Whole Grain Spelt Pancakes with Flax Seed and Berries

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Whole Grain Spelt Pancakes with Flax Seed and Berries.

1. Step 1

   Start your pancake adventure by whisking together one egg and two tablespoons of canola oil in a mixing bowl until well combined. Next, pour in one cup of buttermilk and give it a good whisk to blend everything together smoothly. In a separate bowl, mix one cup of whole spelt flour, three tablespoons of flax seed meal, two teaspoons of baking powder, and if you like a touch of sweetness, add two teaspoons of white sugar. Now, it's time to unite the two mixtures! Pour the buttermilk mixture into the flour mixture and stir gently until just combined. Don't overmix; a few lumps are perfectly fine!

2. Step 2

   Heat about two teaspoons of canola oil in a skillet or griddle over medium heat. Once the oil is shimmering, pour about a quarter cup of batter into the hot oil. For a burst of flavor, sprinkle a few fresh blueberries right into the wet batter. Cook the pancakes for about three to four minutes on each side, or until they are beautifully golden brown. Repeat this process with the remaining batter and blueberries, adding more oil to the skillet as needed. Enjoy the delightful aroma filling your kitchen!
