Ingredients
- Whole wheat flour
- 1 cup
- Baking powder
- 2 teaspoons
- Salt
- 1/4 teaspoon
- Egg
- 1, beaten
- Milk
- 1 cup
- Honey
- 2 tablespoons
- Vegetable oil
- 2 tablespoons
- Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, beat the egg. Then add the milk, honey, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; it's okay if there are a few lumps.
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with cooking spray or a small amount of oil.
- Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more oil or cooking spray as needed.
- Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings such as fresh fruit, maple syrup, yogurt, or a sprinkle of nuts.
Tips
- For an extra flavor boost, try adding a pinch of cinnamon or a handful of blueberries to the batter.
- If you prefer a vegan option, substitute the egg with a flaxseed meal mixture (1 tablespoon flaxseed meal + 2.5 tablespoons water) and use plant-based milk.
