Whole Wheat Pancakes
Description
This Whole Wheat Pancakes recipe starts with combining whole wheat flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt, followed by mixing wet ingredients including room temperature buttermilk, eggs, and vegetable oil. Pouring the wet ingredients into the dry results in a thick, somewhat lumpy batter that rests before cooking. Pancakes are cooked on a preheated skillet at 350-375°F, poured out in ¼ cup portions, and flipped once bubbles appear and the bottoms are browned. The finished pancakes have a tender interior with lightly crisped edges and a rich, satisfying flavor from whole wheat. They can be prepared in batches and kept warm in a low oven without stacking to prevent sogginess.
Ingredients
- 2 cups whole wheat flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2½ cups buttermilk room temperature
- 2 egg room temperature
- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
Instructions
- In a medium bowl add the flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Whisk the dry ingredients and set aside.
- In a separate bowl whisk the buttermilk, eggs, and vegetable oil.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. The mixture may seem thick and a bit lumpy.
- Let the batter sit and heat a skillet to 350-375°F.
- Pour ¼ cup of batter onto the skillet use a spoon to spread the batter out a bit. Cook until bubbles appear and the bottom is browned, about 1-1½ minutes.
- Flip the pancake and cook for another 2 minutes.
Notes
- Test one pancake first to adjust skillet temperature for even cooking.
- Make several pancakes ahead and keep warm in a 200°F oven; avoid stacking to prevent sogginess.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 2-3 days or freeze for 2-3 months.
- Reheat leftovers in the microwave, toaster, or in a covered baking dish at 350°F.
