Best Paleo Pancakes

Food Wiki
When you envision meals on the paleo diet, fluffy stacks of golden pancakes might not be the first thing that comes to mind. However, we're here to tell you that delicious paleo pancakes can be a reality, and we'll show you how. Discover why this pancake recipe is all you need to satisfy your carb cravings in the morning.
They're packed with protein.
Did you know that both almond flour and coconut flour are rich in protein? It's true! That means these pancakes will keep you full until lunch, just like starting your day with eggs or yogurt. Unlike classic pancakes that often lead to a sugar crash by 10 AM and intense hunger by 11, these paleo pancakes offer a welcome change. (P.S. If you're on the keto diet and looking for a pancake recipe, you're in the wrong place! Check out our banana-less keto pancakes instead, which we're sure you'll love.)
They're incredibly fluffy.
Thanks to a simple yet effective technique found in many excellent pancake recipes, these pancakes are exceptionally fluffy. By whipping your egg whites until they form stiff peaks and then folding them into the batter, you create numerous tiny air bubbles that give your pancakes a substantial lift as they cook. This results in a perfect texture reminiscent of your favorite diner pancakes. No flat flapjacks here!
They include a full serving of fruit.
The mashed bananas in this recipe work wonders. Aside from providing a delightful flavor (think: banana bread pancakes ????), they also contribute to the pancakes' incredible texture and provide a healthy dose of potassium.
They pair well with any topping.
These pancakes are a blank canvas, ready to be customized to your liking. While we enjoy them in their classic form with butter and maple syrup, the topping options are endless. Berries, nuts, seeds—you name it. Pro tip: Try toasting the leftovers and adding a dollop of unsweetened almond butter. Who says pancakes can't be healthy? ????
