Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix until combined. It's fine if there are still some lumps in the batter.....very important that you DO NOT over mix the batter.
- Heat the griddle or large nonstick pan over medium heat. Brush with a little melted butter or oil.
- Pour 1/3 - 1/2 cup of batter onto the hot griddle for each pancake. Cook for about 3 minutes, or until bubbles form on the surface and pop.
- Flip the pancake (only once) continue cooking for another 1-2 minutes or until the other side is golden brown. Transfer the pancakes to a plate and repeat with the remaining batter.
- Serve the pancakes with butter and pure maple syrup....enjoy!
