From Cristina: Silver Dollar Keto Pancakes!
Paleo pancakes are a pet project of mine. Ever since my son Jack could chew, he has loved pancakes in the morning. While his first variations were some mashed banana concoctions, as he has grown, so have my healthy pancake making skills. These days I’ve narrowed my search, I’ve wanted to make a recipe that was fluffy, delicious, low carb and nut free. Yeah, that’s a tall order ! But you know, breakfast is the first meal of the day, and for me, at least, it sets the tone for the rest of the day. I know my body does best with a low carb meal and plenty of good fats!
This recipe is pancakes dreams are made of. They look and feel like legit silver dollar pancakes. The flavor is so close too. You can always sweeten the batter if you want to for the super authentic taste, but I like to save the carbs for the toppings!
For these I made a maple flavored chocolate sauce, a good way to add more good fats to the dish, and sweetened it with monk fruit syrup that’s super low carb. It was tasty and the whole family loved this. I’ve been hoarding this recipe for a while now, I’ve been meaning to write a breakfast recipe ebook, but it’s one of those things that I always put on the back burner, you know, because work… life… etc.
Hope you love these as much as I do! If you want lower carb paleo recipes come see me at TheCastwayKitchen.com

Silver Dollar Keto Pancakes
- Yield: 3 Servings
Ingredients
For the Pancakes
- 5 eggs
- 3 tablespoons MCT creamer (I use this brand)
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- 1 tablespoon liquid collagen (I use this brand)
- Pinch of pink Himalayan salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla bean scraping (vanilla powder)
- 5-6 tablespoons coconut flour (I use this brand)
- ¼ cup sparking water
For the Chocolate Sauce
- 2 tablespoons Sugar Free Maple Syrup (I use this brand) code PEACE for 20% off
- 2 tablespoon cocoa butter
- 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
- 1 tablespoon ghee or butter
Instructions
For the Pancakes
- Heat a flat cast iron skillet or griddle on medium heat while you prepare your batter. If you didn’t know, this is the proper way to heat cast iron so it’s non-stick. Low and slow! It will take about 10 minutes to come to temperature.
- So while that heats, in a large bowl crack open all your eggs. Add in the MCT creamer and whisk together.
- Next add in the baking soda, salt, vanilla, collagen and coconut flour. Whisk until the mix is smooth and thick. You might want to start with 5 tbsp. Once it thickens add in the sparkling water, I just use whatever flavor La Croix I have on hand, it doesn’t mess with the flavor.
- Mix until well combined. Let the batter sit in the fridge for 2-3 minutes. When your remove the batter from the fridge, if it has not thickened, this varies a lot depending on coconut flour brand, add in the remaining tbsp. of coconut flour. Mix in until your batter resembles melted ice cream.
- Lightly grease your skillet and make 2-3 pancakes at a time using ¼ cup of batter. When the pancakes are dry around the edges and look fluffy and white, flip them over. Cook another 2 minutes, until the center feels bouncy and firm when touched.
- Repeat with the remaining batter. Makes about 9 pancakes.
For the Chocolate Sauce
- In a microwave safe container mix the Lakanto Maple Syrup and the cocoa butter.
- Heat on medium for 30 seconds.
- Add in cocoa powder and ghee or butter. Mix until smooth.
- Pour over pancakes!

It's annoying that you have to hide your recommended brands behind affiliate links.
