Ingredients
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup low-fat buttermilk
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
- 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 as needed cooking spray or a small amount of vegetable oil
Directions
Step 1
In a medium bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Step 2
In another bowl, combine the low-fat buttermilk, egg, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth.
Step 3
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Gently stir until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are fine.
Step 4
Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with cooking spray or a small amount of vegetable oil.
Step 5
Using a 1/4 cup measuring cup, pour the batter onto the skillet to form pancakes. Cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set.
Step 6
Flip the pancakes carefully and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.
Step 7
Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed.
Step 8
Serve warm with your favorite toppings such as fresh fruit, a drizzle of honey, or a dollop of yogurt for a healthy start to your day.
