Great recipe! Oat Fibre isn't really readily available here in Australia, any alternatives that will do the same job? Maybe Psyllium Husk?

Psyllium will act completely differently in baked goods. You can try using 1/2 the amount of coconut flour, but it will affect texture and carb count.

Is oat bran the same as oat fiber?

Oat bran and oat fiber are completely different. Oat fiber is the pulverized outer hull, it's not part of the grain itself at all. It's 100% completely insoluble. Since it's not digested it will not affect blood sugar.

I have made many different kinds of keto pancakes, these are by far the best. They come out thick and I really like the lemon zest.

Tracey where did you get oat fiber?

Kristin, if you are in the USA, oat fiber can be sourced from Netrition or Amazon. It's a niche product not frequently available in stores. If you are not in the USA, you may be able to get it from iHerb.

Cassava flour is extremely high carb. For baking some people see good results using sesame seed flour in place of almond flour. A 1:1 ratio should work!

Tracey, Netrition sells it for $3.99 a lb vs Amazon price of $13.43 a lb. Even with shipping, it ends up being about $3 less from Netrition. :)

I made these this morning for my kids. I used 1/3 c of coconut flower instead of the oat fiber and they turned out great. They taste a little bit like cream puffs. My 8 year old loved them and even said "Mom, thanks for making me have wonderful childhood memories! I love these pancakes!" :D

These are delicious but how are the measurements being translated? I usually go by Gramm but 75g of oat fiber was way to much and a lot more than 3/4 cup. Ended up winging it and adding lots of cream.

the batter I made came out very thick and does not pour like regular pancake batter. Am I missing a liquid ingredient that is meant to soften the ingredients

Tried these but felt they had far too many eggs for 4 servings & smelt egg & left an eggy aftertaste.

We tried these and I think the oat fiber ruined them. They were terrible. Will keep looking for another pancake recipe. :(

These are the best low carb pancakes I've made! The texture is fantastic. I skipped the blueberries and lemon zest and added 1/3 cup erythritol and 1 tsp vanilla extract. Delicious!

Couldn’t find oat fibre in shops in Australia so I used oat bran. They were the worst pancakes I’ve ever made; way too salty (and I didn’t add any salt). Would be beneficial for The Diet Doctor to provide alternative ingredients for those that don’t reside in the US.

Unfortunately there is not a good substitute for oat fiber. You may prefer one of our other pancake recipes.

The measurements are wrong on the App, used 75ml of almond flour and 75ml of psylium husk. The batter was more like cookie dough so added about 200ml of water. I’m suprised they actually turned out right.
