Ingredients
- 1. 1 cup almond flour 2. 1/2 cup coconut flour 3. 1 tablespoon psyllium husk powder 4. 4 large eggs 5. 1 1/4 cups unsweetened almond milk 6. 1/4 teaspoon sea salt 7. 1 tablespoon olive oil 8. 2 cups chopped seasonal vegetables (e.g., bell peppers, onions, tomatoes) 9. 1 teaspoon ground turmeric 10. 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin 11. 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger 12. Freshly ground black pepper, to taste 13. 4 large eggs (for poaching)
Instructions
- Prepare the keto injera pancakes by whisking together almond flour, coconut flour, psyllium husk powder, and salt in a bowl. Gradually add eggs and almond milk, stirring until smooth. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes to thicken.
- Heat olive oil in a non stick pan over medium heat. Pour about 1/4 cup of the batter onto the heated pan, spreading it evenly to create a pancake shape. Cook for 3 4 minutes until the bottom is golden brown and then flip, cooking for another 2 3 minutes. Repeat with the remaining batter, stacking the cooked injera pancakes on a plate.
- In another pan, sauté the seasonal vegetables in olive oil over medium heat until tender. Season with turmeric, cumin, ginger, and black pepper to taste. Cook for 2 3 minutes more, then remove from heat and set aside.
- Poach the eggs in a separate pan filled with simmering water and vinegar, following your preferred poaching method. Carefully remove each cooked egg with a slotted spoon and place them on top of the sautéed vegetables.
- To serve, arrange two injera pancakes on individual plates, followed by the spiced vegetable salad and poached eggs. Enjoy your flavorful and nutritious Keto Ethiopian Injera Pancakes breakfast!
