Ingredients
Method
- In a medium mixing bowl, whisk the eggs, softened cream cheese, and vanilla bean paste until mostly smooth and well combined.
- Add the low carb sweetener, almond flour, salt, and baking powder to the bowl and whisk until a smooth, pourable batter forms.
- Let the batter rest at room temperature for 2 to 3 minutes to thicken slightly.
- Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat and add a thin layer of butter or oil to coat the bottom.
- Pour about 1/4 cup of batter per pancake into the hot skillet, leaving space between each portion for easy flipping.
- Cook each pancake for 2 to 3 minutes, until the edges look set and the bottom is golden.
- Carefully flip the pancakes and cook for another 1 to 2 minutes, until the centers feel just firm to the touch.
- Transfer cooked pancakes to a plate or a baking sheet in a low oven to keep warm while you finish the remaining batter.
- Repeat with the remaining batter, adding a little more butter or oil to the skillet as needed between batches.
- Serve warm with sugar free syrup or fresh berries, if desired.
Notes
- If the batter seems too thick, whisk in 1 to 2 tablespoons of water or unsweetened almond milk to loosen it slightly.
- If pancakes spread too much in the pan, lower the heat a bit and let the batter rest another minute before cooking the next batch.
