Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a large bowl, lightly whisk the eggs. Add the applesauce and vanilla extract and mix until well combined. (2 minutes)

02

Step

In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond flour, tapioca flour, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt. Add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients and stir until just combined. Gradually add water until the batter reaches your desired consistency. (5 minutes)

03

Step

Allow the batter to rest for 15 minutes. This allows the tapioca flour to fully hydrate, resulting in a better pancake texture. (15 minutes)

04

Step

Heat a lightly oiled griddle or non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Melt the coconut oil evenly across the surface. (3 minutes)

05

Step

Drop large spoonfuls of batter onto the hot griddle. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges appear dry, approximately 3-4 minutes. (3 minutes)

06

Step

Flip the pancakes and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown on the other side. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more coconut oil to the griddle as needed. (2 minutes)

For extra flavor, consider adding a dash of nutmeg or cardamom to the batter.
Feel free to experiment with different toppings! Berries, nuts, or a dollop of coconut yogurt are all delicious choices.
The batter can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. You may need to add a splash of water to thin it out before cooking.

    I've tried so many paleo pancake recipes, and this is by far the best. They're actually fluffy!

    The batter was a little thick at first, but after letting it rest for 15 minutes, it was perfect.

  • Gabe Dicki

    I substituted mashed banana for the applesauce, and they turned out great! A nice way to use up ripe bananas.

  • Dale Borer

    I added a handful of blueberries to the batter, and it was delicious!

  • Isai Yundt

    The applesauce adds just the right amount of sweetness. I didn't even need to add any syrup.
