Keto Easy Pancakes

108 ratings

This easy Keto pancake recipe is simply amazing and perfect for your morning! It will quickly become a go-to in your low carb breakfast recipes arsenal. There are only 3 ingredients that make up the pancakes. The mixture is whisked together and allowed to sit so the psyllium husk powder thickens the eggs. You can find psyllium husk powder in the natural section at your grocery store. Check gluten-free aisles or special the diet section in the baking aisle. You should keep the pancakes on the smaller side to allow you to flip them easily. A 1-oz ladle for each pancake is perfect. Serve with lightly sweetened whipped cream or berries on the side. One serving is 3, 1-oz pancakes.

What kind of syrup should I use?

I am partial to Lakanto Maple Syrup, but there are other sugar-free syrups on the market. Be sure to look for syrups that contain erythritol, monk fruit, or stevia. These types of sweeteners do not trick your body into producing insulin.

What other recipe variations can I do?

Another version of this recipe can be made by using chocolate chips to stud each pancake. Before you flip them and after they have cooked slightly, simply top them with a few dark chocolate chips. The same technique applies to diced strawberries or whole blueberries.

Tips for a fluffier pancake

Be sure to allow the pancakes to rise after flipping them over. You will visually see this occur. Do not be tempted to press down on them as this will flatten the air bubbles and result in a dense pancake. It’s the air bubbles that make a pancake fluffy and airy!

Recipe Steps

steps 4

40 min

  • Step 1

    Whisk together the eggs, cottage cheese and psyllium husk powder. Allow the mixture to sit to the side for 5-10 minutes to let the powder thicken. Meanwhile, you can begin heating a large non-stick skillet over medium heat on your stove.
    Step 1
  • Step 2

    Add only 1 ½ t avocado oil to the skillet to melt and get hot. Add in the pancake batter using a 1 oz ladle or scoop. Cook on the first side for 2-3 minutes until the bottom is nice and browned and the pancakes are sturdy enough to flip. Flip the pancakes and cook for another minute or until cooked through.
    Step 2
  • Step 3

    Repeat with the remaining batter adding 1 ½ teaspoon of oil for each batch. In the meantime, you can whip cold heavy cream in a mixer until frothy. Add in the stevia drops and whip until it forms a stiff peak.
    Step 3
  • Step 4

    One serving of pancakes is 3, 1-oz pieces. Serve each set of 3 pancakes with a spoonful of whipped cream and ¼-cup of mixed berries. Mixed berries include blueberries, chopped strawberries, and raspberries.

        A serving is really only one medium sized pancake. And I added 1 tsp. coconut flour to help with consistency. Tasty.

          This is a great fakery food that keeps you craving sweets to keep you on a proper yo-yo diet.

          Mine didn't come out as pretty as the picture, but these were surprisingly good! Loved them with the whipped cream and fresh blueberries. I may try the leftovers as a savory meal stacked with ham, cheese and tomato.

            I used almond flour, softened cream cheese and eggs topped with butter pad, blueberries and sugar free maple syrup.

            Really nice taste! I didn't want to add the psyllium powder so instead I added almond flour 😍

              The psylium is a fiber which is needed in the keto...I usuali try not to change the flavours even though sometimes it don't like some recipes

            I absolutely love these. They are so easy to make and give the sweet kick I’m looking for.

              Super easy and my husband likes them! Although, if you want the three pancakes per serving, they’ll be the size of silver dollars. I didn’t make the whipped cream topping, instead I used 2T of heavy canned whip cream, I also omitted the fruit and used zero everything raspberry spread.

                Do you count the cream and avocado separately or is everything included in the 310 calories?

                I used cream cheese instead of cottage cheese it was amazing and I’m sure cream cheese has less carbs!?!

                  I decided to make crêpes instead. I only used 2 eggs and added 1/2 tsp of vanilla extract, the 3 Stevia drops, and 1/4 tsp of baking powder. I didn't end up making the cream but tastes wonderful and easy to make. I waited about 5 minutes for the batter to thicken a bit. For the first crêpe, I forgot to add butter to the pan (didn't use oil) and it stuck a bit. Worked perfectly for the following 2 crêpes. Will definitely be making this recipe again and try making regular pancakes next time.

                    So good! Scaled down recipe to 1 serving and ended up using almost a full tablespoon of whole psyllium husk powder to get the consistency I wanted. Cooked in butter instead of oil, omitted fruit and instead topped w/ SF syrup and dollops of whipped cream. Really more like French toast

                      Way too runny/eggy with the cottage cheese melting and breaking up any hold the mixture had. I added almond flour in after noticing my first batch were basically glorified lumps of scrambled eggs. Almond flour gave it more bite, fluff and way less of an egg in your face taste. Definitely check the consistency before cooking. If you reckon it is too runny, then it definitely wont hold together on the pan. I had to learn the hard way as psyllium is not my go to binder for pancakes and I wanted to stick to the recipe.

                      I substituted cottage cheese for ricotta. Reduced eggs to 2, added flax seeds, coconut flour, and baking powder. Tastes really good but didn't flip real well.
