Blueberries & Raspberries pancakes

Servings: 4 servings
Calories: 430

Ingredients
  

  • 0.25 cups (1.34 oz / 38g) fresh blueberries
  • 0.25 cups (1.06 oz / 30g) fresh raspberries
  • 0.5 tbsp (0.14 oz / 4g) chopped raw almonds
  • 0.5 cups (4.23 oz / 120ml) unsweetened almond milk
  • 8.82 oz (250g) fine-blanched almond flour
  • 2.0 units (approx. 2.1 oz / 60g) large egg whites
  • 1.0 tbsp (0.5 oz / 14g) organic coconut oil (for the skillet)
  • 0.5 tsp (0.1 oz / 3g) fine sea salt

Method
 

  1. In a medium glass mixing bowl, whisk together the 0.5 cups (120ml) almond milk and the 8.82 oz (250g) almond flour until a thick, consistent paste forms.
  2. Gently stir in the 2. 0 egg whites and 0.5 tsp (3g) salt into the flour mixture, ensuring the batter is smooth and well-incorporated.
  3. Carefully fold in the 0.25 cups (38g) blueberries, 0.25 cups (30g) raspberries, and 0.5 tbsp (4g) chopped almonds using a spatula so the berries don't burst.
  4. Place a large non-stick skillet over low heat and add 1.0 tbsp (14g) coconut oil, allowing it to melt and coat the surface evenly.
  5. Scoop the batter onto the skillet to form 3-inch pancakes; cook for 3-4 minutes per side or until golden brown and firm to the touch.
  6. Serve immediately while warm, perhaps with a drizzle of sugar-free syrup to keep these as your favorite low-carb pancakes.
  7. Patience is a Virtue (Low Heat Only): Almond flour contains a high oil content and no gluten, meaning it browns—and burns—much faster than wheat flour.
  8. Keep your skillet on low to medium-low heat to ensure the middle cooks through before the outside turns too dark.
  9. Don't Over-Mix the Berries: To prevent your batter from turning a muddy purple color, gently "fold" the berries in at the very end. If you’re using frozen berries, don’t thaw them first; add them directly to the batter cold to prevent bleeding.
  10. The "Rest" Period: Let your batter sit for about 5 minutes after mixing. This allows the almond flour to fully hydrate with the almond milk and egg whites, resulting in a sturdier pancake that won't fall apart when flipped.
    Size Matters: Since these are grain-free, they don't have the same structural integrity as traditional flapjacks. Keep your pancakes on the smaller side (about 3 inches in diameter) to make them much easier to flip without breaking.
