Seriously Perfect Pancakes

I acknowledge that these pancakes aren’t particularly “healthy” by my standards (in that they’re made of wheat flour and have a bit of sugar in them), but they’re homemade and easy to accomplish on a weekend morning when you want a treat for breakfast (or lunch or dinner 🙂 ). Feel free to substitute the sugar with an alternative sweetener, if you like. Just add it to the milk instead of to the flour. Please pin this recipe![pinit]

1x2x3x

• 1 1/4 c. sifted unbleached white or spelt flour

• 3/4 tsp. sea salt
• 1 egg

• 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
• 3 T coconut oil + more for cooking

Instructions

 

• Begin heating a large skillet over med-high heat.

• In another bowl, whisk the egg, milk, vanilla and oil together.
• Add the milk mixture to the flour mixture, stirring well to combine.
• Drop heat of the skillet down to med-low/med.

Notes

Try adding blueberries or strawberries(fresh or frozen), sliced bananas, or a handful of nuts to the batter before cooking. If substituting the sugar with a liquid sweetener, add it to the milk mixture instead of the flour mixture.
