Hi Philsta,
I am guessing that you've got your heat too high in both your stove top and your oven. Try lower heat. What kind of pan do you cook your pancakes in? I got a nice no-stick kind and then making pancakes became very easy, after lots of failed pancakes in my past.
There are good almond flour recipes at elanaspantry.com
Good luck and try not to get too frustrated. If you become like an artist/scientist in the kitchen then you will develop a sense for temperature and timing with your recipes. Let us know how it goes, and let us know if you end up using coconut flour and liking it better. If you don't like the egg yolks maybe you can just use egg whites?
