These cream cheese low carb pancakes are decadent and delicious and make for an excellent low-carb or ketogenic diet option.
The recipe is simple and just includes eggs, cream cheese, coconut flour, psyllium husk fiber, and the sweetener of your choice. Cook the pancakes in coconut oil, butter or ghee.
Instead of drizzling them in sugary syrup, I topped them with frozen and thawed wild, organic blueberries.
Enjoy for breakfast with a side of whole milk, plain yogurt.
