  • 1/2 tsp baking soda

Process until creamy and completely combined. about 1 minute. You may need to use a spoon or spatula to mix in the sides half way through.
  • Heat butter in skillet or spray with avocado oil. over medium heat until shimmering. Using 1/4 cup batter per pancake, portion batter onto skillet. Cook until edges are set and first side is golden, 2-4 minutes.
  • Flip pancakes and continue to cook until second side is golden, 2-3 minutes. Serve immediately or transfer to a prepared rack in a 200 degree oven to stay warm. Repeat with remaining batter.

Notes

*If you don't have almond milk you can use whatever you have (coconut milk, macadamia nut, regular milk if it doesn't bother you, or even just water) Depending on what milk you use you may have to add a little more to get the consistence you want for pancakes. They should be easy to pour but not runny.
Processing the ingredients in the blender is what helps them to be smooth and fluffy.
You can use allulose, or honey in place of the maple syrup
You can also use ghee in place of the butter if you don't tolerate dairy well.
