Recipe Notes & Tips
✔️ Batter Consistency: If the batter is too thick, add a little more almond milk or water.
✔️ Flavors: Try using different Devotion protein powder flavors (e.g., Angel Food Cake, Brownie Batter) to switch things up.
✔️ Sweeter Pancakes? Add stevia, monk fruit sweetener, or sugar-free syrup to the batter.
✔️ Extra Fluffiness: Let the batter sit for 2-3 minutes before cooking to allow the coconut flour to absorb liquid.
✔️ Keto Boost: Top with sugar-free whipped cream or nut butter for added fats.
✔️ Storage: Leftover pancakes can be refrigerated for 2-3 days or frozen for up to a month.
