Dairy Free Buttermilk Pancakes


My amazing niece, Martha, gave me this recipe that she loves to make. I had to ask, "Do they taste good?" LOL and she responded with a huge YES... So please give them a try some weekend.

These loveable little hotcakes will put a smile on your child's face, and with wholesome ingredients like whole wheat, honey and walnuts, they'll put a smile on yours as well.

Serves 6 kids
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: 25 minutes
Ingredients:

* 1½ cups soymilk
* 1 ½ T. apple cider vinegar
* 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
* 1/2 cups wheat flour
* 1/4 cups oat flour
* 2 T. ground walnuts (or other nut meal of choice)
* 1 ½ t. baking powder
* ½ t . baking soda
* ¼ t. salt
* 1/4 cup honey
* 1 egg

Preparation:

1. In a small bowl or pitcher, combine the soymilk and the vinegar, mixing well. Set aside for about 10 minutes, or until mixture has thickened.

2. In a medium-sized bowl, sift together the dry ingredients. In another small bowl, whisk together the honey and egg until combined. Add the egg mixture to the thickened soymilk mixture, mixing well. Add wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until batter is just combined and slightly lumpy.
3. Make the teddybear cakes. Heat a small amount of oil in a heavy bottomed skillet or griddle over medium heat. 1/4 cup at a time, add the batter to the heated skillet, dropping in three circles, one larger one with two smaller ones in the place where teddybear ears would be (try to imagine a clock, and drop the smaller circles at 10 and 2). Flip carefully with a heatproof spatula when bubbles begin to appear on the surface. Serve with honey, powdered sugar, walnuts or fruit.
