If you’re searching for the best keto pancakes recipe, then look no further than my famous keto cream cheese pancakes! Low carb, nut free, and gluten free, they are guaranteed to up your keto breakfast game!
After months of overindulging, January typically arrives with a slew of guilt and a waistband that is screaming for mercy. Since many people turn to a low carb lifestyle to get their sugar cravings under control and lose those extra pounds, I thought I’d devote this week to some of my favorite low carb recipes – starting with these delicious keto cream cheese pancakes.
Whenever I resort to low carb diets like keto or Atkins to lose weight, the toughest meal for me is always breakfast. There are only so many eggs you can eat before you are looking for something different. These keto cream cheese pancakes are a welcome treat in that case. Even if you aren’t watching carbs, these are also an excellent option for those who are gluten free as they contain no grains or flour of any kind. And no nuts either!
In fact the list of ingredients in this keto cream cheese pancakes recipe is incredibly short:
Cream cheese, eggs, your choice of sweetener – maybe a pinch of cinnamon.
That’s it.
And they are super easy to make.
I usually whip up a batch of these keto pancakes in my trusty magic bullet, and it takes less than a minute to make the batter. A surprisingly satisfying low carb substitute for the real thing, that tastes like skinny fried cheesecakes!
Even if you aren’t watching your carbs these keto cream cheese pancakes are a delicious departure from the traditional doughy stack of pancakes. And you won’t have the sleepy feeling that usually comes afterwards!
Some people have had trouble making and flipping these cream cheese pancakes, so we made a 60 second recipe video with a few key tips for success that will have you making perfect stacks of keto pancakes every time!

I love experimenting in the kitchen, so I decided to give this recipe a try. I did the 3x, followed the recipe and they tasted great! They were tricky to flip, but otherwise were very good! Even my 3 year old son loved them! My husband enjoyed them, but had nearly 2 servings. Granted, he’s not the one dieting, so that’s okay. Definitely making these again!

I’m new to Keto and was surprised at how good these came out. They’re not too sweet, and I can hardly tell I’ve used an alternative sweetener. Taste like French toast!

If my stomach cannot tolerate Cream Cheese, do you recommend a sub? THANK YOU!
Mellissa Sevigny says
If you can’t tolerate cream cheese because of the dairy then I can’t think of a sub for this recipe. Maybe search a dairy free keto pancake recipe instead for best results. If it’s not the dairy itself then you can try mascarpone cheese in this recipe and it will work almost the same.

Not sure what I did, but it tasted like the leftover egg batter from french toast. It was good but very eggy
