Ingredients

Scale

Pancakes:

  • 1 cup almond flour (super-fine)

  • 2 tablespoons black cocoa powder

  • 1 tablespoon coconut flour

  • 1½ teaspoons baking powder

  • Pinch of salt

  • 3 large eggs

  • ¼ cup heavy cream

  • ¼ cup water

  • 2 tablespoons melted butter or coconut oil

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 2 tablespoons erythritol or monk fruit sweetener

Cream Layer:

  • ¾ cup heavy whipping cream

  • 1 tablespoon sweetener

  • ½ teaspoon vanilla
    OR

  • ¾ cup mascarpone cheese

  • 1 tablespoon sweetener

  • Splash of vanilla

Toppings (optional):

  • Fresh blackberries or raspberries

  • Shaved sugar-free dark chocolate

  • Chopped pecans or almonds

  • Extra dusting of black cocoa powder

Instructions

  1. Mix dry ingredients: In a bowl, combine almond flour, black cocoa, coconut flour, baking powder, and salt.

  2. Mix wet ingredients: In another bowl, whisk eggs, cream, water, vanilla, butter/oil, and sweetener.

  3. Combine: Mix wet and dry together until smooth. Let batter rest for 5 minutes to thicken.

  4. Cook pancakes: Heat a non-stick pan over low-medium. Add butter or oil. Pour 2 tablespoons batter per pancake. Cook 2–3 mins on one side, flip carefully, and cook 1 more minute. Let cool on a rack.

  5. Make the cream: Whip cream, sweetener, and vanilla until soft peaks form. Or mix mascarpone with sweetener and vanilla until smooth.

  6. Layer it up: On a plate or in a jar, layer pancake, cream, and berries. Repeat for 3–4 layers. Top with more cream and optional toppings.

Notes

  • Batter will be thick—add a splash of cream if needed.

  • Keep heat low to avoid burning the cocoa.

  • Store extra pancakes in the fridge for 4 days or freeze for later.

  • Perfect for kids too—just go easy on sweetener types that may upset little tummies.
