Low Carb Pancakes for the Ketogenic Diet Recipes

Over the years, I have discovered that I am best able to maintain my weight when I stick to a low carb diet. Many women are discovering the same thing applies to them and they’re having success with a ketogenic diet.

I have found that breakfast is a meal so many moms struggle with when trying to stick to a ketogenic diet. Fortunately you can have traditional breakfast foods like pancakes on the ketogenic diet – if you know how to make them.

If you’ve had banana pancakes, low carb pancakes use a similar sort of method. Eggs are used as the binder, but cream cheese is used instead of bananas (too many carbs in bananas!). I find that you do need to add a bit of stevia to get a sweet taste. Many people also add cinnamon and vanilla extract.

This recipe will make enough pancakes for 3 people to have 2 pancakes each. You can also make them, then refrigerate them and heat them up in the morning for breakfast by quickly warming them on a pan. I haven’t tried freezing them yet.

Ingredients

• 4 ounces lactose-free cream cheese organic preferred
• 4  organic pastured eggs
• 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• 3 tablespoons coconut flour
• 1/4 teaspoon powdered stevia
• Pastured butter or ghee

Instructions

1. Put all of your ingredients except for the butter/ghee into a blender, then blend until the mixture is smooth.
2. Pour the batter directly from the blender’s pitcher into your frying pan (that has been both pre-heated and greased with butter).
3. Once bubbles appear evenly across your low carb pancake, flip and cook until the other side is cooked.
