Servings: 12
Servings: 1g
Ingredients
- Whole Wheat Flour – 1 ⅓ cup.
- Cornstarch– 3 tablespoons.
- Ground Cinnamon
- Baking Powder– 2 tsp
- Flaxseed Meal– ⅓ cup
- Granulated Sugar– 1 tablespoon.
- You can use a Sugar Alternative or maple syrup
- Egg-1. Feel free to use an vegan egg replacer for the egg
- Vanilla Extract– 2 teaspoons.
- Milk- 1 ½ cups. You can use a nut milk for the milk
- Optional- Vegan Chocolate Chips– ½ cup.
Instructions
- In a medium mixing bowl, use a whisk or a fork to mix together the whole wheat flour and the cornstarch. Then add in the ground cinnamon, baking powder and flaxseed meal. Attempt to break up any clumps in the ingredients at this point as well.
- Next, in a large mixing bowl, beat together the sugar and the egg.
- For the next step, we will add the ingredients from the first bowl to the second bowl. Do this by adding half of the ingredients at a time, mixing gently between additions. Then add the vanilla extract and the milk. Mix this until just blended as it is important to to not overmix the batter. If you are adding chocolate chips gently fold them in using a rubber spatula.
- Set the batter aside (I often place my batter in the refrigerator if I will be taking longer than twenty minutes to make my pancakes).
- Gently spray your skillet or griddle with nonstick (or use the method of your choice). Preheat the skillet on medium heat.
- Cook your pancakes on medium heat. When you see bubbles forming on the top it is probably time to flip your pancakes and finish cooking until they begin to brown and the insides have been cooked.
Recipe Notes
You can make your own flaxseed meal by grinding flaxseeds in a food processor or a good blender such as a Vitamix. One cup of flaxseed should make around 1 ⅓ cups of meal.
I also mentioned that we will be using whole wheat flour to make this recipe.Make this recipe vegan by using a vegan egg replacer for the egg, a nut milk for the milk, and maple syrup for the sugar.
You can make this recipe gluten free by using a gluten free flour in place of the whole wheat flour.
