Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Whole wheat flour
- 0.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon (optional)
- 1.75 cups Milk (or non-dairy alternative)
- 2 large Eggs
- 3 tablespoons Melted butter (or neutral oil)
- 2 tablespoons Maple syrup or honey
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon (if using).
In a medium bowl, combine the milk, eggs, melted butter, maple syrup (or honey), and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth and well combined.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined. The batter should be slightly lumpy; do not overmix.
Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease the surface with butter or oil if necessary.
Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Use the back of a spoon to lightly spread the batter into a circular shape if needed.
Cook the pancakes for 2 to 3 minutes, or until small bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip and cook for an additional 1 to 2 minutes, or until golden brown.
Repeat with the remaining batter, adjusting the heat as needed to prevent burning.
Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings, such as fresh fruit, syrup, or yogurt.
