Almond pancakes – notes
I found the recipe for lactose-free pancake batter in Donna Hay’s book “Modern baking”.
We are a family who loves pancakes, and I practically fry some every weekend. Most often I make pancakes from Jamie Oliver’s recipe, but from time to time I feel like something new. And that’s how I decided on almond pancakes.
In the book, they are made with whole wheat flour, but I gave it up and replaced it with regular wheat flour. Besides flour, you will need ground almonds (I had unblanched almonds) and almond plant-based drink. I used a store-bought drink, but you can also make your own homemade almond milk. It’s not difficult, it just requires prior preparation of the almonds.
How to make lactose-free almond pancake batter – tips
The batter itself is very simple and quick to make – I didn’t even use a mixer here.
First, I poured the flour into a bowl and added ground almonds (if you want, you can sift them to get rid of larger almond pieces – I didn’t do that), finally I added erythritol (instead of sugar) and mixed with a spoon.
I added eggs and a little almond drink to the bowl – I mixed it. Then I gradually poured in the rest of the drink, mixing thoroughly.
Finally, I set the bowl aside for a while for the batter to rest. It’s worth letting pancake batter rest for about 20-30 minutes – then the gluten from the flour starts to work and the batter fries more easily.
As for frying the pancakes themselves…
I recommend doing this in a non-stick pan, only lightly greased with oil. These almond pancakes are a bit harder to flip than traditional milk pancakes. Therefore, it’s better to fry them longer on one side – I only flipped them when I saw they were browning. If I tried to flip them earlier, the pancake could tear. So – patience :)
Immediately after frying, the pancakes are slightly stiff – this is due to the longer frying time, but then, stacked one on top of another, they soften and become flexible.
What to serve almond pancakes with?
I opted for cottage cheese, simply mashed with a fork, mixed with natural yogurt and honey. If you’re aiming for a completely lactose-free meal, use lactose-free cottage cheese and yogurt.
Besides cottage cheese, I recommend fresh fruits – like blueberries or raspberries, as well as roasted apples and pears :)
I got 12 pancakes from this recipe – so roughly a portion for 3-4 people.

Check out my detailed recipe with step-by-step photos showing how to prepare the pancake batter, and fry them up for a family breakfast. You can use regular all-purpose flour for the batter, or if you want your breakfast to be even healthier and more filling, go for whole-wheat flour instead. Serve the fried pancakes while they are still warm. In the autumn, stewed apples or caramelized pears make excellent toppings. Pair them with a light cottage cheese, honey, or a delicious homemade jam. I am convinced that the whole family will love these almond pancakes for breakfast.
