Keto Pancakes
Bojack Horseman’s Chocolate Chip Pancakes
It’s time for more Keto pancakes! And this time I’m taking inspiration from Youtube legend, Binging with Babish and making Bojack Horseman‘s chocolate chip pancakes. If you have no clue what either of those are, let me bring you up to speed. Binging with Babish a Youtube show where host Andrew Rea alias Oliver Babish re-creates food from famous movies and TV shows. Bojack Horseman is a Netflix show and on the show Bojack makes some chocolate chip pancakes. So I’m making a Keto version of those pancakes. And that’s not all, I’m making one version with coconut flour and another with almond flour. Enjoy!
Of Flours and Sweeteners
Let’s start with the flours. My Indian readers can refer to my Keto shopping guide for where to source both. In terms of the sweeteners I used the Lankato maple flavoured syrup which is Keto friendly. However a good alternative is a few drops of stevia or a tsp of erythritol just for a bit of sweetness. You can also make this recipe dairy free by replacing the heavy whipping cream with some coconut cream.
When it comes to chocolate I used Lily’s stevia sweetened chocolate chips. There are other companies that make these as well so anything that is available will do. If you live in a country where you don’t get stevia sweetened chocolate you can use Lindt 85% or 90% instead, just remember that they will have more carbs per serving.

Both the above macros are WITHOUT the chocolate chips because I thought I’d leave that open to people in case they want to replace the chocolate chips with something else. You could use blueberries, maybe some other berries. It’s better to have a blank canvas to work with I feel. Either way just weight out the chocolate chips, scan the barcode on the bag and input them separately. It’s pretty easy. The macros also do not include any butter/oil used to cook the pancakes.
Keto Pancakes
Ingredients
Almond Flour Pancakes
- 50 grams Almond Flour I use this
- 50 grams Heavy Whipping Cream
- 1 Egg
- 1 Tbsp Maple Flavoured Syrup (Keto Friendly) I use this
- 1/2 Tsp Vanilla Extract I use this
- 1/2 Tsp Baking Powder I use this
- Lily's Chocolate Chips I use this
- a pinch of salt
Coconut Flour Pancakes
- 15 grams Coconut Flour I use this
- 30 grams Heavy Whipping Cream
- 1 Egg
- 1 Tbsp Maple Flavoured Syrup (Keto Friendly) I use this
- 1/2 Tsp Baking Powder I use this
- 1/2 Tsp Vanilla Extract I use this
- a pinch of salt
- Lily's Chocolate Chips I use this
Instructions
- The method of making both pancakes is pretty much the same. Mix all the ingredients in a bowl. I would recommend sifting your coconut flour and even almond flour if you can. Either add all dry ingredients first to the bowl and then the wet ones or add the wet ones first, give it a good mix and then add the dry ones and mix again. Now honestly either way is fine.
- Now cook the pancakes in some butter or olive oil/avocado oil in a frying pan. Once the butter melts pour in a ladle of the pancake batter, keep the heat on low/medium. Once you pour the batter sprinkle the chocolate chips on top and cover and cook with a lid for like 2 minutes and then you can flip the pancake over and cook for about 30-45 seconds before removing.
- You can mix the chocolate chips in with the batter but from my own trials I much preferred adding them later. Either way it's your choice. Cook all the pancakes and serve with butter and Keto friendly syrup. Enjoy!
I just made the coconut version for me and my kids. Was loved by all of us and it will be a repeat meal for sure!!!!
my mum who’s not keto or low carb even loved them
I will try these pancakes. Looks fantastic!
Thanks Sahil,
Just made the keto pancakes – so delicious
You said prep time 5 mins – which I doubted
BUT WOW 5 mins and easy and delicious.
Ps I did the berry compote not chocolate
Hope all going well with you and your family.
Take care
hehe thank you LM, glad it worked.
Me and my boyfriend just started the keto diet and we already love it, I was a huge pancake eater and I got your receipe and tried it and I’m in LOVE!!! Thank you so much for all your receipes and ideas.
Just tried these, but didn’t like them. The texture wasn’t like pancakes at all, was very mushy and fell apart easily.
What if someone wants to be dairy free. What changes can we make. Or maybe pancakes are just not for us lol.
Coconut cream and almond milk are your friends.
I made the pancakes yesterday after a 4-hour hike. Tried the one with the coconut flour. Added orange extract too. So, had 1 with vanilla & 2 with orange. Both were super delicious though I gravitated more towards the orange. Just love your recipes, man! Keep them coming. May I ask if you could come up with some keto custard sauce & keto cream puff recipes please!!!
Just found your blog and I LOVE it, thank you so much for all your recipes!
We made these this morning using both versions. We did not care for the almond flour version at all. It could be the age of the almond flour but we had to use less flour and even then it was too thick. We had to add water. The coconut flour version was perfect pancake consistency using recipe measurements. Held its shape cooking and cutting. Good flavor and pancake-like texture. Will make the coconut version again. Thank you.
Hi, a lot of your recipes use heavy whipping cream. I can’t seem to find any in India. Can you please let me know which brand you use and where you get it from?
HI loved ur recipes.Can i use ground almond instead of almound flour?
Yes it’s the same thing.
Thanks for the coconut flour recipe! My pancakes were fab! I made 5 servings using 25G-perfect consistency 🙂
These are the BEST Keto pancakes. I’ve tried them all over the years. All the Youtubers, blogs- but you are the only person that can actually COOK! People forget that flavor is important. I always go to your channel for recipes. Thank you!
thank you so much!
