Ingredients
  

  • 140 g whole wheat flour
  • 2 eggs
  • 250 ml buttermilk
  • 20 g coconut oil (melted and lukewarm)
  • 1 tablespoon honey (or agave syrup)
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon ceylon cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon ginger powder
  • ⅓ teaspoon salt

Instructions
 

  • Add all the dry ingredients (flour, salt, spices, baking soda) to one bowl and combine them together.
  • In another bowl combine the buttermilk, eggs, honey, and lukewarm melted coconut oil. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ones just to combine. Don't over-mix the batter. Allow the batter to rest for about 15-20 minutes.
  • Bake on a preheated pan on medium heat. I grease the pan with just a little bit of coconut oil before the first pancake and later I don't add oil anymore. Bake them for about a minute and a half on one side, and less than a minute on the other side. Place them on a pile to keep them warm.
  • Serve with some chia jam, and fresh berries, and drizzle with the sweetener of your choice. Enjoy!

Notes

  • If you want to avoid dark spots on your pancakes, make sure you don't put too much oil.  Wipe away excess oil with some paper towels.
  • From this amount of batter, you should get 10-12 American pancakes, depending on how big you want them to be.
