Notes
Expert Tips For These Healthy Wheat Pancakes
- To reduce the amount of lumps in your batter, first mix your dry ingredients and wet ingredients separately. Then, make a well in the dry ingredients, pour in the wet ingredients, and stir a few times. Be gentle - overmixing will result in flat pancakes!
- Let the batter sit for about 10-15 minutes while you heat your griddle or skillet.
- Use a cookie scoop or pancake dispenser, to measure out the portions.
- Flip the pancakes only when the edges look a little dry and you see bubbles on top. They are ready when both sides are golden brown!
