Ingredients

2 cups almond flour
1 tsp baking powder
3 tbsp granulated erythritol
1 ½ tsp cinnamon or Ceylon cinnamon
½ cup almond milk
¼ cup pumpkin puree
2 tbsp Greek yogurt
1 small egg, beaten
¼ cup toasted chopped hazelnuts

Instructions

Combine almond flour, baking powder, erythritol, and cinnamon in a bowl.
Whisk almond milk, pumpkin puree, Greek yogurt, and egg in a bowl.
Fold in the milk mixture into the flour mixture and stir until smooth.
Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Spray it lightly with cooking oil.

Pour ¼ cup of the batter into the skillet.
Cook the pancakes for 2 minutes per side.
Serve warm, topped with Greek yogurt and chopped hazelnuts.

Tips & Tricks

Let the pancakes cool just a little bit (around 5 minutes) before adding the toppings; you don’t want to end up with runny Greek yogurt. If you’d like to replicate the texture of regular wheat pancakes, feel free to substitute ¼ of the almond flour with coconut flour. Coconut flour is highly absorbent, so it will create fluffier and lighter pancakes.

Nutrition

These pancakes don’t provide just empty calories – far from it! They’re high in fiber at almost 3g per serving, which fantastic for gut health. They also provide almost 15% of the average daily recommended intake of protein. Almond flour gives these pancakes plenty of vitamin E, manganese, magnesium, copper, and antioxidants. And you’ll also get brain-benefiting B vitamins from eggs and Greek yogurt.
