Golden Einkorn Pancakes
I have tried many pancake recipes over the years. This is our current favorite. I love grinding fresh Einkorn wheat berries for this recipe in my Vitamix. With slightly modified ingredients, pancakes easily become a superfood.
- 190 g grams Einkorn wheat berries (can substitute 190 g ground Einkorn wheat flour (~2 cups))
- 2 Tbsp flax seed
- 1 Tbsp baking powder
- 1 Tbsp brown sugar
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup milk (your choice)
- 1/2 cup yogurt, plain
- 2 Tbsp butter, melted (grass fed when possible)
- Grind wheat berries and flax seeds in your Vitamix or grain mill until consistency of flour. I use my Vitamix and start at 1 and slowly increase to 10, for about 1 minute.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine wheat/flax seed, baking powder, brown sugar, & sea salt. Mix with a whisk.
- In a small bowl combine eggs, milk, yogurt and melted butter.
- Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients. Stir just until mixed.
- Pour batter into a hot skillet, cook until golden brown on both sides. Einkorn flour does not bubble like other flours do, so watch the bottoms carefully.
- Serve warm with real maple syrup and grass fed butter.
This recipe has been adapted from the Whole Grain Einkorn Pancakes recipe on the Jovial website. They are a wonderful resource for using Einkorn flour. If you need more specifics on this recipe or working with Einkorn, hop on over to their site and start exploring.
Note: 1 cup of ground Einkorn is the same as 95 grams of wheat berries.
I have not tried this recipe with other types of wheat.
I purchase my Einkorn wheat berries from Azure Standard. You can also find them for sale on the Jovial website.
