Keto Pancakes

There's nothing like a big stack of pancakes for breakfast—they're a classic breakfast staple! But just because you're on the Keto diet, that doesn't mean you have to miss out on the joys of flapjacks. This recipe is super easy and will definitely satisfy your craving.

There's a lot of keto pancakes out there that involve 2 ingredients: cream cheese and eggs. They're okay, but they're a little eggy and way more tangy than we like. Adding [almond] flour makes them a little more cakey, and the lemon zest gives them an added layer of flavor that we're totally addicted to. Not a fan of lemon? Add a teaspoon of vanilla instead! You could even make these savory with a bit of parmesan or cheddar! The customization options are truly endless.

Obviously, most typical pancake toppings aren't allowed on the Keto diet. Here's some ideas for toppings that will take 'em to the next level without kicking you off Keto: toasted unsweetened coconut, a drizzle of melted unsweetened peanut butter, a handful of berries, or go savory with a sprinkle of bacon! You can add some keto chocolate chips too (we love Lily's best).
