Ingredients You’ll Need

• 1 cup almond flour — use superfine blanched almond flour for the best texture.
• 1 tsp baking powder — helps the pancakes rise and stay light.
• 4 eggs — whisked, they give structure and lift.
• 1 ripe banana — mashed; it adds natural sweetness and moisture.
• 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice) — adjusts batter consistency.
• 1 tsp vanilla extract — optional, for added flavor.
• 3/4 cup blueberries — fresh or thawed frozen berries work well.

How to Make Blueberry Banana Pancakes

• Prepare the batter. In a large bowl, combine the almond flour and baking powder. In a separate bowl, lightly whisk the eggs and mix in the mashed banana, milk, and vanilla. Add the wet ingredients to the dry and whisk until smooth, breaking up any small clumps. A hand mixer makes this quick and ensures an even, slightly aerated batter.
• Heat and portion. Warm a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium-low heat and lightly grease it. Use a 1/4 cup measure or a cookie scoop for even pancakes. Spoon batter onto the skillet, spacing the pancakes apart, and gently press a few blueberries onto each one.
• Cook slowly for even results. Cook 2–3 minutes on the first side until small bubbles form across the surface and the edges look set. Flip carefully and cook another 2 minutes until golden and cooked through. Overly high heat will brown the outside before the center cooks, so moderate heat is best.
• Serve. Stack the pancakes and top with extra blueberries, sliced banana, and a drizzle of maple syrup if desired. Serve immediately for the best texture.

Tips for the Best Pancakes

• Mix the batter well. Whipping the almond flour with the wet ingredients helps create air and a lighter texture.
• Let the batter rest for a few minutes after mixing. It will thicken slightly and produce fluffier pancakes.
• Use a consistent scoop or measuring cup for uniform pancakes that cook evenly.
• Cook on medium-low heat and wait for bubbles on top and slightly dry edges before flipping.
• Keep finished pancakes warm on a baking sheet in a 250°F (about 120°C) oven while you finish the batch. Avoid stacking hot pancakes to prevent sogginess.

Prepping and Storage

To store: Place cooled pancakes in an airtight container or wrap in foil and refrigerate for up to 5 days. Lining layers with paper towels helps absorb excess moisture.

To freeze: Freeze pancakes in a single layer on a baking sheet, then transfer to freezer-safe bags for up to 3 months. Reheat gently in a toaster oven or microwave until warm.
