As a little girl, Sunday morning was a special time to cook waffles or pancakes with my dad before my older sister and mom would wake up and come into the kitchen for breakfast. I was the designated pancake flipper. As an adult, I didn’t often indulge in making pancakes for myself and since choosing to be grain-free with Brent, we have only attempted “paleo” pancakes a few times.
I don’t remember why we bought hazelnut flour; but lately it’s been calling to me. Sweet breads and baked goods have floated through my imagination. I settled on hazelnut pancakes because making pancakes takes me back to a simpler time, a time when it seemed like my sole purpose in life was to explore the world and smile. I hope these little hazelnut pancakes give you something to smile about, too.
Ingredients
1 Tbsp coconut oil, melted
1 tsp maple syrup
2 eggs
1 C hazelnut flour
pinch of salt
1/8 tsp baking soda
2 Tbsp coconut oil for pan
Method
Mix together melted coconut oil, eggs, and maple syrup using a whisk.
Slowly mix in salt, baking soda, and hazelnut flour to liquids, until a batter is formed.
Heat remaining coconut oil in your skillet on medium-low heat, and add in as many pancakes at a time that will fit. We made ours around silver dollar size.
Flip after 2 to 3 minutes. Cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes and serve.
Serve alongside your favorite breakfast items. We had ours with sugar-free Canadian bacon and some fresh eggs from a local farm. These would even work to make mini breakfast sandwiches—the possibilities are endless!

I am totally going to have to try this! Hazelnuts are dirt cheap here in Germany. I love your pyrex bowl 🙂 I am kind of fanatical about collecting vintage pyrex. Happy to see good things coming out of my native Virginia! I miss it there!

One thing I’ve enjoyed about Paleo pancakes is that with a little tweaking they easily can become cookies. I will be trying these both ways … of course, the cookies will have chocolate chips added. 🙂

OMG. The hazelnut pancakes are so easy. So few ingredients. AND taste delicious. I added blueberries and what a treat for me. I’m on a super restrictive diet to reduce inflammation in my gut from ulcerative colitis. This recipe made breakfast interesting again. THANK YOU.
