Lakanto Pancake and Waffle Mix - Sweetened with Monk Fruit Sweetener and Erythritol, Breakfast, Flapjacks, Almond Flour, Low Net Carbs, Gluten Free, Keto Diet Friendly - 16 oz

This low net carb mix is tasty and Gluten Free. The pancakes and waffles are very light and fluffy. I intend to try making some other pastries, like pie crusts, and maybe cookies with it. I have high hopes. The only drawback I can see is that it has almond flour, for those of you with nut allergies, sorry. Like all Low-Net-Carb and GF items, it is a bit pricey. I'm, however bought the smaller package to try it out and recently received my second, larger, 16 oz. package. Even if my experimentation with other pastries doesn't work out, I'll buy it again.

I bought this product as I started a ketogenic diet and the net carbs for these pancakes were the best I could find. I was skeptical due to some of the reviews, as people seem to either love or not love this product. I NEVER write reviews, but I LOVE this product so much that I felt compelled to chime in with my experience. The flavor is fantastic, the ease in mixing up egg, water and coconut oil, could not had been easier. I also added a tsp of cinnamon as I like to dress up my food. The pan cake batter does come out unusually thick, therefore I simply added a bit more water until I reached the consistency that I felt would work best for me. Once the pancake is cooked, it does have a bit of a slight dry look, but what gluten free baked product out there does not? I turned these fabulous pancakes into the most delightful treat (trust me, dry was noticed when I got done with these) and as a result I am now an addict of this product! One half cup serving is 110 calories (dry) so this is an extremely calorie friendly product as well. I get about 8 smallish to medium sized pancakes per 1/2 cup of product. I eat 4 and put 4 in the fridge until the next morning as amazingly enough they do heat up fairly well. Now, this is the part where these pancakes become downright sinful. I add 3 tsp total of smuckers sugar free strawberry jelly evenly spread out to the tops of these 4 pancakes. I then add about 3 TBS of Lakanto (or smuckers sugar free) sugar free maple syrup. I also could not resist but to squirt a tbs or two of sugar free whipped cream on the top. The end result is a delicious substitute to strawberry shortcake. I am big on calorie count (have lost 117 pounds to date with only 10 more to go counting calories) and this entire 4 pancake meal with the sugar free syrup, jelly and whipped cream comes out to be around 350 total calories. I have been eating it daily for breakfast and I am now on my 4th bag of this stuff!! Yes, as mentioned it does appear a tad bit dry compared to your traditional high carb, gluten filled, higher calorie buttermilk pancake. However, for what this product offers (for me, low calorie, low carb, no sugar and for my husband gluten free) it is absolutely beyond amazing. I have since gone off ketogenic and back to my standard calorie counting diet, but for those who are eating the ketogenic way, I was able to maintain moderate levels of ketosis while eating this product for breakfast every other day. I did add lots of butter to the pancakes while on the ketgenic diet to aid in maintaining ketosis, which for those who choose to eat that way know healthy fats is a bit part of the ketogenic life style. Excellent product though!

This latest batch is sweeter and apparently has more leavening. I had gotten used to the subtle sweet flavor of the last formulation. This batter is also a bit thinner despite the recipe indicating to use 1/3 cup compared to the previous 1/4 cup of mix to the same amount of wet ingredients. My waffle maker went crazy, spewing out batter from the sides. I honestly prefer the last formulation. I am acutely aware of the sweetness now. I’m thankful there is no strange aftertaste, so at least there’s that. The waffles are fragile upon removing from the maker, though they do firm up after removal somewhat. I’m sure this appeals to a broader audience, as anything I really like is generally discontinued or changed. Here is a case in point... There is no reason to use syrup now or a berry sauce. I may figure out how to make waffles from scratch now to avoid the sweetness (from a sweetener manufacturer). I have enjoyed the convenience to be sure.

Update 02.20.2021: I don't know what they did but these have gone from not bad to downright horrible. It looks like they made some changes to the recipe and now you have to add vanilla, and they dropped the coconut oil. This tastes like over sweetened eggs with almond flour added to them. Even adding cinnamon to the batter to help improve the flavor doesn't work now. The pancakes were okay and edible before they made this change, but now they are just bad. I had my doubts. I'm not a fan of low carb foods, similar to this. They usually turn out grainy, and bland. For some reason, low carb/keto bread products, and baked goods make me gag, so I can be a very fussy critic with this type of food. My expectations were really low. But, I was surprised how good these were. After the second try at making these, I realized they take a little longer to cook than regular pancakes, and I added a little more water, than suggested, to thin the the batter. Doing that made them a little less heavy. Aunt Jeremiah's thick and rich sugar free pancake syrup (0 Carbs) is a great match for these pancakes. Adding cinnamon also makes these taste much better. Totally satisfied my urge to eat regular pancakes.

I love these! The pancakes turn out really good! They arent keto I dont think so that's false advertising but they are low carb and low sugar with way better ingredients than regular pancakes, which I never let myself have. After going on a keto diet, I suddenly stopped being able to stomach eggs. I really crave carbs at breakfast so this has been my solution. I make up a few pancakes and I know they arent keto but they're low carb, low sugar and keep me full all morning. They're easy to prepare and taste amazing! Even the batter tastes good. I add a little stevia into my batter. They cook really quick - so quick that I'm still getting the hang of timing so I dont burn them. But I even thought they were good when I burned them a bit! Maybe I was just so happy to not have to eat eggs! I just bought a waffle maker so I am going to try to make waffles as I think itll br easier than pancakes. I've never liked making pancakes but that is a testament to how amazing I think this pancake mix is. I dont really like heavy pancakes at restaurants so I guess if you're expecting that, you may think they taste bad. I think they taste great considering they're low carb! They taste better than eggs, which I can no longer stomach right now!

En mi caso, por haberme iniciado con la keto extraño alimentos que antes comía. Este producto me permite comer lo más parecido a los hotcakes pero de una forma saludable. Su sabor es agradable y más si lo acompañas con la miel de Maple de la misma marca.
