Low Carb Pancakes (Aebelskives)
Low Carb Pancakes
Ingredients
- 2 large eggs separated
- ½ cup almond flour
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon low-carb granular sweetener
- Pinch of salt
- ½ cup unsweetened nut milk
- 1 tablespoon butter or oil if dairy-free, melted
- Jam made with only fruit or low-carb chocolate chips for filling.
Instructions
- Separate the eggs and whip the egg whites with a mixer until soft peaks form.
- In a separate bowl, mix almond flour, baking powder, sweetener, and salt. Stir to combine.
- Add the dry ingredients to the egg yolks, then mix in nut milk and melted butter.
- Gently fold in one-third of the egg whites, then repeat until fully combined. Avoid overmixing.
- Preheat the aebleskiver pan over medium-low heat. Ensure it's fully heated before greasing.
- Fill each well ⅓ full, then add ½ teaspoon of jam or chocolate (if using). Cover with more batter, filling ⅔ full as they will expand.
- Cook for 1-2 minutes, then use a pointed tool like a chopstick or skewer to flip each pancake ball.
- Cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown. Remove from heat and serve warm.
Notes
- If skipping the filling, add 1 more tablespoon of sweetener for extra sweetness.
- Aebleskiver will slightly deflate as they cool due to their ingredients.
