Ingredients

• 1 cup Cooked brown rice
• 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.75 cup Milk (dairy or non-dairy)
• 1 large Egg
• 1 tablespoon Maple syrup or honey
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons Butter or oil (for cooking)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked brown rice, all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon. Stir to mix the dry ingredients evenly.

Step 2

In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, maple syrup or honey, and vanilla extract until well combined.

Step 3

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter will be slightly thick and textured due to the brown rice.

Step 4

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

Step 5

Scoop about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Use the back of a spoon to gently spread the batter if needed.

Step 6

Cook each pancake for 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles begin to form on the surface and the edges look set. Flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes on the other side, until golden brown.

Step 7

Remove the cooked pancakes from the skillet and place them on a plate. Repeat with the remaining batter, greasing the skillet as needed between batches.

Step 8

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