Photo: Low Carb Maple Pecan Pancakes Recipe
Ingredients
- Non-stick cooking spray or butter
- 2 eggs
- 1/3 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup water
- 1 teaspoon no sugar added maple extract
- 1/2 cup soy flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar substitute (recommended: Splenda)
- 1 tablespoon wheat (or oat) bran
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/8 cup chopped pecans (walnuts may be substituted)
- Low Carb Fresh Whipped Cream, recipe follows
Directions
Grease a griddle or large pan with nonstick cooking spray or butter and heat over medium heat.
Mix all ingredients except pecans in a blender for about 15 seconds. Stop and scrape down the sides with a spatula, and continue mixing for another 15 seconds until well blended.
Pour approximately 16 mini-cakes onto the hot griddle, and sprinkle each with a few pecans. Cook on each side for only a minute or 2. Serve hot with melted butter or top with a dollop of Low Carb Whipped Cream
Low Carb Fresh Whipped Cream:
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/3 cup sugar substitute (recommended: Splenda)
- 1 teaspoon no sugar added vanilla extract
With an electric mixer on high, whip the heavy cream just until frothy. Then add in the sugar substitute and vanilla extract and continue to whip on high until peaks form. Be careful not to over-whip, or cream will break. Store in a pastry bag or glass dish with a lid and refrigerate.

My goodness, I think I just ate dessert! I made a few changes I added 1/4 cup Chia seeds, Instead of wheat bran I used Wheat germ and added a 1/4 cup of flax seed meal. I also added a splash of vanilla extract. For sweetener I use Xylitol. I thought the amount of sugar was a bit much for whipped cream. Over all the pancakes were delicious. i did used a tablespoon of sugar free syrup . Yum

This recipe was amazing.... even my 7 year and 19 yr old loved them! A great low carb alternative for that~ I need pancakes craving! I combined soy flour /almond meal flour and coconut flour for richness along with a tsp of wheat bran! so nutty and delicious! Sugar free syrup and a perfect breakfast in my opinion! thanks for this great recipe!

This is a good recipe, but I really didn't like the taste of the soy flour. I tried two different alternatives - almond meal / flour and flax seed meal. The texture with the almond meal was a little gritty, but the flavor was good. I loved the version with the flax seed meal. It has a good texture and a wonderful flavor. I will definately make that variation again. I topped them with a sugar free maple syrup. Next time, I will try making a maple infused whipped cream instead.
