    If you've tried my almond flour peanut butter cookies, you'll know how much I like this healthy flour replacement. So, how do you make an amazing egg free pancake with almond flour? I'll show you the secret to uber fluffy pancakes that are:

    • Healthy
    • Easy To Make
    • Gluten Free
    • Dairy Free
    • Egg Free
    • Vegan
    • No bananas in sight!

    Now, let's have a look at all the reasons almond flour is so good for you.

    What Are The Health Benefits Of Almond Flour?

    almond flour going into a bowl

    Almond flour is rich in:

    • Manganese: Helps the body clot blood effectively, allowing it to heal from injuries.
    • Magnesium: Magnesium has a calming effect and can help control sugar levels.
    • Monosaturated Fats: Monosaturated fats help control cholesterol level, which means it's a major factor in heart health.
    • Vitamin E: Vitamin E helps maintain healthy eyes and skin, and it boosts the bodies immune system.
    • Protein: Almond flour is surprisingly high in protein (21% by weight.)

    Plus, almond flour is naturally:

    • Gluten Free
    • Paleo Friendly (if not used in combination with grain based flours.)
    • Low on the glycemic index.
    • Low In carbs and high in fiber.
    • vegan buttermilk
    • pancakes with almond flour vegan.

    How To Make Almond Flour Pancakes

    • Firstly, make your vegan buttermilk by combining the almond milk with the apple cider vinegar. Vegan buttermilk makes a great egg replacer! Set this aside for about 10 minutes and allow it to curdle.
    • Sift your dry ingredients (including your almond flour) into a large bowl. I know it's tempting to skip this step, but it really does make a difference to the fluffiness and light texture of your pancakes.
    • Now add your vanilla to the vegan buttermilk and pour the wet ingredients into the bowl. Stir gently, being careful not to over, mix or your pancakes will be thick and dense.
    • Heat your vegan butter in a non-stick fry pan. Add the batter to the pan ยผ cup at a time . Allow the pancakes to cook for 1-2 minutes on each side. Almond flour pancakes darken quicker than wheat flour pancakes.
    • Serve with maple syrup and whatever toppings you fancy. Enjoy!

    Variations On Pancakes With Almond Flour

    Feel free to get creative and add fruits, nuts and spices that appeal to you. Here's a few suggestions:

    • Add a little cinnamon and serve with applesauce.
    • Try this Vegan Caramel Sauce by Who Needs Salad.
    • Top with bananas.
    • Add a handful of dark chocolate chips. Yummy! For more information on choosing a brand of chocolate chips that are suitable for vegans, check out my article " Are Chocolate Chips Vegan?"
    • Make almond flour waffles with this recipe. Just be sure to grease your waffle iron well.
    • Make apple pie almond flour pancakes by sauteing one peeled and chopped apple in a bit of vegan butter. Sprinkle with cinnamon and nutmeg and tip them into the batter. Voila! Apple almond flour pancakes!
    • Blueberries are always a winner.
    • Serve with a side of my popular Air Fryer Breakfast Potatoes.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Are almond flour pancakes keto?

    This recipe is not suitable for a koto diet unless you replace the sugar with erythritol and the gluten free flour with an equal amount of almond flour.

    How do you store almond flour?

    Almond flour needs to be kept in a cool dark place. If the package is unopened, it's fine to store it in a cupboard. However, once the package is opened, you should store it in the refrigerator (for 3-6 months) or freezer for (6-12 months.)

    Does almond flour go bad?

    Yes, like all nut flours, almond flour contains oils that can go rancid. If your almond flour doesn't smell nutty and fresh or contains mold, do not use it.

        Hi Kathi, What type of gluten free flour did you use? I find that using a blend with xnathan gum really helps a lot. Bob's Red Mill makes a great gluten free blend.

      Does the flour has to be gluten free? Can it just be organic all purpose flour?
      Also, do you allow the batter to rest or only the โ€œbuttermilkโ€ mixture.

      Thank you!

        Hi Luz! No, the gluten free flour can easily be replaced with all purpose flour in the same ratio. The batter doesn't need to rest, ony the vegan buttermilk mixture. It takes about 5 minutes for the vinegar and milk to form a "buttermilk." Hope that helps and that you like the pancakes!

      Can we prepare the batter overnight ? For how long does it stay fresh ?

      • Keri Bevan

        June 29, 2022 at 10:45 am

        Hi Sakiena, I always recommend making pancakes fresh and not refrigerating the batter. This is because the leavening agent (baking powder) starts working straight away. The longer you leave the batter, the more ineffective it becomes, so they won't be nearly as fluffy. I do make these pancakes ahead and freeze them though! Hope that helps you.

      lI had to stop eating eggs and was craving pancakes - these are SO fluffy, and really good. I didn't have quite enough of the gluten-free flour (used Trader Joe's) but did have some TJs Cassava/Cauliflower "flour" and used that for about 1/4 of the GF flour, and they were very fluffy and very good. I have one question - how many servings in the whole receipe? I ended up with 14 pancakes and need to know as I count my macros.

        Hi Ingrid, That's a great tip on the cassava/cauliflower flour. Thank you for sharing that. I calculated the nutritional information listed beneeth the recipe on 6 very large pancakes. I hope that helps, and I'm glad you liked the recipe!x

        I have the worst experience with gluten free egg free pancakes. This one has come closest though. They rise GREAT, crispy edges. But still too wet in the middle. Followed the recipe to a T. Oh and I noticed I have to let them cook much longer than 2 min each side. What am I doing wrong/ overlooking?

          Hi Irena, Almond flour is a bit more dense than all purpose flour, so try putting a lid over your pan for a minute or so, so the steam from the cooking pancake fully cooks the inside. Sometimes I even add a teaspoon of water to the pan, and then quickly put the lid on.
