Whole Wheat Pancakes with Farmer Cheese
Cooking in the time of quarantine. Stuck at home with your parents? Are you tired of your dad’s lousy old pancakes? Here’s a little video to get you through your morning. These are unusual times, but we can all get through this together! This recipe is for semi-healthy and super-tasty whole wheat pancakes. We’re using a special tumminia flour from Castelvetrano, Sicily thanks to our friends at Gustiamo - but any old whole wheat flour will do. Enjoy! Video below.
Ingredients
1/2 cup of whole wheat flour
1/2 cup of all purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 tbsp brown sugar
a pinch of salt
1 tbsp melted butter
1 cup of milk
1 egg
1 cap of vanilla
1/4 cup of farmer cheese, or ricotta (optional)
Flake salt for finishing
Maple syrup
Mix all of the dry ingredients together in a bowl. Add the wet ingredients and mix well. Add the farmer’s cheese last and gently mix in without breaking it up too much. You want it a little chunky.
Heat up butter in a skillet (a generous amount is recommended) and cook pancakes over medium/high heat until crispy along the edges.
Finish with some nice flake salt and maple syrup. Enjoy!
