Ingredients

• 1 cup acorn flour
• 0.5 cup all-purpose flour
• 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoons salt
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 1.25 cups milk
• 1 egg
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 tablespoon cooking oil or butter (for greasing pan)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the acorn flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar until well combined.

Step 2

In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Step 3

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; it’s okay if the batter is slightly lumpy.

Step 4

Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with a little cooking oil or butter.

Step 5

Using a measuring cup or ladle, pour approximately 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake.

Step 6

Cook the pancakes for about 2-3 minutes until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, then flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown on the other side.

Step 7

Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate and keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed between batches.

Step 8

Serve warm with your favorite toppings such as maple syrup, fresh fruit, or yogurt.
