Ingredients:
- 1 cup Ishva Little Millet Flour
- 1/2 cup whole wheat flour (or you can use more millet flour for a gluten-free version)
- 2 tablespoons sugar (adjust to taste)
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk (dairy or plant-based)
- 1/2 cup yogurt (dairy or plant-based)
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons melted butter (or oil)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Optional Add-ins:
- 1/4 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
- 1/4 cup chopped nuts
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
Instructions:
-
Prepare the Dry Ingredients:
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together Ishva Little Millet Flour, whole wheat flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
-
Combine Wet Ingredients:
- In another bowl, mix milk, yogurt, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract until well combined.
-
Mix Together:
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay. If you’re adding blueberries, nuts, or cinnamon, gently fold them into the batter at this stage.
-
Cook the Pancakes:
- Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or oil.
- Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
-
Serve:
- Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings. Fresh fruit, maple syrup, honey, or a dollop of yogurt make excellent choices.
Tips for Perfect Pancakes:
- Consistency: If the batter is too thick, add a little more milk to reach the desired consistency.
- Even Cooking: Ensure your skillet is evenly heated before adding the batter to cook the pancakes evenly.
- Gluten-Free Version: Substitute whole wheat flour with more Ishva Little Millet Flour or any other gluten-free flour.
