Ingredients:
- 1 cup almond butter
- 3 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- Butter or oil for cooking
Instructions:
- Prepare Ingredients:
- Make sure the almond butter is at room temperature for easier mixing.
- Crack the eggs into a bowl and beat them lightly.
- Measure out the honey or maple syrup, if using.
- Get the vanilla extract, baking soda, and salt ready.
- Mix Wet Ingredients:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond butter, beaten eggs, honey or maple syrup (if using), and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
- Add Dry Ingredients:
- Sprinkle the baking soda and salt over the wet ingredients. Gently fold them into the batter until evenly distributed. Be careful not to overmix.
- Preheat Pan:
- Place a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add a small amount of butter or oil and let it melt, coating the surface evenly.
- Cook Pancakes:
- Spoon about 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot skillet for each pancake. Use the back of the spoon to spread the batter into a round shape if needed.
- Cook Until Bubbles Form:
- Cook the pancakes until bubbles form on the surface, and the edges look set. This usually takes about 2-3 minutes.
- Flip and Cook Other Side:
- Carefully flip each pancake using a spatula and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes on the other side, or until golden brown.
- Repeat:
- Repeat the process until all the batter is used, adding more butter or oil to the pan as needed.
- Serve:
- Serve the flourless almond butter pancakes warm with your favorite toppings, such as fresh berries, sliced bananas, a drizzle of honey, or a sprinkle of chopped nuts.
