Nut N Honey Pancakes Adapted From Brownstone Diner Panca Recipes

NUT 'N' HONEY PANCAKES ADAPTED FROM BROWNSTONE DINER & PANCA

Steps:

• Combine the buttermilk, oil, eggs, and vanilla syrup in a large mixing bowl and whisk until fully incorporated.
• Whisk the dry ingredients (excluding the nuts) together in another bowl.
• Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined. A few lumps here and there keep the pancakes fluffier.
• Heat the grill until hot and brush with butter.
• Ladle 1/4 cup batter to make 4" diameter pancakes.
• Mix the nuts together. After about 15 seconds, sprinkle a handful of the medley into the center of each pancake.
• Depending on the temperature of the griddle, after 30 seconds to a minute, the edges of the pancake should begin to curl.
• Using a spatula, flip the pancake over. After another 30 seconds or so, the pancake should be a light golden brown and can be removed from the griddle.
• To finish off, drizzle honey over the pancakes and lightly dust with confectioners' sugar.
• Butter can be added to taste, although it's generally not needed because the pancakes are very moist.
• To maintain fluffiness, the pancake batter should be used the same day it is prepared.

GLUTEN-FREE HONEY-NUTS-N-OATS PANCAKES

Steps:

• For the gluten-free flour blend: In a large bowl, whisk together the rice flour, tapioca flour, potato starch, xanthan gum and salt.
• For the pancakes: In another large bowl, whisk together 1 cup of the gluten-free flour blend, almond flour, millet flour, baking powder and salt. (Reserve the remaining gluten-free flour blend for another use.)
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, oil, honey, vanilla extract and almond extract if using; stir into the flour mixture until combined.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet or griddle and grease with butter. Scoop 1/4-cup mounds of batter into the skillet and spread to make 3-inch rounds. Cook over medium heat until the pancakes are golden on the bottom, about 2 minutes. Flip and cook until fluffy and cooked through, about 2 minutes more. Transfer the pancakes to plates and top with the almonds and maple syrup.
