Pancakes

• ⏲️ Prep time: 5 min
• 🍳 Cook time: 16 min
• 🍽️ Servings: 2
• 🔪Tools: a frying pan with a lid, two bowls, an electric whisk

Ingredients

• 3 eggs
• 2 tablespoons of gelatine powder
• 2 tablespoons of collagen powder
• ghee or other frying fat

Sweet sauce:

• allulose or other sweetener
• 50 grams of butter
• 2 egg yolks
• one pinch of vanilla extract or vanillin

Directions

1. Separate the eggs
2. In one bowl whisk the egg-whites while adding the collagen until they get so foamy that you can turn the bowl around without them falling out.
3. In the other bowl whisk the egg-yolks with the gelatine and add a pinch of salt.
4. Now carefully integrate the egg-white foam to the egg-yolks by adding one tablespoon at a time. The mixture should stay as foamy as possible.
5. In the frying pan heat up the ghee. It should melt and build little bubbles. Then turn down the heat and with your egg-batter form little pancakes in your pan (3 or 4 should fit into one pan). They should be high and fluffy.
6. Now cover the pancakes with the lid and let them fry at low to medium temperature for 8 minutes. Turn them around and with the lid on, fry for another 8 minutes. For optimal results turn off the heat for the last 2 minutes.
7. Take them out and prepare them on a plate. If you want them salty, you can sprinkle some crispy bacon over them or melt some cheese in your pan and pour it over the pancakes. You can also add a piece of butter on top.

Sweet option:

1. Do all the steps above, but add sweetener to the egg-yolks while whisking them.
2. Now make the sweet sauce: melt the butter and mix it with the egg-yolks, vanilla and sweetener.
3. Pour the sauce between and over the pancakes. If you want, add some whipped cream on top.

A very easy keto option would be to cook berries for 3 minutes in a pan, add the sweetener and pour the sauce over your pancakes.

Enjoy :)

Notes

• If the pan option takes too long for you or is too complicated, you can grease a baking sheet and pour the batter on it to form pancakes. Put it on the lower half into the preheated oven at 130 degrees and wait for 10 to 15 minutes. The pancakes will not be as fluffy as in the pan, but they will still taste great.
• The pancakes taste best when still warm from the pan. But they still are very tasty if you store them in the fridge to eat later during the day.
