Why These Ingredients Work
Almond flour replaces traditional flour while keeping the pancakes moist and low-carb. Eggs provide structure, while baking powder helps create fluffy, airy pancakes without gluten.
Ingredient Notes
- Almond Flour: Use finely blanched almond flour for the best texture.
- Sweetener: Powdered sweetener blends smoothly and avoids graininess.
- Milk: Unsweetened almond milk keeps carbs low, but coconut milk works too.
