Easy almond blueberry and lemon breakfast pancakes

We eat eggs from our own hens for breakfast most days, completely organic and free range with large yellow yolks, they taste absolutely delicious.

Eggs are a brilliant source of energy, loaded with nutrients, proteins, vitamins and minerals.  Yolks contains cholesterol, fat soluble vitamins and essential fatty acids, making eggs the perfect breakfast for growing kids.

Ketogenic pancake recipes

Almond, egg, dairy cream pancakes with blackberry, raspberry and butter topping

When we want a change from fried, scrambles or poached eggs pancakes are my next default.  Pancakes are  a great Keto food, there are so many options for the batter, fillings and toppings that will meet most tastes and your Keto ratio and allowances.    I have a number of different pancake variations, including my Coconut Flour Pancakes, almond flour, macadamia nuts and hazelnut combos, all firm favourites in my house.

The great thing about pancakes is that they can be adjusted to make specific fat: protein / carb ratio by adding topping such as blueberries and additional fats, such as coconut oil or butter.  The taste can be livened up with nutmeg, cinnamon, orange zest or other spices, topped with fruit slithers, chopped nuts, homemade nut butters, organic dairy or cream.

Pancakes are a fast, easy, highly adjustable Ketogenic or Modified Atkins meal.
