Spelt Flour Pancakes are a tasty and healthy way to start the day! Made with simple, wholesome ingredients, these pancakes are a delicious way to incorporate spelt flour in your recipe repertoire. I love how fluffy and tender they are!
Ingredients
-
1 ¼ cup whole spelt flour
-
3 tsp baking powder
-
½ tsp baking soda
-
¼ tsp sea salt
-
½ tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 2 large eggs egg whites separated from the yolks and whipped
- 2 tbsp melted butter
-
1 tbsp pure maple syrup
-
1 tsp pure vanilla extract optional
- 1 medium-sized apple skin left on
-
¼ tsp ground cinnamon
-
pinch ground nutmeg
-
2 tbsp pure maple syrup
Directions
Baking Directions
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together all the dry ingredients until thoroughly combined.
In a separate medium sized bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, egg yolks (reserve egg whites in another bowl), melted and cooled butter and maple syrup.
Stir dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined. Don’t overmix.
In a medium-sized bowl, beat the egg whites until soft peaks form. Gently fold the egg whites into the pancake batter.
Note: I have made this recipe by doing this folded in egg white trick and also just adding eggs normally. Both ways are delicious. The egg white trick just makes for fluffier pancakes.
Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F. Use the oven as a warmer for the cooked pancakes.
Warm 1 tbsp. of butter or oil in a pan on medium heat and wait until the pan preheats. Using a ⅓ cup measure, pour pancake batter into the pan. Flip when you see little bubbles form on the top of the pancake and the outside edges are starting to set. Flip the pancakes and cook for about a minute on the other side.
Once cooked, place the pancakes on a sheet tray in your preheated oven to keep them warm. Continue the process until all the batter has been used. Enjoy!
Cinnamon Apple Topping Directions
Leaving the skin on, chop an apple into small pieces. Stir in cinnamon and nutmeg and maple syrup until the apples are evenly coated.
Melt 2 tablespoon of butter in a skillet. Add the apples and cook until softened and lightly caramelized.
Recipe Note
If you don’t have buttermilk in your fridge you can make your own buttermilk easily at home. You just need regular milk and either lemon juice or vinegar.
Make sure your pan is properly preheated before you pour your first pancake into it.
