And here's mine.



Ahh, I can't stand pancakes!!

They all look good! Ours were a complete failure - I found several recipes online for almond flour ones so Mr Marten (I don't cook a lot) tried one UK recipe....however, the almond flour didn't bind well and the pancakes just broke up in the pan. We ate them anyway with berries and some lemon juice and honey, but they were not what you'd call very tasty

I just guessed and then adjusted when the first one completely fell apart, and ended up with 50g ground almonds, 1/2tsp baking powder, 2 large eggs and 150ml (oat) milk. That worked when I put in a smaller amount of mixture so pancakes a bit bigger than scotch pancake size but did still fall apart when I tried to do one the full size of the medium frying pan. I think next time I try it I will put in more baking powder

Some psyllium husk/powder might help to bind it together a bit better. I have used that with ground almonds and a little coconut flour when I have made wraps and they came out large, thin and pliable. I can't give you quantities unfortunately as I tend to just put a bit of this and a bit of that and see how it works out, but I would guess about a dessert spoon. Psyllium has no appreciable flavour and mostly just provides soluble fibre which absorbs liquid to thicken and bind it.

I haven't yet got around to buying any of that either. Maybe I should try to find some tomorrow, I need to do some low carb cake practice this weekend
