Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
- 1 teaspoons Cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 2 large Eggs
- 1.25 cups Milk
- 2 tablespoons Pure maple syrup
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup Zucchini, grated and lightly squeezed
- 2 teaspoons Oil or butter (for greasing the pan)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Stir until evenly mixed.
In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and melted butter until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix; it's okay if the batter is slightly lumpy.
Fold the grated and lightly squeezed zucchini into the batter, ensuring it is evenly distributed.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with a small amount of oil or butter.
Using a ladle or measuring cup, pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set.
Flip the pancake and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed between batches.
Serve the pancakes warm with additional maple syrup and toppings of choice, such as fresh fruit or nuts.
