Light and fluffy gluten-free pancakes made with almond flour, fresh lemon zest, and poppy seeds, perfect for a bright and wholesome breakfast.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups (150g) almond flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon sea salt
  • 3 large eggs, room temperature
  • ¾ cup (180ml) unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon zest
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 2 tablespoons poppy seeds
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Unsalted butter or coconut oil for cooking

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together almond flour, baking powder, and sea salt.
  2. In a separate large bowl, beat eggs until frothy. Add almond milk, maple syrup, lemon zest, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Whisk to combine.
  3. Pour dry ingredients into wet ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Fold in poppy seeds last. Avoid overmixing.
  4. Heat a non-stick skillet or cast iron pan over medium heat. Add a small pat of butter or a teaspoon of coconut oil and wait until it bubbles but does not brown.
  5. Using a ¼ cup measure, pour batter onto the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes until bubbles form and edges look set. Flip and cook for another 2 minutes until golden and cooked through.
  6. Transfer pancakes to a plate and keep warm in a low oven (200°F / 95°C) while cooking remaining batter. Repeat until all batter is used.

Notes

Use room temperature eggs for better batter consistency. Avoid overmixing to keep pancakes fluffy. Keep cooked pancakes warm in a 200°F oven. If batter is too thick, add an extra tablespoon of almond milk. Check baking powder freshness if pancakes don’t rise.
