Ingredients
  

Keto Pancakes

  • 1/2 cup finely ground almond flour
  • 2 tablespoons coconut flour
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/3 cup softened cream cheese
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 tablespoon keto-friendly granulated sweetener
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Sausage & Serving

  • 1 pound turkey breakfast sausage
  • 1 tablespoon butter for cooking
  • 1/4 cup sugar-free maple syrup for serving

Instructions
 

  • Divide the turkey sausage into 8 equal portions and shape each portion into a small patty approximately 4 inches wide. Cook the patties in a skillet over medium heat until browned on both sides and fully cooked through, then transfer them to a plate and keep warm.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, softened cream cheese, unsweetened almond milk, keto-friendly sweetener, and vanilla extract until mostly smooth and well combined.
  • Add the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt to the wet ingredients. Stir gently until a thick but pourable pancake batter forms.
  • Let the batter rest for 2 to 3 minutes so the coconut flour can absorb some of the moisture. If the batter becomes excessively thick, add a small splash of unsweetened almond milk and stir gently.
  • Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-low to medium heat and add a small amount of butter. Once melted, spoon approximately 2 tablespoons of batter into the skillet for each pancake, keeping the pancakes around 4 inches wide.
  • Cook the pancakes until the edges look set and bubbles begin forming across the surface, about 2 to 3 minutes. Carefully slide a spatula underneath and flip each pancake, then cook the second side for another 1 to 2 minutes or until golden and cooked through.
  • Continue cooking the remaining batter, adding a small amount of butter to the skillet as needed. Keep the pancakes approximately the same size so the finished stacks are easy to assemble.
  • To assemble each stack, place one pancake on a plate, top it with a cooked turkey sausage patty, add another pancake, then another sausage patty, and finish with a third pancake. Repeat with the remaining ingredients to create four stacks.
  • Drizzle each stack with sugar-free maple syrup and add a small pat of butter or a sprinkle of cinnamon if desired. Serve immediately while the pancakes and sausage are warm.
