Ingredients
  

  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 oz (56 g) cream cheese, softened to room temperature
  • ½ cup (56 g / 1.98 oz) fine almond flour
  • 1 teaspoon (4 g / 0.14 oz) granulated sugar substitute (e.g., erythritol or monk fruit)
  • ½ teaspoon (2 g / 0.07 oz) ground cinnamon
  • Butter or coconut oil, for greasing the skillet
  • for Perfect Pancakes
  • Ensure your cream cheese is at room temperature. This is the most important step for achieving a smooth, lump-free batter.
  • These pancakes are more delicate than traditional ones. Use a thin, wide spatula and a confident, quick motion when flipping to prevent them from breaking.

Method
 

  1. Directions
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, eggs, granulated sweetener, and cinnamon.
  3. Using a hand mixer or a whisk, blend until the mixture is completely smooth and no lumps of cream cheese remain.
  4. Gently fold in the almond flour until it is just combined. Be careful not to overmix. Allow the batter to rest for 2-3 minutes; it will thicken slightly.
  5. Place a large non-stick skillet or griddle over medium-low heat.
  6. Add a pat of butter and allow it to melt and coat the cooking surface.
  7. Pour approximately ¼ of the batter onto the hot skillet to form one pancake. Use the back of a spoon to gently spread it into a circle about 4 inches in diameter.
  8. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the edges look dry and bubbles begin to appear on the surface.
  9. Carefully slide a thin spatula underneath the pancake and flip.
  10. Cook for another 1-2 minutes on the second side until golden brown.
  11. Transfer to a plate and repeat the process with the remaining batter, adding more butter to the skillet as needed.
