Equipment

• Oven 
• knife
• Spoon 
• Spatula
• Non-stick pan
• Skillet 

Ingredients

  

• 500  gm spinach  chopped
• 4 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tbsp garlic  minced
• 1  tsp pink salt
• ½ tsp black pepper
• ½ onion  finely chopped
• ¼ cup almond flour  blanched and finely ground
• 3 Cheese Cubes  grated
• 2 Eggs

Instructions

 

•  Preheat the oven to 1500F or 1800F. This is required to keep the cooked pancakes warm while other batches of the same are fried.
• Wash the spinach, chop, and drain thoroughly on a  kitchen towel. Remove as much water as possible.
• Take a large bowl and add garlic, onion, and spinach to it. Mix using a spatula.
•  In another bowl, smaller, whisk the eggs thoroughly. Add salt and pepper to it.
• Pour the egg mixture over the spinach mixture and mix thoroughly. Add in the almond flour and cheese to the same and mix well using a spatula.
• Place a large skillet or a non-stick pan over a medium flame and heat olive oil in it.
• Use a tablespoon to take 4 scoops of the spinach mixture and place them in the skillet. Apply little pressure to flatten the pancakes.
• Cook for about 3 to 4 minutes on each side of the pancakes or until they turn brown and crisp. Remove from the skillet and let them cool. Place the prepared pancakes in the oven.
• Repeat Step #07 and Step #08 for two more batches of pancakes.
• Serve warm pancakes with Greek yogurt or some keto chutney or sauce or sour cream!

Notes

The crispiness of the prepared pancakes depends significantly on the dryness of the spinach.
Once you’re done cooking, about half of the olive oil will remain in the skillet. Use it as much as possible to thoroughly brown the pancakes.
