Ingredients

• 1 cup Whole wheat flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 1 unit Large egg
• 1 cup Milk
• 2 tablespoons Pure maple syrup
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter or coconut oil, melted
• 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil or butter (for cooking)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon until well combined.

Step 2

In a separate bowl, beat the egg, then whisk in the milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and melted butter or coconut oil until smooth.

Step 3

Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter may have lumps, and that's okay.

Step 4

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

Step 5

Scoop approximately 1/4 cup of batter onto the heated skillet for each pancake, spacing them apart to allow room for spreading.

Step 6

Cook the pancakes for about 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges appear set. Flip the pancakes and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown on both sides.

Step 7

Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate and keep them warm while you repeat with the remaining batter.

Step 8

Serve with your favorite toppings such as fresh fruits, nuts, yogurt, or a drizzle of maple syrup. Enjoy!
