Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Whole wheat flour
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 1 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 1.25 cups Milk (dairy or plant-based)
• 1 large Egg
• 2 tablespoons Maple syrup
• 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 0.5 cups Chopped nuts (walnuts or pecans)
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter or oil (for cooking)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon. Mix well to ensure even distribution of the dry ingredients.

Step 2

In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth.

Step 3

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

Step 4

Fold in the chopped nuts, distributing them evenly throughout the batter.

Step 5

Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or oil.

Step 6

Using a 1/4 cup measuring cup, pour the batter onto the hot skillet to form pancakes. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 7

Flip the pancakes using a spatula and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until both sides are golden brown.

Step 8

Repeat with the remaining batter, regreasing the skillet as needed between batches.

Step 9

Serve the pancakes warm with additional maple syrup, a sprinkle of nuts, or your favorite toppings.
