Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 2 servings

  • 1 egg

  • 2 tablespoons canola oil

  • 1 cup buttermilk

  • 1 cup whole spelt flour

  • 3 tablespoons flax seed meal

  • 2 teaspoons baking powder

  • 2 teaspoons white sugar (Optional)

  • 2 teaspoons canola oil, or as needed

  • ½ cup fresh blueberries (Optional)

Directions

  1. Whisk egg and 2 tablespoons canola oil together in a bowl. Add buttermilk; whisk to combine. Mix flour, flax meal, baking powder, and sugar together in a separate bowl. Pour milk mixture into flour mixture; stir to combine.

  2. Heat about 2 teaspoons canola oil in a skillet or griddle over medium heat. Pour about 1/4 cup batter into heated oil. Sprinkle a few blueberries into the wet batter. Cook until pancakes are evenly browned, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Repeat with remaining batter and blueberries.

Cook's Note:

If the batter is too thick, add a little more milk to thin it out. Make sure your skillet is hot before cooking. I use an ice cream scoop to scoop batter onto skillet so the pancakes are even in size.
