All Things Keto Pancakes
CREAM CHEESE & COCONUT FLOUR PANCAKES AND WAFFLES
When I say that I have made Keto Pancakes 1 million times, I’m only slightly exaggerating. My daughter loves this recipe and after heeding her request for these pancakes countless times, I think its safe to say we are now experts on Keto Pancakes. We even make this recipe on Christmas Morning and decorate them like reindeers.
It all started with one Recipe, Cream Cheese and Coconut Flour Pancakes. I started experimenting with Keto Pancakes back in the beginning of 2017 and I liked this recipe so much I included it in my first cookbook, The Easy 5-Ingredient Ketogenic Diet Cookbook.
This cream cheese and coconut flour recipe makes soft and fluffy pancakes that taste and feel almost exactly like the real thing. I top them with Vital Farms grass fed butter and sugar-free maple syrup. They have 18g of protein in each serving and only 8g of net carbs, meaning you can fit these pancakes nicely into your macros with out having to worry.
After solidifying this basic recipe, I started to play with different variations. I made a Pancake Cake that can be baked in the oven instead of on the griddle. I added cinnamon and vanilla extract, chocolate chips and different Sugar Free Syrups from Choc Zero. They have more flavors of sugar free syrups than you could even imagine, everything from Maple Pecan to Peppermint.
I even tried out Bulletproof Hot Chocolate in this Chocolate Pancake Recipe and I have to say, It was delicious!

For my second book, The Big Book of Keto, I settled on a Pumpkin Pancakes Recipe. To this day, It is still my favorite way to enjoy Keto Pancakes. There is something so warm and comforting about the taste of Pumpkin. I love adding Choc Zero’s Caramel Syrup to this recipe. (Is your mouth watering yet? I know mine is!)
This Keto Pancake batter can also make waffles. One of the things I love about waffles, besides their perfect butter holding ability, is that you can keep left overs. Pancakes don’t reheat well, but waffles do. You can even freeze them and then reheat them in the toaster. If you are really in the mood to get crazy, try making a grilled cheese sandwich with left over keto waffles. I promise you won’t regret it.

PANCAKE CAKE BITES
A really fun ways to make my classic pancake mix is to use my Pancake Cake recipe from my Easy 5-Ingredient Ketogenic Diet Cookbook and bake them in one of those brownie pans that makes the individual brownies so that each one has a perfect crust around it. It worked perfectly! It makes these beautiful, individual servings of pancake bites and it also makes it super easy to include add-ins like berries, keto friendly chocolate chips or anything else you can imagine!
You’ll definitely want to make these for your next brunch or big family breakfast because each kid could get their own unique flavor! You can get the recipe for Pancake Cake Bites here.
STRAWBERRY PANCAKE STACK
Do you like sliced strawberries and whipped cream in between fluffy keto-friendly pancakes?! ME TOO! Check out the Strawberry Pancake Stack. Topped off with Choc Zero sugar-free strawberry syrup, this combination is strawberry heaven! Choc Zero sells the most perfect Strawberry Syrup. It has zero sugar and tastes just like Strawberry Jelly! If Strawberry syrup isn’t your thing, try topping this recipe with Choc Zero’s Coconut Syrup or even the Chocolate Syrup! They also have the best Keto Maple Syrup around if you are looking to keep things simple.
