Ingredients

  • 4 oz full-fat cream cheese, softened
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 2 tsp granulated erythritol or monk fruit sweetener
  • 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 2 tsp unsalted butter
  • pinch fine salt

Instructions

  1. 1

    Combine 4 oz softened full-fat cream cheese, 4 large eggs, 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon, 2 tsp granulated erythritol or monk fruit sweetener, 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract, and pinch fine salt in a blender. Blend on high for 30 seconds until completely smooth and slightly frothy. Let the batter rest for 2 minutes.

  2. 2

    Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium-low heat. Add half of the 2 tsp unsalted butter and swirl to coat.

  3. 3

    Pour about 2 tablespoons of batter per pancake into the skillet - you should get 3 small pancakes per batch. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes until the edges look set and the bottoms are golden. These pancakes are delicate; flip gently and cook for another 1 to 2 minutes on the second side.

  4. 4

    Transfer to a plate and repeat with the remaining unsalted butter and batter. Serve immediately, topped with sugar-free syrup or fresh berries if desired.
