Recipe Tips
Here are a few tips when making them:
- Whole wheat berries can be found at many grocery stores and most natural foods stores.
- Make your own homemade buttermilk to use in this recipe.
- Drizzle a splash of water onto your skillet to see if it’s hot enough before cooking your pancakes. If it sizzles then it’s time to pour on your batter!
- Tiny bubbles forming on the top of your pancakes will show that it is time to flip them over. Continue cooking until both sides are a nice golden brown.
- Keep pancakes warm by storing them in a 200 degree oven until they are ready to be served.
- Use a tablespoon to measure out batter for smaller “silver dollar” pancakes.
Storing Info
STORE leftover pancakes covered in the fridge for up to 5 days.
FREEZE leftover pancakes up to 3 months. Wait until they have cooled completely, then place on wax or parchment paper layering the paper between each individual pancake to keep them from sticking. Then store your stack of pancakes in an airtight container or ziploc freezer bag.
Warm frozen pancakes on a baking sheet in a 375 degree oven for approximately 8-10 minutes before serving.
