Keto Lupin Flour Pancake Recipe:
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup lupin flour
- 2 tablespoons coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- Pinch of salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk (or any preferred keto-friendly milk)
- 1 tablespoon melted coconut oil or butter
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Optional: Keto-friendly sweetener to taste
Instructions:
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the lupin flour, coconut flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt.
- In a separate bowl, beat the eggs. Add the almond milk, melted coconut oil or butter, and vanilla extract. If using a keto-friendly sweetener, add it now and mix well.
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until a smooth batter forms. Let the batter sit for a few minutes to allow the flours to absorb the liquid.
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium-low heat. Lightly grease it with additional coconut oil or butter if needed.
- Pour a small amount of batter onto the skillet to form each pancake. Use the back of a spoon to gently spread the batter into a round shape.
- Cook the pancakes for about 2-3 minutes on one side, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set.
- Carefully flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes on the other side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
- Repeat the process with the remaining batter, adjusting the heat as needed to prevent burning.
- Serve the Keto Lupin Flour Pancakes warm, topped with your favorite keto-friendly toppings such as berries, whipped cream, or sugar-free syrup.
