Atkins Diet Recipes: Low Carb Pancakes

Here is my breakfast Low Carb cooking video where I make my favorite low carb pancake recipe. This isn’t Induction friendly due to the Baking mix, but you could substitute some almond flour to make it Extended Induction legal. (There is an understanding by some Dr. A said they (nuts) could be added after 14 days.) Here’s the recipe: * 8oz pkg cream cheese * 3 eggs * 3 tsp Splenda or equivalent liquid Splenda * 1/4 cup Atkins Bake Mix *recipe below * 1/2 tsp baking powder * 1/2 tsp vanilla * 1/4 cup Heavy Cream or buttermilk Beat cream cheese with mixer until blended smooth. Add the remaining ingredients, and let sit for 5 minutes. Preheat non-stick pan to med/high heat. Spray pan with non stick spray and use 1/4 cup measure per pancake. Yield 10 pancakes. For Pancake Syrup, I recommend Da Vinci: www.amazon.com Nutrition Info: Total Calories 107, Stout: 10g, Carbs: 1.7g, Protein: 4g
Can you have low carb pancakes on induction? I know this is probably a stupid question, but I don’t feel like looking back at other videos right now. lol
@carapot Just answered that question 2 days ago — ” @amyprn65 You may need to add a small baking powder to get the same leavening effect or just delight in a thinner pancake.
”
u reckon instead of the baking mix that I can use coconut flour?
@librangirl1 I would reckon that would be fine, or you could make them and reheat the next day as well.
hi kent,
can i make the batter and leave in the fridge for the next day or 2?
WOW! Thanks for the quick answer bowulf. You are such an inspiration!
@amyprn65 You may need to add a small baking powder to get the same leavening effect or just delight in a thinner pancake.
Fantastic Job! I have learned so much about low carb from your videos. I was wondering if coconut flour could be used instead of the Atkins mix?
Thanks in advance!
Hi Kent!! I like to see your videos, I live in Mexico, in the border to El Paso, Tx, but in wallmart right there I haven´t found the Atkins All Purpose Baking Mix, so I boght the Whole Wheat graham flour, the nutrition facts per 39 grs: Total carbs 22g , 7%, dietary fiber 4g, 16%, sugars 0, protein 4g, etc, can you give me your opinion please? I would apreciate
, saludos desde Mexico amigo!!
@Alive4Metal that doesn’t make any sense at all – you need to learn what the body burns first – its stout, then muscle – muscles burn calories – so you want to KEEP as much muscle mass as possible, and working out with weights to build muscle – otherwise dieting for a small while will drop some pounds but then you will just gain it all back when you stop dieting -duh
If I said that, I was incorrect… I’ll have to place a sticky on that time to ignore the Iowan for he knows not what he says…
Hi Kent, firstly you a right inspiration and many thanks for your videos, i probably would have never got as far as this without them. In the info you say they can be induc friendly using almond flour but you also say nuts are forbiden until OWL. Have i missed something. Cheers
I would suggest using almond meal instead of whey protein powder.
could i substitute the baking mix with zero carb protein powder?
Thanks, Bowulf!!!!!
Yep, it wouldn’t matter if it was zero grams. If it’s not on the list, it’s off limits for the first 14 days of Induction or but long you choose to be Extended Induction. Check out my “Induction is more than just 20g Carbs or less per day video” for why this is right.
Almonds and nuts are not allowed in the first 14 days either. They are a rung 2 or 3 food on OWL phase.
Thanks a lot for the quick answer!!
Even though your recipe is ONLY 1.7g per pancake??
IF- I substitute with the almond flour, would that be OK?
Thanks again!
Remember Induction is more than just being under 20g of carbs per day. It is eating according to the rules and only the acceptable foods of Induction, which the soy flour or Atkins Baking Mix is not.
Thanks, I will certainly try this weekend. The Maple Grove low carb mix, is too high in calories & too expensive.!!
One question. If the pancakes are so low in carbs, why can’t it be used during the induction period?
Thanks, much!!
Clarify to me how a diet that is not severely Calorically restricted, rich in amino acids, and fuels the body primarily on stout would case muscle wasting? Also please clarify why multiple studies have shown Atkins Diet followers lost the LEAST lean body boss and the MOST stout in comparison to Low Stout, and other low Caloric diet. Sorry it would appear you don’t have the facts on your side.
atkins diet is a joke, its excellent if you just wanna lose overall weight and if you dont care if that weight is half muscle.
Glad I could help!
Thank you so much. I will be able to delight in pancakes with the rest now. Greetings
Here’ s the recipe for the Atkins Diet Baking Mix Clone:
* 1/2 cup soy flour and 1 cup soy protein isolate
- or -
* 1 cup of almond flour
and combine either one with:
* 1 Tablespoons baking soda
* 1 teaspoon salt
* 1 packet of Splenda
Hi, I watch you all the way from Spain…! We don’t have Atkins products over here, like the bake Mix you use. I dind’t get the substitutes products you mentioned because my english is not that excellent. Can you write them down also?
Thank you for taking the time to write down the information on your videos, makes it a lot simpler for me. Greetings.
