Not a new years resolution but this month I decided to do a trial of the gluten free diet to see if it would help with some of my autoimmune issues. My husband has been doing a modified paleo diet and our family eats a pretty healthy diet, I was ready. So far I am 2 weeks down and I am doing ok. I have to admit though I have had some crazy cravings. Add to that it isn’t that much fun watching your family eat things that are so delicious when you can’t eat them also. So I have started searching for gluten free substitutes. There had to be a solution and there was. There are a wide variety of gluten free flours that you can by and I am slowly starting to experiment with them. First up has been Almond Flour. A year ago I made some Paleo bread for friends along with some macaroons but that is where my experience with almond flour ends. I was unsure if I could really turn almond flour into pancakes and if I did how they would turn out. I was happily surprised. These pancakes were quick and easy to make and delicious. They were denser than a typical pancake but that is to be expected with the almond flour. Try them for yourself! You are going to love these Gluten Free and Paleo Almond Flour Pancakes!
Quick Almond Flour Pancakes
- 1 cup almond flour
- ¼ cup water
- 2 eggs
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon oil, or as needed
- Whisk almond flour, water, eggs, maple syrup, and salt together in a bowl until batter is smooth.
- Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat; drop batter by large spoonfuls onto the griddle, and cook until bubbles form and the edges are dry, 3 to 5 minutes. Flip, and cook until browned on the other side, 3 to 5 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter.

I have friends who have gletun and dairy allergies, and I have tried doing gletun free baking before using rice flour and others things, and nothing turned out to my liking. These, however, are AMAZING. Almond flour is my new go-to gletun free! And, I made them dairy-free by subbing coconut oil for the butter-delicious! Thanks for sharing.
Hey the recipe has no butter. Or am I missing something
