TIPS TO MAKE THE BEST FLUFFY ALMOND PULP PANCAKE RECIPE

MAKE SURE ALMOND PULP IS SUPER DRY. Almond pulp has to be very dry or it will weigh down your pancakes.

USE FRESH CINNAMON. This will give you an amazing hint of cinnamon in your pancakes.

USE FRESH BAKING POWDER. Baking powder will make your pancakes super fluffy. Don't use old baking powder, it will not work as effectively.

LET YOUR PANCAKE BATTER REST ~10 MINUTES BEFORE COOKING. Baking powder takes a couple minutes to activate in your batter.

USE ⅛-1/4 CUP SCOOP FOR SMALL PANCAKES, OR ⅓-1/2 CUP SCOOP FOR LARGE PANCAKES.
