19. ### Step-by-Step Instructions:
21. 1. **Preheat the Air Fryer**
22. Start by preheating your air fryer to 350°F (175°C). This ensures that the pancakes will cook evenly and have a nice, golden-brown exterior.
24. 2. **Prepare the Pancake Batter**
25. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined. This step is crucial for ensuring the pancakes rise nicely.
27. 3. **Add Wet Ingredients**
28. Add in the eggs, pumpkin puree, and melted butter to the dry ingredients. Mix everything thoroughly with a whisk or fork until the batter is smooth and free of lumps. You can adjust the consistency by adding a little more almond flour if needed.
30. 4. **Spray Non-Stick Spray**
31. Lightly spray each air fryer basket with non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking. This will help your pancakes come out perfectly every time without any mess!
33. 5. **Cook the Pancakes**
34. - Pour 1/4 cup of batter into the preheated air fryer basket for each pancake.
35. - Cook for about 3-4 minutes on one side until bubbles form and the edges start to look dry, then flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes on the other side.
37. 6. **Repeat**
38. Continue cooking in batches until all batter is used up. Make sure not to overcrowd the air fryer basket; this can affect the cooking process and cause sticking or uneven cooking.
40. 7. **Serve Immediately**
41. As soon as the pancakes are cooked, remove them from the air fryer basket using tongs. Serve hot with your favorite keto-friendly toppings such as whipped cream, a drizzle of maple syrup, or even some fresh berries for an extra touch of sweetness.
43. ### Tips and Variations:
44. - **Flavor Enhancements**: Feel free to add spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, or ginger to the batter for added flavor.
45. - **Add-ins**: Consider adding chopped nuts, coconut flakes, or pumpkin seeds into your batter before cooking for a crunchy texture.
46. - **Nutritional Boost**: Use flaxseeds or chia seeds as an egg substitute in this recipe for additional fiber and nutrition.
