Favorite Sunday breakfast — pancakes.
Whipping up pancakes for breakfast and the smell was slowly KILLING me.
Slathered it with butter and hit it with a dab of (sugar free) syrup.
Pancakes with butter and regular syrup and set them down without saying a word.
These pancakes are a great healthier option to regular pancakes. They are gluten free, keto friendly and low carb.
You can make them with regular sugar for the kids and they are still a lot healthier than regular all purpose flour pancakes would be.
You have to give these Low Carb Pancakes a try! I promise they taste like actual pancakes!

I am not a dietician, I just share recipes, so please calculate your own nutritional information using the nutrition labels on your products used. However, with the brands I used, an entire batch of these pancakes came out to 5 net carbs. *update June 22nd, 2017, these appear to be closer to 6 net carbs if you use Philadelphia cream cheese, Blue Diamond Almond Flour and a sugar free vanilla extract. However, again, I am not here to debate the nutrition, I am only here to share the recipe! Please calculate your own nutrition facts.
Make sure you have a good super fine almond flour, not almond meal. Almond flour is blanched almonds ground into a super fine flour.
You can see the difference because almond meal has dark brown flakes and almond flour is a solid light color. This is my favorite almond flour*, I but it at Costco.
