour. Or you can use leftover egg whites to make keto bread: Bread Recipes
I hope this helps 😊

Are these to be incredible delicate? It was hard to flip them (and the pan side was dark). They were tall, and fluffy.
And they were delicious.

Martina @ KetoDiet 8 years ago # Reply
8/5/2016 1:22:22 AM

I'm glad you like them! I think they are fragile before they firm up. If you use the mini pancake molds, give it a few more minutes and cook over a low heat, as it takes time to cook through.

Good morning everyone,  I just finished making these pancakes and read all of the suggestions and reviews first.  I tweaked the recipe and used 1/2 c Almond meal and 1/4 of coconut meal.  That would help with them being too runny.  I used just vanilla extract and didn't put in the Stevia because the Swerve was enough.  I used 2 tsp of baking powder (Bob's of course)  Then I had to add a little water.  Maybe a couple tablespoons.  I fried them slow and they were the BEST Keto pancakes I have ever had. Thank you so much for the recipe.  I am almost 60 and just started low carb this week.  It's going awesome but time consuming.  Best regards

Looks yummy, but how light and fluffy are these?  I tried another recipe from a different site, but it was very similar and used almond flour.  The pancakes were very good, however, they were dense and not fluffy like regular pancakes, so we could only eat a little before it became "too much."  Just wondering if I did something wrong and if there is an ingredient in yours that makes the fluffiness comes out.  Thank you.

Martina @ KetoDiet 9 years ago # Reply
12/28/2015 3:56:31 PM

Hi Sophie, they are fluffy, especially if you use the pancake molds as they keep them thicker and fluffy. Even if you don't use them, they should not be too dense.

Just wanted to say that these are the best keto pancakes I have tried so far!  I made the almond flour version and the flavor and texture are perfect. I've tried several other pancake recipes but these are THE BEST. The ingredients don't look all that different from lots of other keto recipes but these are the only ones that have worked for me.  I like them better than the "regular" wheat version (especially since I don't get bloated or a headache afterwards). Thank you!

Hi Brie, yes, you can use the dough for a cake/ muffin if you like. I'd think that the temperature and times would be similar as in these:Keto Pumpkin Chia Muffins. Maybe less time, time actually depends on the shape. If it's thin, it will take a lot less.

Hi Martina, The pancakes in your photo look absolutely delicious. They're so much thicker than most other low-carb pancakes. Which flour did you use to make them--coconut or almond? I want mine to look just like yours, and I can't wait to make them this Saturday.

Martina @ KetoDiet 9 years ago # Reply
10/14/2015 6:38:29 PM

Thank you! That is because I used the pancake (round) molds that kept the pancakes thick and fluffy. If you don't use them, they will be much thinner. You can achieve great results with both options (both are photographed in this recipe). The coconut version is fluffier but I personally prefer the taste of almond pancakes slightly more than the coconut ones 😊

Martina @ KetoDiet 9 years ago # Reply
7/17/2015 12:22:02 AM

Yes, I think you can use just stevia instead or other sweeteners from this list: Complete Guide To Sweeteners on a Low-Carb Ketogenic Diet (maybe Xylitol instead). I'd think that if you use just stevia, it they have a bitter aftertaste but it depends on how much you'd use (15-20 drops per recipe should be fine).

Hi Martina, your pancakes look great! I would like to try it but I have no stevia extract. I have a combination of erythritol and stevia. How much of it would be the equivalent of 15/20 drops of stevia extract? Thank you for all these nice recipes.
I'm trying almost all of them as I would like to bring it to France. Keto-diet is not as known in my country as in yours.
PS: I tried your nutella mug cake. So good with a coconut cream on the top!

Hi Sophie, thank you, glad you enjoyed the mug cake! You can skip the stevia and use the sweetener you like - a combination of stevia and erythritol is great. I haven't used the one you have but I'd use 2-4 tablespoons (to taste) of it instead of the sweeteners in this recipe. Hope they turn out great! 😊

Hey Martina. Thanks for the recipe! I tried it, but my pancakes came out tasting very eggy; enough that my wife only had one spoonful and then tried really hard not to grimace. I know that's not much to go on, but any ideas what I could have done wrong/what I could do differently? I was thinking perhaps using one egg less, as the mixture came out really runny. Also, the almond flour I used is not very fine - it looks a bit like desiccated coconut in texture - could that have an effect? That aside, thanks for your site and app, they are both an invaluable resource.

