Ingredients

• 1.5 cups spelt flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoons salt
• 0.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 1.25 cups milk (dairy or plant-based)
• 1 tablespoons apple cider vinegar (or lemon juice)
• 1 large egg
• 2 tablespoons maple syrup
• 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (or coconut oil), melted
• 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
• 1 tablespoons neutral-flavored oil (for cooking)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium bowl, whisk together the spelt flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Set aside.

Step 2

In a measuring cup or small bowl, combine the milk and apple cider vinegar. Let it sit for 5 minutes to curdle and create a simple buttermilk substitute.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the egg, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and melted butter. Add the curdled milk mixture and stir until combined.

Step 4

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; some lumps are fine.

Step 5

Fold the blueberries into the batter, ensuring they are evenly distributed.

Step 6

Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with oil.

Step 7

Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set.

Step 8

Carefully flip the pancakes and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.

Step 9

Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed.

Step 10

Serve the pancakes warm with additional maple syrup, butter, and fresh blueberries if desired.
