Gluten-Free Almond and Blueberry Pancakes
 
 
Author:
Recipe type: Breakfast/Brunch
Serves: 4
Ingredients
  • 1 and ¾ cups almond flour
  • 1 teaspoon gluten-free baking powder (make sure there's no wheat starch)
  • ½ teaspoon table salt
  • 2 tablespoons raw honey
  • ¾ cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil, plus more for cooking pancakes and almonds
  • 2 large eggs
  • ½ cup fresh blueberries, plus more for garnish
  • ⅓ cup chopped almonds
  • Maple syrup (optional)
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 200 degrees; have a baking sheet ready to keep cooked pancakes warm in the oven.
  2. Mix the dry ingredients (almond flour, baking powder and salt) in a small bowl.
  3. Mix the wet ingredients (milk, honey, coconut oil, and egg) in a large bowl. Whisk until combined.
  4. Slowly add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, mixing gently until ingredients are just combined. Don't over mix.
  5. Gently stir in the blueberries.
  6. Heat a large skillet (nonstick or cast-iron) or griddle over medium heat. Fold a sheet of paper towel in half, and moisten with coconut oil; carefully rub skillet with oiled paper towel.
  7. Pour ¼ cup batter into the skillet. You should be able to fit 3-4 pancakes in a large skillet.
  8. Cook for 3-4 minutes or until pancakes are firm enough to flip. Flip carefully with a thin spatula, and cook until browned on the underside, one minute more (gluten-free pancakes are more fragile than regular wheat flour pancakes so be extra careful with the flip).
  9. Transfer cooked pancakes to a baking sheet or platter; cover loosely with aluminum foil, and keep warm in oven. Continue with more coconut oil and remaining batter. (You'll have 10-12 pancakes.)
  10. Add one final teaspoon of coconut oil to the skillet. Add the chopped almonds and cook, stirring frequently, for 2-3 minutes, or until fragrant and lightly toasted.
  11. Serve pancakes warm and top with more blueberries, toasted almonds, and maple syrup, if desired.
