Ingredients

  • 1.5 cups Almond Flour
  • 0.5 cup Coconut Flour
  • 1 tbsp Psyllium Husk Powder
  • 0.5 tsp Salt
  • 1 cup Hot Water
  • 0.75 cup Scallions, chopped
  • 2 tbsp Sesame Oil
  • 2 tbsp Coconut Aminos
  • 2 tbsp Avocado Oil (for frying)

Original measure retained: its cup/spoon or fluid-volume standard is unspecified.

Instructions

  1. 1In a large bowl, combine 1.5 cups almond flour, 0.5 cup coconut flour, 1 tbsp psyllium husk powder, and 0.5 tsp salt. Whisk them together thoroughly to ensure there are no clumps.
  2. 2Gradually add 1 cup of hot water to the dry ingredients while mixing with a spoon or your hands until a cohesive dough forms. Turn the dough out onto a clean surface and knead for 3-5 minutes until it is smooth and elastic.
  3. 3Divide the dough into 4 equal portions. Take one portion and roll it into a thin circle, about 20.32-25.4 cm in diameter, on a lightly floured surface (you can use a little extra almond flour if needed).
  4. 4Brush the surface of the rolled-out dough evenly with 1 tbsp of the sesame oil. Sprinkle half of the 0.75 cup chopped scallions over the oiled surface, then drizzle with 1 tbsp of the coconut aminos.
  5. 5Starting from one edge, tightly roll the dough into a long log. Once rolled, coil the log into a flat spiral shape, tucking the end underneath.
  6. 6Gently flatten the spiral with your hands or a rolling pin to form a pancake about 15.24 cm in diameter. Repeat steps 4-7 with the remaining dough portions, sesame oil, scallions, and coconut aminos.
  7. 7Heat 1 tbsp of the avocado oil in a 25.4 cm non-stick skillet over medium heat, approximately 175°C.
  8. 8Carefully place one flattened pancake into the hot skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes per side, until the pancake is golden brown and crispy, and you can see flaky layers. Repeat with the remaining pancakes, adding the remaining 1 tbsp avocado oil to the skillet for the last two.
  9. 9Transfer the cooked scallion pancakes to a plate and let them rest for 1-2 minutes before slicing and serving.
