Instructions
- In a blender or food processor, combine the softened cream cheese, eggs, almond flour, baking powder, vanilla extract, and sweetener. Blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add a small amount of butter or coconut oil to coat the surface.
- Pour about 1/4 cup of the pancake batter onto the skillet. Gently spread it into a circular shape using the back of a spoon or a spatula.
- Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until you see bubbles forming on the surface of the pancake and the edges begin to set.
- Carefully flip the pancake and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
- Repeat the process with the remaining batter, adding more butter or coconut oil to the skillet as needed.
- Serve warm with sugar-free syrup and fresh berries on top, if desired.
Tips
- For an extra flavor boost, try adding a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the batter.
- If you prefer a sweeter pancake, adjust the amount of sweetener to your taste.
