Notes
- If you’ve never worked with almond flour before, storing the flour in the fridge will help preserve its freshness longer!
- I do not recommend changing the amount of flours listed. Coconut flour, in particular, is very high in fiber, leading to it being dry and will absorb a ton of moisture. If you increase the amount of coconut flour in this recipe, you’ll end up with dry pancakes if you do not offset it with additional liquid ingredients.
- When measuring the flours, be sure not to overpack the measuring cup or you’ll end up with too much flour. Fluff the flours up with a fork before spooning them into a measuring cup.
- You should not let the batter sit for long. It’s best to cook the batter immediately as the baking soda has been activated and will lose its effectiveness if it sits for too long.
- Don’t overcrowd the pan. Allow enough room for the pancakes to cook or they might blend into each other. You also want enough space to be able to comfortable flip the pancakes.
- For the best flavor, I recommend using real vanilla extract and not artificial extract.
