Almond Flour Pancakes

A high protein low carb pancake! This pancake needs a sweet topping for most kids to eat, but being so high in protein and low in sugar, you won't see a blood sugar spike.

Ingredients

  • 2 eggs
  • 1 1/2 cup almond flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder

Notes

For diabetics: The entire batch contains around 56 grams of carbs and 72 grams of protein.
Since my kids insist on chocolate or "syrup" ( we use raw honey) I love serving them these pancakes knowing that their overall sugar consumption won't be very high.
