Ingredients

• 1 cup Whole wheat flour
• 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon (optional)
• 1.25 cups Buttermilk
• 1 Large egg
• 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
• 1 tablespoon Honey or maple syrup
• 1 teaspoon Vegetable oil or butter (for greasing the pan)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and optional cinnamon until well combined.

Step 2

In a separate medium bowl, whisk the buttermilk, egg, melted butter, and honey (or maple syrup) until smooth.

Step 3

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir with a spatula just until combined. Do not overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.

Step 4

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

Step 5

Once the skillet is hot, pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the surface for each pancake, spacing them apart to avoid spreading into each other.

Step 6

Cook the pancakes for about 2-3 minutes, or until bubbles appear on the surface and the edges look set. Flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown on the other side.

Step 7

Transfer the cooked pancakes to a plate and keep them warm while you cook the remaining batter.

Step 8

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