Blue Corn pancakes (serves 2-3, double recipe for more) recipe adapted from hellyeahitsvegan

  • 1/2 cup + 2tbs whole wheat flour
  • 1/2 cup blue corn flour
  • 1 Tbsp sugar
  • 1/2 Tbsp baking powder
  • 1/2 scant tsp salt
  • 2 Tbsp coconut oil, or vegan butter (if using coconut oil use it in solid form)
  • 3/4 c plain, unsweetened vegan milk
  • dash of vanilla

How to:

Sift together whole wheat flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt, then add blue corn flour. With two knives or fork, cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add milk and vanilla and whisk until mixture is relatively smooth, if it is too thick add a bit more milk . Heat an ungreased, nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. It's hot enough when a drop of water flicked across the surface immediately sizzles. Pour  batter into the center of the pan. Cook until the edges start to look dry and visible air bubbles have just started to form near the center of the pancake. Flip and cook the other side until golden. Repeat until remaining batter is used up. Serve hot, with maple syrup or favorite jam.

Enjoy!
