Ingredients

• 1 cup whole wheat flour
• 2 tablespoons ground flaxseed
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 1.25 cups milk (dairy or plant-based)
• 1 large egg
• 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 tablespoon butter or oil
• 1 tablespoon additional butter or oil (for cooking)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, ground flaxseed, baking powder, and salt.

Step 2

In a separate bowl, combine the milk, egg, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, and melted butter or oil. Whisk until smooth.

Step 3

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.

Step 4

Let the batter rest for 5 minutes to allow the flaxseed to absorb some liquid and thicken slightly.

Step 5

Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat, and lightly coat it with additional butter or oil.

Step 6

Using a 1/4-cup measure, pour batter onto the skillet to form each flapjack. Avoid overcrowding the pan.

Step 7

Cook the flapjacks for about 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles appear on the surface and the edges begin to look set. Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown.

Step 8

Transfer the cooked flapjacks to a plate and keep warm while you cook the remaining batter.

Step 9

Serve warm with your favorite toppings, such as fresh fruit, yogurt, nuts, or a drizzle of maple syrup.
