Instructions
In a bowl, whisk almond flour, eggs, almond milk, vanilla extract, baking powder, and melted butter until smooth.

Pour 2-3 tablespoons of batter for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes.
Serve with keto-friendly syrup or berries.
Tips for the Perfect Pancake:
Overmixing can lead to tough pancakes. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
Letting the batter rest for a few minutes allows the gluten to relax, resulting in fluffier pancakes.
Cook the pancakes over medium-low heat to ensure even cooking and prevent burning.
Wait until bubbles form on the surface of the pancakes before flipping them.
Common Mistakes to Avoid:
If the batter is too thick, the pancakes will be dense and dry. Add a little more liquid, such as milk or water, to thin it out.
Overcooking can lead to dry and crispy pancakes. Remove them from the pan as soon as they are golden brown
Undercooked pancakes will be doughy in the center. Cook them until they are set and cooked through
