How To Make Pancake Bites

Pancake bites are quick to throw together – whip up the batter, pour it in, add your fave toppings, and bake. It will take you 25-ish minutes from start to finish.

Ingredients

• To keep this recipe low carb and keto, we will use Almond Flour, butter, Keto approved sweeteners such as Swerve, almond milk, and toppings of your choice. I used blueberries and sugar-free mini chocolate chips.

Directions

1. We will start by combining almost all of our ingredients into a blender and giving them a whirl until completely incorporated. (Ever since my Healthy Flourless Blender Muffins, I’ve used a blender to make most of my batters.)
2. When finished, we will pour that batter into a mini muffin pan, stud the tops of every muffin with your desired keto/low carb toppings, and bake for about 15 minutes.
3. Let cool a bit, pop them out, and serve with a side of Keto Sugar Free Maple Syrup. It’s very good!

Tips & Swaps

• Blending the Batter: Combining ingredients in a blender makes for a smooth, fully incorporated batter. It also makes the process simpler and cleaner.
• Topping Choices: Feel free to experiment with different low-carb or keto-friendly toppings. Nuts, seeds, or even a sprinkle of cinnamon can add a flavorful twist.
• Sweetener Options: While this recipe uses Swerve, you can substitute it with other keto-approved sweeteners based on your preference.
• Serving Suggestion: Serve these pancake bites with Keto Sugar-Free Maple Syrup for an added touch of sweetness.

How To Freeze Pancake Bites

• To freeze, place completely cooled pancake bites on a baking sheet and freeze for 2 hours or until frozen. Take them out of the freezer and put them in a ziploc freezer bag. Freeze for up to 2 months.
• When ready to use, remove as many as you want from the freezer bag and reheat in the microwave or in the oven.
• To refrigerate the pancake bites, store them in airtight containers and keep them in the fridge for up to 4 days.
