Mom deserves breakfast in bed, so bake up this yummy keto pancake casserole to celebrate her. This sugar free breakfast is easy because you can pre-make the pancakes the night before, bake them in a casserole dish the next morning, and then you have more time to spend with mom. This breakfast dish also makes a great brunch, as its very similar to a sweet and fluffy bread pudding. You can add plenty of delicious toppings like sugar free maple syrup or a sprinkle of chocolate chips. Whatever sweet add-ons you know mom will love can create the perfect Mother's Day sugar free breakfast.
What makes a pancake casserole special? The sweet cream that is poured over the pancakes in the dish soaks in overnight to make them taste amazing. It's a type of custard made with our sugar free maple syrup that covers the pancakes, creating a delicious soufflé taste that'll definitely impress mom. If you've never baked custard sauce before, don't worry! This custard doesn't need tempered eggs and is sugar free. It's a very easy keto breakfast option.
Make the pancakes the day before. Mix all the dry ingredients well then add in the wet ingredients. Once batter is made and has sat for 5 minutes, heat a skillet or pan with some butter over medium low heat. Drop around 2 to 3 tablespoons of batter or use an ice cream scoop. To help cook and flip easier, cover the pan with a lid for 3 to 5 minutes. Flip and cook for an additional 2 minutes. Continue making pancakes until you run out of batter.
In a separate bowl add in the cream mixture ingredients and mix until well incorporated.
Assembly time: Layer the pancakes in a baking pan or dish so that they cover the bottom of the pan, and then layer on top of that until you run out of pancakes. They can be cut in half or left whole. Once the pancakes have been arranged, pour cream mixture evenly over the top. Sprinkle sugar free chocolate chips on top. Cover with foil and place in the fridge for 8 hours or overnight.
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
Bake the casserole covered for 20 to 25 minutes. Then bake an additional 15 to 20 minutes uncovered.
