Instructions for the Low-Carb Cherry Almond Pancake Pots

  • Preheate and prepare

Firstly start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease 4 small ramekins or an oven safe muffin tin with butter or oil any of these are fine, and place them on a baking sheet for easy handling.

Why ? Preheating ensures your pancake pots rise evenly, while greasing prevents sticking and helps develop a lightly crisp outer edge

  • Mix the Dry Ingredients

In a medium bowl, whisk together:

  • Almond flour
  • Coconut flour
  • Baking powder
  • Salt
  • Sweetener of choice (I used Stevie)

Tips: Sifting or whisking helps prevent lumps and gives your pancakenpot a finer crumb.

  • Combine the Wet Ingredients

In a separate bowl, beat the eggs , then add:

  • Almond milk
  • Melted butter or coconut oil
  • Vanilla and almond extracts

Why separate bowls? Combining wet and dry separately before mixing prevents over mixin, which can lead to a dence or gummy texture

  • Fold Everything Together

Gradually add in the dry mix to the wet mix, stirring gently until fully combined. The batter should be thicker than pancake batter but looser than cookie dough. Now fold in:

Note: If using frozen cherries, don’t thaw (meaning don’t leave It out to defrost) —just dust lightly in coconut flour to prevent them from bleeding into the batter.

Frequently asked Questions
