Remove from pan and repeat with remaining eggs.

Keto Pancakes

There's nothing like a big stack of pancakes for breakfast, now you can still have that classic breakfast menu on your keto diet.

• 1/2 teaspoon Sweetleaf - stevia sweetener (or 2 tablespoons regular sugar)
• butter and syrup (sugar free syrup for low carb option)

2. Blend until smooth, scraping down the sides if needed. Let batter sit for 2 minutes.
3. Heat a non-stick skillet to medium heat. For each pancake, pour 3 to 4 tablespoons of batter onto skillet.
