Keto Flours That Can Be Used And Should Be Avoided 

As per the recipe, we’ll make keto banana pancakes using almond flour. But if by any chance you are allergic to almond flour, then sunflower seed flour or walnut flour can be used as substitutes. And the amount of this flour for the batter will be the same as almond flour.

However, by no means use coconut flour, which will cause the pancakes to crumble and dry out.

Storage And Reheating Process Of Your Keto Banana Pancakes

1.Refrigerator

If you have any leftover pancakes, then you can keep them in an airtight container and store them in the fridge for a maximum of three days. Before eating them, just put them in the microwave for about 10 seconds to treat yourself to some piping hot pancakes.

2. Freezer

In order to store the pancakes in the freezer, simply insert a piece of parchment paper between each pancake so that they do not stick to one another, and then keep them all in a freezer bag. Your pancakes will be edible for up to 3 months.

3. Reheating

If you want to reheat your frozen pancakes in the microwave, then keep them inside for 20 seconds or more until they are warm. Or you can always put your pancakes in the oven by putting them on a baking sheet and then covering them up with tin foil. It will take around 10 minutes at the temperature of 350°F to warm them up.
