Printable version (pdf)

Serves: 4
Prep Time: 10 mins
Cook Time: 5-10 mins


INGREDIENTS

  • 1 cup whole wheat flour, or 1/2 cup whole wheat flour plus 1/2 cup buckwheat, oat or spelt flour.
  • 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 cup buttermilk, kefir or plain low-fat yogurt
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vegetable oil, plus a bit more for the griddle

DIRECTIONS

  1. Whisk together flour, salt and baking soda in a medium-sized bowl.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together buttermilk, eggs and oil. Whisk buttermilk mixture into flour mixture just until there are no lumps. If necessary, add a bit of milk or water to obtain a batter that is not too thick or too runny.
  3. Pancakes: Heat griddle or large pan. When heated (so water sizzles on pan), spray with cooking spray or apply small amount of oil so pancakes do not stick. Ladle about ¼ cup of batter onto pan. Cook about 2-3 minutes or until you see bubbles forming in batter. Flip pancakes and cook another 2 minutes or until browned and cooked through.
  4. Waffles: Preheat waffle iron. Spray with cooking spray or apply small amount of oil so waffles do not stick. Pour about ½ cup batter into waffle iron and press down. Cook until waffle is brown and crisp on outside. Repeat with rest of the batter.
