Ingredients

Servings

Strawberry Jam

  • 2 cups strawberries cored and halved
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried lavender
  • 2 to 3 tablespoons chia seeds

Pancakes

  • 1/2 cup spelt flour
  • 1/2 cup cornmeal fine to medium-ground
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons butter plus extra for cooking
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 2 egg large
  • 1/2 cup milk whole; up to 3/4 cup
  • nut butter for serving

Instructions

  1. In a small sauce pan, combine the strawberries with the lemon juice, maple syrup, and lavender. Heat over medium-low heat until the strawberries are soft enough to mash, 10 to 15 minutes. Mash with the back of a fork or spoon then stir in the chia. For thicker jam, use 3 tablespoons.
  2. Reduce the heat to low and cook for another minute or so. Remove from heat, transfer to a jar, and let sit to cool. As the jam cools, the mixture will thicken.
  3. Once the jam is cooling, make the pancakes. In a small butter warmer or sauce pan, heat butter and maple syrup together until butter has melted. Remove from heat an let cool.
  4. Combine dry ingredients in a bowl. Crack in the eggs, measure in the milk, and add the cooled butter/maple syrup mixture. Stir until just combined. Set aside while heating the skillet.
  5. Heat a skillet over medium heat. When skillet is hot (if you flick water onto the skillet, it should sizzle), add roughly 1/2 tablespoon of butter. Take about ¼ cup of batter and pour onto skillet. Let cook for 1-2 minutes (until the pancakes begins to bubble slightly. Flip and let cook for another 1-2 minutes until pancake is cooked through.
  6. Repeat with remaining batter and serve with a drizzle or spread of your favorite nut butter and a drizzle of the strawberry jam.
