The talented Emma Robertson of Emmadime invited me to create a Simply Wholesome recipe for her food series. Plums have been my go to fruit this month and it couldn't have been a better addition to these nutty spelt flour pancakes. See the whole post here. Enjoy!
PLUM PANCAKES
You will need:
-
1 cup Spelt flour
-
1 tbsp light honey
-
2 tbsp baking powder
-
1/4 tsp baking soda
-
1/4 tsp sea salt
-
1 egg, beaten
-
1 cup milk ( I used goat milk)
-
2 tbsp cooking oil (melted butter, ghee or coconut oil)
-
2-3 plums, halved and sliced thinly
Combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda and sea salt in a lrage bowl. In a separate bowl, combine the egg, milk, oil and honey. Now add the wet ingredients to the flour mixture. Stir until everything is moist ~ try not to over stir, small lumps are good.
Heat a lightly oiled cast iron skillet over medium low. Pour 1/2 cup of batter on the sizzling skillet and gently place the plum slices on the top of the pancake. Cook for about 2 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Serve with honey or maple syrup.
* Makes six medium pancakes
