Ingredient Notes (For Best Keto Results)
Almond Flour
Use finely ground blanched almond flour for a light and fluffy pancake texture. Almond meal will make the pancakes dense.
Coconut Flour
A small amount adds structure and absorbs excess moisture. Coconut flour is very absorbent, so don’t increase the quantity.
Blueberries
Fresh blueberries are ideal, but frozen blueberries also work. Add frozen berries directly to the batter without thawing.
Keto Sweetener
Erythritol, monk fruit, or allulose work best. Make sure the sweetener measures cup-for-cup like sugar.
Keto Buttermilk
Almond milk mixed with apple cider vinegar creates a keto-friendly buttermilk that gives these pancakes a classic tangy flavor.
How to Make Keto Lemon Blueberry Sheet Pancakes
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Line a sheet pan with baking paper or lightly grease it.
- In a small bowl, mix almond milk and apple cider vinegar. Let it sit for 5 minutes to thicken.
- In a large bowl, whisk together almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In another bowl, whisk eggs, sweetener, melted butter, vanilla extract, lemon juice, and lemon zest.
- Add the almond milk mixture to the wet ingredients and mix well.
- Combine wet and dry ingredients, stirring gently until just mixed.
- Fold in the blueberries carefully.
- Spread the batter evenly into the prepared sheet pan.
- Bake for 18–22 minutes, until golden and a toothpick comes out clean.
- Let cool completely, then slice into squares.