Martina @ KetoDiet 9 years ago # Reply
6/3/2015 12:14:21 PM

Hi Luke, thank you for your kind words, I really appreciate that! I think it depends on your palate so if you think they tasted too eggy, you can use less eggs - maybe use just 2-3 eggs and add coconut milk, almond milk or more cream instead? My guess is that the pancakes will just be more crumbly but it should work. It can partially be caused by the almond flour - there are "defatted" and regular types but I still think you'll just need to use less eggs. Hope this helps!

Hi! What you mean by 1 serving? How many pancakes in one serving?

Martina @ KetoDiet 9 years ago # Reply
6/3/2015 12:07:45 PM

It depends, you can make one large pancake per serving or 2-3 small pancakes per serving. One serving is basically 1/4 of the recipe. These are, however, quite filling and I would eat just 1/2 serving .

Love the recipe. I am two weeks into the Keto lifestyle and starving for pancakes. These taste great, however my batter (mix) came out runny, any idea why? Is it the type of Almond Meal I am using? What brand of Almond Flour do you use and is it also available on Amazon? Your site and app are amazing a full of great information as well as delicious recipes. Bravo.

Martina @ KetoDiet 9 years ago # Reply
6/3/2015 12:05:03 PM

Hi Wendi, thank you! Yes, the batter is always quite runny with almond flour / meal. This doesn't happen if you use coconut flour but I personally prefer them with almond flour. I use pancake molds that allow me to create equally sized and pretty pancakes - that helps with runny batter 😊

Hi Martina, I am trying to add this recipe to my ketodiet app, which I purchased yesterday....and the first question is serving size, normally that would be one or two pancakes, but you only offer grams or oz, so what would you put in that box. How many grams, oz? Thanks a bunch, Linda Livingston

Hi Linda, you won't need to use ounces or grams for specifying the serving size. When you add any recipe from the blog to the app (this one is actually also in the app), it will offer you "servings" when adding to you planner. One serving is always defined by the recipe - e.g. this recipe makes 4 servings. One serving can be 1 large pancake or 2-3 small depending on how you make them 😊 The only time the app will offer ounces / grams is when you add simple foods such as ham, cheese, etc. to the Planner.

Hello! This receipe looks great! I don't have cream of tartar, is there any substitute I can use?

Yes, you can use gluten-free baking powder instead of baking soda and cream of tartar (see notes in recipe steps) 😊

These were great! And pretty! I am most often pancake-challenged and seldom have pretty pancakes. One serving was huge and, with some butter and raspberries and sugar-free syrup, made a big plate of breakfast. Best part: I have another serving for another morning!

Thank you Mickie, that's awesome! I agree, a full serving is too much for me too ... only my fiancé can eat a whole serving! 😊

I actually found the recipe, sorry still getting used to the app. I'm curious though what you would put for that on the app, should I want to add some of my own recipes, thanks

Hi Martina,
What brand of coconut flour do you use (in the UK)? My coconut flour is like fine desiccated coconut, rather than for example almond flour. My mixture ended up quite runny and so took a while to be cooked through enough to flip over. Still tasted great though 😊
Love your recipes, blog and iPad app by the way.
Thanks.

Hi Julie, thank you so much! I know what you mean. Some products labeled "coconut flour" are just very finely shredded coconut and don't behave the same way as fine coconut flour. I use organic coconut flour from Pink Sun which I buy on Amazon. Hope this helps 😊

Is there any ways to use almond milk or less oil in the actual pancake mix? If I took out the oil or replaced it with almond milk or coconut milk would it damage the consistency?

Yes, you can use almond milk or coconut milk instead. Or use half of the oil + almond / coconut milk. It may be less moist, perhaps a little on the dry side but it will work.

Hi Martina, I'm starting to love your recipes! However! I'm not sure if you are aware that the recipe here says "half a cup of coconut oil" but in the app I bought it says 2tbsp (I came in blog to ask you why is the mixture so stodgy- found my answer, the recipe differs). X

Thank you for noticing Monica! I just realised that the measure is 1/4 cup - not 1/2 cup. The grams / oz are accurate but the measure is wrong. The recipe in the app uses tablespoons but the amount is the same (4 tablespoons = 1/4 cup per 2 large servings). Thanks again!

See, to me, these thick pancakes look so much better than "light & fluffy" pancakes. They look delicious!
