1.5 cups almond flour Shop
0.5 cup gluten-free all-purpose flour blend Shop
1 tsp gluten-free baking powder Shop
0.5 tsp salt
2 large eggs
1.25 cups milk
2 tbsp melted butter or neutral oil
1 tsp pure vanilla extract Shop

Instructions

1 In a large bowl, whisk together the almond flour, gluten-free all-purpose flour blend, gluten-free baking powder, and salt until well combined and no lumps remain. This ensures an even distribution of leavening and flavor.
2 In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the eggs until lightly beaten, then stir in the milk, melted butter or oil, and pure vanilla extract until smooth. This creates the liquid base for your pancake batter.
3 Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Gently fold them together using a spatula until just combined; a few small lumps are perfectly fine and indicate you haven't overmixed. Overmixing can lead to tough pancakes.
4 Heat a lightly oiled griddle or non-stick skillet over medium heat until a drop of water sizzles and evaporates quickly. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter per pancake onto the hot surface. Cook for about 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and bubbles appear on the surface before flipping.
5 Serve the warm gluten-free almond flour pancakes immediately with your favorite toppings like fresh berries, maple syrup, or a dollop of yogurt. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.

Tips & Notes

If the pancakes brown too fast, lower the heat to medium-low. Almond flour scorches before the center sets.
Keep them small, about 1/4 cup each, as step 4 says. Almond flour pancakes are fragile and hard to flip when large.
Wait until the edges look dry and set before flipping. Bubbles appear on top more slowly than with ordinary pancakes.
