Best Low-Carb Pancake: No-Carb Pancakes with only 4 Ingredients

January 25, 2016 by Irina 17 Comments

While I continue to experimenting with my No-Carb and Low-carb eating menus, I came across a new recipe that is very quick and easy to make and only requires 4 ingredients.

Related: Check out my Super fluffy Ricotta melt-in-your mouth pancake that I posted recently and why lie? It's amazing with only 4 ingredients.

I've made these pancakes several times already mastering to my liking and to my perfection and I'm happy to report that I'm satisfying my cravings without packing the extra weight and fat. Not to mention that I feel great and I don't have the over-stuffy feeling after eating pancakes that are loaded with sugar and flour.

No-carb pancakes

It's not that I constantly crave bread, sugar or pancakes, but these recipes really help me and go wonderfully with my low-carb eating journey ever since I cut pastas, rice, bread and starchy vegetables from my diet. I feel awesome and shrinking. I already lost 5 pounds in the past 2 weeks and my belly gets sucked in day by day. If you questioning physical activity - yes, I exercise for 40 - 60 minutes each day.

These pancakes can be consumed in a variety of ways, such as with butter, maple syrup, or with berries and fruits. My favorite way to enjoy these pancakes is to add a little butter to a hot pancake and lightly sprinkle it with cinnamon. Yummy! This is a very similar recipe to Cloud breads but in a form of a pancake, which I find very delightful and appetizing.

Ingredients for No-Carb Pancakes

3 eggs

3 Tablespoon cream cheese, softened

1 Tablespoon brown sugar or sweetener of your choice

2 Tablespoons Almond Flour (Almond Meal)

Directions:

Add the softened cream cheese and other ingredients and mix them all together using a hand mixer  or by fork (1-2 minutes until the mixture is smooth). The mixture may be "lumpy" - No Problem!

If you think the mixture is too "liquidy" add another 2 tablespoons of Almond meal (Almond flour) to the mixture and mix well. That way the pancakes are airy, fluffy and thicker. I don't really like large pancakes like they serve in the diners, but prefer a medium sizes, like 4-5 on the pan.

Pour or heat some oil onto pan ( I used Avocado cooking oil) Cook them until done, about 1 minute on each side or until done. Add some butter, cinnamon if you like and Enjoy!

3 ingredient no-carb pancakes

These no carb pancakes are fast, easy, they are high protein, gluten free and healthy! Not to mention they are delicious.

Yes, they may be thinner and not as fluffier as your traditional pancake or the fluffy low-carb cottage pancake, but they really do melt in your mouth with good flavor!

    love easy quick healthy, too. What I do with oatmeal is 1/2 oatmeal, 1/2 c muscle milk. Anything else you want. (That's fine for me) mix together. Refrierate overnight. Heat in a.m. as much as you want or not.

      Hi, how's the low-carbing for the wedding going? Because of almond flour added - about 1,5g carbs per pancake... Congratulations on upcoming wedding!

    Hi Irina, thanks for all yr great low carb recipes. Do you just add all the ingredients together at one time & mix?? I am low carbing here Iin N. IRELAND & want a low carb pancake so-o much. Fed upwith eggs, cheese & greens. Thanks for your reply in advance. Oh - can I use coconut flour instead of almond flour?? And Would that be less carbs??

    Yes so I was actually asking about the coconut flour in regards to these pancakes. As far as carbs and calories and fat which flour would be better to use, coconut or almond, or does it not matter as far as calories and carbs?
