These low-carb pancakes are a great way to start your day or even for Sunday brunch or a weeknight dinner. Yes, you can enjoy breakfast for dinner once in a while. These pancakes are different because they use almond flour and diced zucchini in the recipe which makes them filling. These pancakes are filling and flavorful. You can use any kind of nut butter such as peanut, almond, cashew, etc. and your pancakes will be just as delicious. I highly recommend adding a touch of cinnamon or nutmeg while mixing these pancakes for more flavor.
