This Maple Almond Souffle Pancake is a tasty twist on the classic pancake recipe that will make your mornings sweeter and brighter. It's a light and airy pancake that is made by separating the egg yolks from the whites and incorporating them separately for maximum fluffiness. The sweet and nutty flavors of maple syrup and sliced almonds make this pancake special and perfect for a celebratory breakfast or brunch with friends and family. Serve it with extra syrup and butter for extra indulgence.

Instructions

1.	Preheat the oven to 425°F.
2.	In a small bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, maple syrup, and sour cream.
3.	In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form.
4.	Fold the egg yolk mixture into the beaten egg whites until just combined.
5.	Melt the butter in an ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat and add the almond slices. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the almonds are toasted and fragrant.
6.	Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and bake for 10-12 minutes until the pancake is puffed and golden.
