Prep Time15 minutes
Cook Time10 minutes
Total Time25 minutes
Servings: 4 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 large egg Provides structure and moisture.
  • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk Keeps the pancakes moist and dairy-free.
  • 4 Tbsp unsalted creamy peanut butter Adds richness and that classic peanut flavor.
  • ¾ cup almond flour A gluten-free alternative that gives a tender texture.
  • cup brown rice flour Adds a hearty base to the pancakes.
  • 1 tsp baking powder Helps the pancakes rise and become fluffy.
  • 2 Tbsp your favorite jelly or jam For that sweet burst of flavor inside the pancakes, plus more for serving.

Instructions

  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the large egg and unsweetened almond milk until well combined. Add the creamy peanut butter and mix until smooth.
  • In a separate bowl, mix the almond flour, brown rice flour, and baking powder. Stir well to ensure the baking powder is evenly distributed.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
  • Gently fold in the 2 tablespoons of your favorite jelly or jam into the batter. Swirling it in will give a lovely fruity flavor throughout the pancakes.
  • Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with a small amount of oil or cooking spray if necessary.
  • Pour about ¼ cup of the pancake batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip and cook for an additional 2 minutes on the other side until golden brown.
  • Stack your pancakes on a plate, top with additional jelly or jam, and drizzle with maple syrup if desired. Serve warm and enjoy every bite!

Notes

  • For fluffier pancakes, let the batter rest for about 10 minutes before cooking.
  • Always check if your peanut butter is stir-free; if not, mix it well before measuring.
  • Adjust the thickness of your batter by adding a little more almond milk if necessary.
  • Keep pancakes warm in a low oven while you cook the rest of the batter.
