Buttermilk Blackstone Pancakes (The Best Griddle Pancakes)
A simple, yet delicious, buttermilk griddle pancake recipe made with whole-grain flour, coconut sugar, eggs, and Greek yogurt. Makes about sixteen 3 1/2 inch pancakes.
1 1/2cupsunbleached white whole-wheat flourcan substitute with regular all-purpose flour
3/4cupcoconut sugar *can also use maple sugar or regular sugar, if preferred
1 1/4tspbaking powder
1/2tspbaking soda
1/2tspsalt
1 1/2cupsbuttermilk
1egglightly beaten
1egg white
1tbspplain greek yogurtcan also use sour cream
enough water to make a pouring consistency, about 1/4 cup.
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine flour, coconut sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In a separate bowl, stir together buttermilk, eggs, and yogurt with a whisk; add to flour mixture, stirring just until moist. Add water to achieve desired consistency.
Allow the batter to rest for 5-10 minutes while you prepare the griddle.
Heat the Blackstone, griddle, or skillet over medium heat. Add oil, if needed.
Pour 1/4 cup batter into skillet for each pancake and cook for 1-2 minutes or until tops are covered with bubbles and edges appear cooked. Carefully turn pancakes over and cook for 1-2 more minutes or until bottoms are lightly browned.
Repeat with remaining batter, adding a small amount of oil, if needed, between batches.
Notes
The batter should pour easily but not be runny. Be sure to add the water slowly. You can always add, but not take away. Thinning out too much will affect the texture. Add a small amount at a time and adjust, if needed.*A note about the oil: for griddle pancakes, I like to use ghee, coconut oil, or avocado oil for cooking. Avocado oil is a favorite because the flavor is so neutral and it has a high smoke point so it won't burn. I don't recommend regular butter because it burns easily and can affect the flavor of the pancakes. You can also use cooking spray if you are using the skillet method.
