How to Make Keto Almond Flour Pancakes

Separate the eggs. Whip the egg whites until you get soft peaks and set aside.

In another bowl, add the egg yolks, Swerve, vanilla and the heavy cream.  Mix using a hand mixer for about 2 minutes.

Add the egg whites in and mix briefly.

In a separate bowl, add the almond flour, oat fiber and baking powder.

Whisk the dry ingredients until well combined.

Add the dry ingredients into the wet and mix until combined.

Batter should be a little loose, but not too runny.  Add a little more heavy cream, if needed.

Add some avocado oil, coconut oil or clarified butter/ghee to a skillet on low heat and add the pancake batter to make pancakes of about 3-4” in diameter.  Place 4-5 blueberries on top of each pancake, gently pressing them into the batter.

Cook them on low heat with a lid on for a few minutes on each side, this is key!

Once you see them start to puff up, tiny bubbles will form and the bottoms will start browning, it's time to flip them!

If you want a little extra decadence, serve these with a big dollop of sweetened whip cream right on top.

Or serve with butter and/or Sugar-Free Maple Syrup and enjoy!

You can certainly serve with your favorite sugar-free syrup, but if you can find blueberries in peak season they are sweet enough alone!

What is Oat Fiber? Is Oat Fiber Keto?

Oat Fiber is made from grinding the outer husks of oats. How healthy is oat fiber? It's pure insoluble fiber, which doesn't dissolve in water and isn't broken down in the digestive tract, so it has zero net carbs and is perfect for a Keto Diet. It helps give a more traditional texture and that's why I use it so often. Check out all the Keto Oat Fiber Recipes you can make!

What is a Substitute for Oat Fiber?

To get the best results, it's best to use oat fiber if you can. If you're unable to find it, try a combination of psyllium husk powder and coconut flour. Since both are very absorbent, you might have to add more liquid.
